Welcome to the URPP GCB Eastern Siberia Expedition 2013
In 2013 we are visiting the Kytalyk area in eastern Siberia.
The goal of the Eastern Siberia Expedition 2013 is to assess global change drivers on biodiversity.
The expedition is embedded in the University of Zurich Research Priority Program on ‘Global Change and Biodiversity‘.
The expedition lasts from June 24 through August 18, 2013.
We are looking forward seeing you frequently visiting this site!
