The Frozen Bering Sea
On March 6th I left Kodiak on the USCG icebreaker, Polar Sea. We transited west to Unimak Pass and north to St. Lawrence Island as part of the Bering Sea BEST project, a partnership between the North Pacific Research Board and the National Science Foundation. We rolled back into Kodiak on April 7th after 33 days at sea. Here are a few photos from the trip…
