Objective of the Project

The project was focused on organizing a common field course in Polar Hydrology directly in the Arctic. This was based on previous experience with similar projects and also on this year’s pilot field course. Students from both countries shared their field experience and work on common projects. In addition, a workshop/conference was organized in the Czech Republic to also brought students from Norway to meet the students here in the Czech Republic. Other workshop/conference guests attended so that the results of the field course could be presented in front of the wide international scientific society. It is believed that this would strongly enforce future cooperation leading to both further student mobilities and joint research projects.
