Discover the untold stories of Greenland beyond what you see in the news – a journey into the heart of this unique land.
Glaciologists Douglas Mair and James Lea provide an overview of the island of Greenland based on over 20 years of combined research experiences, reflecting on their personal and professional attachments to an increasingly important corner of the globe, at the heart of 21st century global political strategy and central to understanding the current and future impacts of Climate Change.
