CEOS exciting news! The Sea-Ice Experimental Research Facility (SERF) is home to UM’s first Solar Panel Installation (8kW DC) that generates power for SERF and feeds excess energy back into the Manitoba Hydro grid. A big thanks to the UM Strategic Initiatives. UMRiddellFaculty

Maeva Gremaud, PhD from Switzerland, is simulating ozone & mercury depletion events at a mesocosm scale at SERF. For this she has 2 acrylic tubes, one blocking the UV & the other not blocking UV, in order to measure the difference in depletion related to sunlight.UMRiddellFaculty

Dr. Durell Desmond (UofM) and Fernando Sanchez Quete (McGill University) captured these stunning shots of the Churchill landscape. The GENICEII project is focused on studying oil spills in the Arctic using Churchill Marine Observatory facilities. UMRiddellFaculty

🌍 Happy Earth Day! 🌱 Today, we’re excited to celebrate Debbie Armstrong at CEOS as the recipient of this year’s Staff Sustainability Award! Debbie’s dedication to promoting environmental science and leading sustainable initiatives is inspiring.

University of Manitoba scientists and others from across the country are looking to extract an ice core from Nunavut's Muller Ice Cap, capturing thousands of years of data with it.

CEOS researchers, Dorthe Dahl-Jensen and David Babb sat down with the news to talk about the 600 m ice core they are recovering from Muller Ice Cap. To listen to the full interviews, check out the link in our bio! 🌍❄️

Three CEOS members of the Department of Environment and Geography, ran a field course on Lake Winnipeg last week. The course involved class lectures, followed by 3 days aboard the MV Namao, examining water quality gradients from the Red and Winnipeg Rivers #Fieldtrip

What would happen if there were an oil spill in the Arctic? UM researchers are working to find out so we can be ready. This past winter, a team from the (CEOS UM) completed the first-ever controlled oil spill experiment at the Churchill Marine Observatory (CMO).
