Description:
Shelf-Basin Interactions Research Cruise - Sail with scientists through the Arctic on the Coast Guard icebreaker Healy. There's no narration, but you get to hear the ice crunching under the icebreaker and get a feel for what life is like for the scientists onboard. The Healy was in the news recently when two crew members died while scuba diving under the Arctic ice in August.
