What is a Boreal Forest ?
Also called the 'Taiga', boreal forest is the world's largest biome where freezing temperatures occur for 6 to 8 months!
Now, Imagine looking over a vast stretch of Arctic tundra with the cold wind on your face and wondering:
What kind of organisms can I find here?
How do they manage to live in this cold harsh environment?
How are they affected by climate change?
This workshop brings to you a 360-degree overview of life from the white forest.
These research students from the University Centre in Svalbard live, work and explore the arctic.
They will connect with you to help you learn about the common species, the general ecology and interesting historical information from the Arctic.
