OverviewThis journal documents the work in the summer of 2014 of the Research Experiences for Undergraduates (""REU"") Team, composed of six students, a middle-school science teacher, and two lead scientists, and funded by the National Science Foundation. The REU team was gathered in Svalbard, NO, a group of islands located in the Arctic at 78˚ north latitude, to study how high-latitude glaciers, meltwater streams, and sedimentation in lakes and fjords are responding to changing climate. Follow them in their own words and pictures through rifle training (polar bear country!), survival suit training, wildlife tracking, 8- to 12-hour workdays in small boats on the fjord and on foot on the glaciers, and, finally, packing up all their data and mud samples for shipment back to their home universities in the States.
