When university researchers partner with SmartICE, we go back to our committee in the community to ask if this is research that they feel will benefit them. If they agree to it, then we follow an approach where our monitoring staff are involved in the research, so they are also getting the benefits and learning how to be researchers.
We're trying to train the next generation of Arctic researchers in the Arctic, as opposed to in the south. There are so many benefits to that. You don't have to teach them about ice, Arctic weather and culture. They come with that already.
It's almost an advantage for those researchers who are perhaps coming from the U.K. or something. I feel like they're getting a lot. It's an exchange of knowledge, so that our monitors are learning more skills and those coming from the U.K. are looking and understanding how they are to work in communities.
