Science and stories from literally the coolest places on the planet! It’s said that the poles are the thermometer for the rest of the planet- what happens to the rest of us, has already been happening there for years. It’s easy with the state of the world currently to bunker down in a little private bubble, but its more essential than ever that we broaden our horizons and remember that there’s a world out there that is incredible- and needs us! And if that sounds too heavy for you then instead why not join us to escape as we take to on audial adventures to these strange and remote and beautiful places? We’ll speak to guests who’ve looked polar bears in the eye, who drive 12k ton ships through ice 9ft thick or who spend years doing science with no-one but three other people and thousands of penguins for company! These are Polar Times we live in. Join us, and we’ll take you there! An APECS Production (Association of Polar Early Career Scientists). Music credits: ”Scuba” - Metre Unaltered License: CC BY-NC-SA

Welcome back for the fourth episode of Sense of the Arctic, a podcast miniseries from the APECS Science and Diplomacy Project Group in collaboration with the Polar Times.
In this episode, we had the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Tero Mustonen, a Finnish researcher at the University of Eastern Finland and the president of SnowChange cooperative. He was also a lead author of the 6th IPCC assessment released in 2021, which had the first attempt at including traditional and indigenous knowledge in the report's findings.
We spoke about winter seining, SnowChange, the past and present impacts of colonisation and the importance and differences of community-driven research in the Northern European context. He also gave some sound advice on how and when to do research in the polar systems.
