The Trustees of Dartmouth College received a $1,740,512 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation on February 1, 2021 to develop ICE MASS BALANCE BUOYS FOR THE ARCTIC OBSERVING NETWORK. The goal of the project is to observe and understand changes to the Arctic sea ice cover through January 31, 2026. The grant is funded through the NSF's Polar Programs, which aims to strengthen understanding of polar regions through basic research best or only conducted in these environments. Specifically, Dartmouth College will deploy ice mass balance buoys to collect data on ice thickness, melt rates and freeze-up processes across the Arctic. Insights from the buoy network will enhance knowledge of sea ice dynamics and responses to climate change in the region.
