Yesturday I started my measurements in field. It was a beautiful day with a lot of sun and warm temperatures. Really surprising that the arctic June weather allows you to work in tank top and walking around barefoot, i.e. climate warming ;)
We started to prepare everything at 9 and came to the field quite late, like 11.30 or something. The original plan was to measure on 48 plots, 24 on each side of a snowfence. Unfortunately the snowfence works very well and the snow hadn't melted yet, so I only had 24 plots to measure. We, me and Riikka, were back at the station at 18, so it was a quite long day (I also wrote an exam from 07.00 to 09.00..).
Well everything work well and I'm glad it is finally summer! Enjoy the pictures!

| Not very green yet. But very smelly, so there are defenitly VOCs. |

| One block at the snowfence experiment. As I said, it is still snow downwind from the fences. |

| A very nice view from the site. Sea, icebergs and the horizon. |

| The snowfence works! |

| I think that I took the wrong plane, and ended up in Africa instead of the arctic. |
