Ardmag Jingle Bells Edition : Dec 2022

Christmas 2022

The B.I.G team will draw on their united effort to haul their pulks which will weigh upwards of 85kgs over the dynamic ice of the frozen ocean. Navigating around open water and manoeuvring through the pressure ridges they will burn up to 8,000 calories a day. Teamwork will be everything if they are to be successful. The team will be led by Felicity Aston MBE , record setting polar explorer. Even as it disappears, there is much detail we still do not know about this unique environment. The B.I.G team will be collecting data for several critical research studies throughout the expedition in collaboration with key scientific experts. The data collected will be studied for the presence of Black Carbon, Microplastics also Physical and Psychology DRiFT, Arctic Cloud formations and snow observations.
