Update from the NICE Project in Svalbard


We have now completed the first year's fieldwork in the NICE project in Svalbard. We have had several successful field trips, including the tagging of char in July, retrieval and deployment of new receivers in August, and capture and tagging of salmon in September. We have also contributed to teaching students at UNIS. We look forward to new challenges in 2025, where we will also be tagging pink salmon.

Svalbard is in the high North at 78 degrees, a stunning and fascinating, yet somewhat challenging location to work in at times.
