   Hi Josef,

   i am deeply impressed by your project; i am not a scientist but looking forward to getting the results of your plankton comparison study. I have never been to the Arctic but i can imagine that you will never forget this exceptional experience.
   Wish you a lot of fun during the next days and a lot of success with regard to your music composition. Most probably this will reflect your
   personal feeling during this trip. Good luck !!!

   “Hello Jozef, I am working with your father, he told me you have this incredible adventure, I see it. I like you to have a queston for me, what is the optimum condition for plankton generation, what difference will it be in the future?”

   Ey up Joe? Neil here (the guy who shares lifts to work with your dad). I hope you’re soaking up every second on this trip of a lifetime. I don’t know much about science – I should have stopped squirting kids with pipettes at school and payed more attention – but what is it about plankton that can be used to monitor the environment? Is it the population of plankton or some characteristic you’re looking at? Also, before you collect any data, do you have any expectations of what you might see?

   I can identify with plankton; sometimes working here we feel like plankton – bottom of the food chain trying to cling to life in what some might call a far out northern place!

   Good luck and make the most of it. Nothing much happening in Barrow. It’s going to rain all day Sunday.

    Hello Stefan,

    Thank you for showing interest in the project. I have no doubt that I wont forget this experience either.

    Hello Anna,

    I stayed up in the Arctic for the best part of 2 weeks and I enjoyed every moment.

    Hello Jamie,

    You don’t need a new pet because you have enough animals already! Thanks for supporting me and being a good mate.

    Hello Miss Lucas,

    Thanks also for showing support. Do i have to catch up on loads of RE work now? Hopefully we’re all going to swap our pictures so I’ll give you them when i have everyone’s pictures.

    Hello Neil,

    We were looking at how plankton were affected by different levels of salinity. We were estimating populations based on samples taken from different sites with different salinities. We are still going through results, although we have found that species of plankton varied greatly from salinity and depth.
