Water sampling at an ice-covered Lake Almberga

17 November 2020

At Lake Almbergasjön, Abisko Scientific Research Station, the two research engineers Niklas Rakos and Erik Lundin are getting into the winter protocol for water sampling. The ice on the lake is 15cm thick and the visibility is more than 4m even with the sparse light at this latitude this time of the year.
