Hence, at present we do not have a good understanding of ocean temperature and sea ice evolution during the past centuries.

The shipping industry supports 40% of the entire global economy, is responsible for the transport of 90% of all goods globally, and plays a vital role in supporting the economy, environment and well being of Arctic communities. Increased Arctic marine connectivity could enhance employment and economic development opportunities for Inuit but could also increase risks related to environmental and cultural sustainability, safety and security, and present sovereignty tensions. We wish to explore the potential for ship based pollution and transport of non-indigenous species caused by increased maritime traffic throughout the Arctic.

| Global climate change is warming Arctic landscapes and thawing permafrost, which may lead to increased release of the greenhouse gas methane and have global implications. Numerous studies show the large variability of methane fluxes from Arctic soils, and there are large uncertainties about how methane fluxes evolve with climate change. These uncertainties are mainly due to a lack of understanding of the numerous interacting processes that control methane release including the role of the microbiome, the soil hydrological gradient, soil mineralogy, and the contribution of different water sources to the soil. The goal of the survey is to study the influence of permafrost hydrology and thaw dynamics on the microbiome, its composition, distribution, and be used to inform models for methane turnover in soils and to evaluate model simulations. Further, microbial enrichments are planned to study the process of anaerobic methane oxidation and the physiology of the according microorganisms in detail. | Disko Island |
