研究北极冰
In this image from July 12, 2011, crew from the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Healy retrieve a supply canister dropped by parachute during the Impacts of Climate on Ecosystems and Chemistry of the Arctic Pacific Environment, or ICESCAPE, mission.
ICESCAPE was a multi-year project sponsored by NASA to determine the impact of climate change upon the health of the Arctic Ocean. The bulk of the research took place in the Beaufort and Chukchi seas in summer 2010 and 2011.

ICESCAPE是NASA赞助的一个多年期项目，旨在确定气候变化对北冰洋健康的影响。大部分研究于2010年和2011年夏季在波弗特和楚科奇海域进行。
