During the cruise Pacific Gyre customers from the Alfred Wegner Institute, Oregon State University, and the University of Huddersfield deployed 8 sensor chains, 19 Universal Trackers, and 42 Ice Trackers.

After a Year in the Ice, the Biggest-Ever Arctic Science Mission Ends The research ship Polarstern docked in Germany after nearly 13 months studying the rapidly changing region.

Pacific Gyre customer Seth Danielson is part of a group of scientists studying changes in the Pacific Arctic ecosystem.

Evidence suggests potential transformation of the Pacific Arctic ecosystem is underway Exceptionally warm years in 2017–2019 have caused changes in the physical and biological characteristics of the Pacific Arctic Ocean. What these changes mean for the ecosystem and societal consequences will depend on if they are evidence of a transformation or anomalies in the system.
