Hello Everyone,
Well it is now day four of this year's CASIMBO campaign. We have had
amazing weather (-15 to -20C), sunny, only the slightest of breezes.
Due to the great weather, we have been very busy with our sampling.
On Day 2, everything came together for the biology sampling and the
work was completed. We also did two sites for our our ice thickness
measurements that day. Another long day for everyone.
Yesterday, we took a slightly shorter day, working only until 7pm, and
had a chance to get caught up on some sleep, but we still collected
some ice cores, did light measurements and completed a ice thickness
measurement site.
Today we did another ice thickness site and more coring and light measurements.
I'll provide more details on the coring and light measurements soon,
but I need to get some work done and then to bed (it is 10:30pm now).
The sites keep moving farther from shore, meaning time spent on the
skidoo is increasing, plus we are all a bit sore from all the work.
Nothing some advil, stretching and good nights sleep won't cure. But
since the weather is good, we will keep pushing, as the weather will
likely be bad eventually (and if not, then we will just have alot of
data/measurements).
Well I am off.
Until next time
