White Ocean, enter into the polar base

White Ocean, enter into the polar base

 

A new universe arrives in the City of the Ocean !

 

The contribution of science to the understanding of climate change is essential.

 

The City of the Ocean is interested in ice and ice-caps because of the important role they play in relation to the ocean.

 

For this reason, it is useful to better understand this polar world that is both a witness of the past (shown through the studies of core samples) and one of the key participants in the evolution of the climate.

 

Do you know at what temperature ocean water freezes ? If the ice-caps melted, what would be the impact on the ocean ? How does an iceberg form ? What are the differences between the North Pole and the South Pole ? What do you know about the lake Vostok drilling ?
