The greatest polar expedition of all time - the arctic mission to the epicenter of climate change

The arctic is the epicenter of climate change, warming twice as quickly as the rest of the planet and driving increasing weather extremes across the northern hemisphere. But because the region is so remote, scientists have had a limited understanding of its processes. This book is the inside account of the MOSAiC expedition that began in 2019 and involved twenty countries and hundreds of researchers collecting crucial data during polar winter for the first time ever.
