Beret Paulsdatter with master’s students on beach cleanup

For the second year in a row, UiT The Arctic University of Norway has invited students to the master’s course FSK-3624 Marine Litter and Arctic Fisheries: Challenges and Solutions to increase knowledge about marine pollution. This year, 19 students participated in the course, which also included a two-day beach clean-up along Rebbenesøya in Troms.

“We thank the crew of R/V Beret Paulsdatter—led by Captain Frode Rønneberg—our technician Ivan Tatone, and Senior Advisor Bo Eide from the Environmental Section of Tromsø Municipality for safe transport, excellent hospitality, and valuable knowledge during the work along our beautiful but vulnerable shorelines.”
