Steps into the Silence: Arctic Research in Action

by Kseniiia Ivanova

In the muted light of an Arctic morning, researchers make their way across the gravel-covered coast of Dolgy Island, Barents Sea. This photo reflects the isolation, physical effort, and determination involved in conducting fieldwork in the High North. With minimal infrastructure and rapidly changing weather conditions, Arctic science relies on the resilience of its researchers and their commitment to understanding fragile polar environments.
