Description and logs from a 2006 expedition to the Bering Sea to study physical and chemical properties of the ice and water, to sample phytoplankton and zooplankton and look at their relation to the food web, to look at fish abundance at the sea ice edge using hydroacoustic methods, and to observe the birds and mammals that need the spring ice environment for their existence and reproduction. The website is student-friendly and has links to scientific information, maps, photos, video, data, articles, links, and a classroom Q&A page.
