Community-lead Sampling CH 2021
In March 2022 fieldwork was carried out on Southampton Island which included bear den surveys and sampling of snow from polar bear tracks and filtering of snow melt from polar bear footprints ‘in the field’.
As part of this work we also collected some footage of our collaborators collecting samples of snow from polar bear footprints and the collection of two micron filters from the snowmelt of polar bear tracks in ‘the field’. These were meant to be compiled into instructional videos, and currently collected on a youtube channel that is can be accessed through this link only.
