Arctic Sense Chapter 1 Complete

We’re happy to report that Arctic Sense Chapter 1: Norwegian Coast is now complete, having sailed from Stavanger to Tromsø.
 
It’s been a remarkable start to the expedition that included an encounter with Hvaldimir the renowned white beluga, listening in on sperm whales in Andenes using our hydrophone array and a hair-raising journey navigating S.V. Barba through Saltstraumen, the world’s strongest tidal current.
