One of these is Fridtjof Nansen, <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Norwegian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Norwegian</span></a> explorer, <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/scientist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>scientist</span></a>, and plankton pioneer. He intentionally froze the specially designed ship <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Fram" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fram</span></a> into the ice for 3 years to study <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Arctic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Arctic</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/oceanography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oceanography</span></a> (a whole story on that!), invented water samplers and a closing plankton net named for him, became a diplomat, and was awarded the <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Nobel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nobel</span></a> Peace Prize for refugee works post WWI.<br><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fridtjof_Nansen" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fridtj</span><span class="invisible">of_Nansen</span></a></p>
Oceans Craig<p>not for the first time I've been part of a team doing the southern-most direct ocean observations on the planet... we have just emerged from the Bay of Whales (yes there were <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/whales" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>whales</span></a>). Its where <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Amundsen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Amundsen</span></a> took <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/Fram" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fram</span></a> and set up base for his successful round trip to the pole. It was also mind-meltingly spectacular. We got to around 78o 40'S and took a temperature-salinity profile. Why wouldn't you do all you can to preserve this planet?</p>
