Hudson Life magazine describes Schoeffler and Urbanowicz's PolarTREC expedition to Greenland. It describes the research, the process of pollination, and the challenges of Arctic research.
Working with a PolarTREC research team headed by Christine Urbanowicz, Dr. Schoeffler will study plants and pollinating insects in Greenland. The expedition will focus on consequences of climate change in the Arctic. The public can follow Schoeffler's journey and research via www.polartrec.com/expeditions.
