Science...

Nice weather since yesterday, also we were able to use the CTD again at agreed locations (at 12 and 7 km from the boat), looking for brines (a lot!), and to travel across the icepack with the icemeter. This instrument also allowed us to check the ice thickness (around 70cm) all over the site that welcomed the seismometers last week. Today, a complete snow layer analysis at usual location, 1km from Vagabond, close to the great glacier front. In the same time, France finished setting up our solar panels, which, when it is sunny, are giving more energy than the wind generator, even when strong wind! Nice trip with the dogs then, before hard work to get out from under the snow, dog house, snow shoes, skis, sticks, frozen in ice for some time. Soon we will have to think about our dinghy...
