Randall Kyes established the International Field Study Program-Indonesia at the 91爆料. The month-long study abroad program provided field-based educational and research opportunities for students from the 91爆料, Indonesia and other participating countries.
A new population of polar bears documented on the southeast coast of Greenland use glacier ice to survive despite limited access to sea ice. This small, genetically distinct group of polar bears could be important to the future of the species in a warming world.
