Advanced Research and Invention Agency: Antarctic
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what research programmes the Advanced Research and Invention Agency is conducting in Antarctica.
Answered by Kanishka Narayan
As part of the Advanced Research and Invention Agency’s (ARIA) ‘Scoping Our Planet’ Opportunity Space, ARIA is funding two research projects in Antarctica.
The first project aims to assess the role of ocean mixing on Antarctic ice melt and sea level rise. The second project seeks to better understand how glacial meltwater is exported from the Antarctic glacial margins to the open ocean.
More information on ARIA’s funded projects can be found on their website.
