The project will conduct laboratory experiments at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) to study how salinity, temperature, and pressure affect ice formation in frozen soils. Fieldwork in Grise Fiord will document local climate, landscape, and water conditions that influence ground-ice formation and help interpret the laboratory results.
