Introduction	Researchers from IMARES and Wageningen UR are on expedition in the Arctic. The researchers will look at the impact of various economic activities in the Arctic. This allows them to map the impact of the oil and gas exploration on nature and the people living in the Arctic. Wageningen UR does research to prevent oil spills in the Arctic. In addition, ballast water systems are tested under arctic conditions. Moreover, bio-indices are examined: how can you use organisms (eg mussels) to monitor the quality of the marine environment.
