About the Beaufort Gyre Exploration Project<\/h1>\n\t

The Beaufort Gyre is one of the Arctic Ocean’s primary circulation features, storing and transporting freshwater, sea ice, and heat across the Canadian Basin, and is a critical part of the regional and global climate system.<\/p>\n

Since 2003, during a time of unprecedented change, the Beaufort Gyre Exploration Project has provided continuous monitoring of conditions in the region and established a strong foundation that is vital for understanding the current state and future trajectories of the Arctic Ocean environment.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2025 Expedition Dispatches\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\"Beaufort\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t
