HYDROKITE Essais en altitude d’une sonde CTD L’acquisition de données scientifiques à grande profondeur et sur des longues distances est complexe, especially when the weather conditions are difficult. A continuous data acquisition device has been developed by HEPIA (Geneva engineering school) with the support of SPI (Swiss Polar Institute), le fonctionnement …
SUMMIT MONT BLANC Recherche de microplastiques sur les pentes du Mont-Blanc (Bossons glacier and summit) The objective of the project is to better understand the intensity of the atmospheric transfer of microplastics on the Mont-Blanc massif., more particularly at the Bossons glacier, et de déterminer ainsi un gradient vertical des concentrations présentes à la surface …
Dauphiné Released Article – 24 June 2019 – Antoine CHANDELLIER We knew that the oceans were contaminated by plastic and micro-debris that poison marine organisms, now researchers are looking into the presence of this pollution in an environment that is far removed from the sources of emissions : altitude lakes.

POLARQUEST UNE EXPÉDITION SCIENTIFIQUE AUTOUR DE L’ARCHIPEL DU SPITZBERG Dans le cadre du 90e anniversaire du crash du dirigeable Italien piloté par Umberto Nobile au Svalbard (Spitzberg), an expedition was mounted in 2018 aiming to tour the archipelago. The boat, real floating laboratory, a permis par ailleurs la réalisation de toute une …
Passive igloo Démontrer par l’exemple ! The project leads in 2016 and 2017 by Peter Gallinelli demonstrated that it is possible to pass 10 months in the north of Greenland in autonomy in a passive boat, using local renewable resources. The boat, real floating laboratory, a permis par ailleurs la réalisation de toute une …
CLEAN MONT BLANC Research for microplastics in the Mont-Blanc massif The Mont-Blanc massif, with its 28 peaks over 4000 m, constitutes a privileged site for the study of plastic pollution carried by the atmosphere. Clean Mont-Blanc is a scientific research project on the theme of microplastics (diffuse air pollution). Porté par AQUALTI et SUMMIT …
