Ocean science bar: Arctic Sea Ice - the big picture and the small cracks
Arctic sea ice is shrinking fast, reshaping the Arctic Ocean and its role in the global climate system. As the ice retreats and changes character, its influence on ecosystems and societies is shifting in ways we are only beginning to grasp. In this event, three researchers will show how climate prediction and sea‑ice modelling shed light on what the Arctic of tomorrow may look like.

Hazards meeting series
Hazards Discussion Meeting Series 2026 – Your science and society What? Science talk on a paper or project, followed by an open discussion on how the presented science can reach “society”. In the open discussion we will address the target “society” audience for the paper/project, how the main outcomes can be best communicated, and who at BCCR can help. Who can attend? Open to all BCCR. When? Every second Wednesday of the month, 11–12h, in Bjerknes Meeting Room (3rd floor). 8 April Ingrid Sætersdal (NORCE) Fjords / ecosystems / eDNA Paper 13 May Mats Venning (NORCE) Climate Services Paper 10 June Victoria Miles (NSERC) Urban climate hazards FTI
