2023 in review
03.01.2024, 09:19
Another year is behind us and 2024 is raring to go. 2023 has been a year of new records, from heatwaves, both marine and on land, as well as record breaking CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. But it has also been a year of progress, among other things the East Greenland Ice-Core Project reached bedrock in Greenland for the first time. So, before we take on the challenges and possibilities of a new year, let’s take a moment to look back on the year of 2023.
