Meltwater release of heavy metals from glacier to ocean in a changing Arctic (METALLICA)


METALLICA unites an international interdisciplinary team to provide transformational understanding of the glacial drivers, transport routes and fjord ecosystem impacts of toxic heavy metals in a changing Arctic. 
Our findings will feed novel tools and models directly to policy makers, with potential for high societal impact.
