The summer school will offer the opportunity for scientists, young researchers and students to share their views and experiences on the climate change and impacts on sub-polar ecosystems, laying down the basis for future joint research.
Reiner Giesler is a professor
at the University of Umeå in the Ecology and Environmental sciences department.
He is the founder and the director of
the CIRC (Climate Impact Research Centre) which is partly located at Abisko
research station. This morning he held a lecture at the summer school about
effects of climate change on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. In the
afternoon he led the excursion to Mont Njulla. Before the excursion, Marc Lebouvier from the CNRS in France spoke about the impact of
invasive species and climate change on sub-antarctic terrestrial ecosystems.
This evening we had the last
group presentations. Group 4 is composed by Maria Ingimarsdóttir, Elefhteria
Palkopoulou and Artabaze Shams.
