Viking scientists provide invaluable insight
TOGETHER WITH OUR SCIENTIFIC PARTNERS,
Viking will continually contribute to meaningful
science while exploring the most remote parts of
the world Our Science & Sustainability division
is led by Dr Damon Stanwell-Smith, a marine
biologist with a 27-year career managing polar
research, including several years in the Antarctic
Our Viking scientific advisory committee is
chaired by Professor Julian Dowdeswell, former
Director of the Scott Polar Research Institute, and
consists of several leading scientific institutions in
atmospheric sciences, botany, glaciology, marine
biology and ornithology
OUR ONBOARD EXPEDITION PROGRAM is
designed to prepare guests for their onshore
experiences, with up to 36 experts accompanying
each journey including our Viking Expedition
Team and Viking scientists
"During my cruise, I find it
somewhat dizzying to learn
about the many different
strands of study and how
they link in with various
institutions – the Cornell
Lab of Ornithology and the
US National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration
among them."
