π Welcome north of the Arctic Circle! This is Abisko Scientific Research Station, a hotspot (pun intended) for scientists from all over the world. π²π‘οΈ
The station has been a hub for climate and environmental research ever since 1913. These days, scientists working here can explore how changing conditions like carbon dioxide levels, UVB radiation and snow depth affect ecosystems. π³βοΈπ
Right now, there are 126 ongoing research projects here β about everything from birch trees to glaciers. π‘β¨
