SEDNA Beaufort Sea Ice

Hi Robert,

Have you seen any evidence of life on the ice such as birds, algae or insects?

Hi Katie,We have seen Arctic fox footprints, ( this evening Bruce Elder and Jackie Richter-Menge saw the fox!), and under the ice there have been jellyfish, some algae associated with the underside of the ice, and small shrimp like creatures. We haven't seen any birds or insects.
