Broken and discoloured pack ice seen from the ice breaker Kapitan Dranitsyn (1975)
Broken and discoloured pack ice floating in the calm sea in the Arctic, taken from the Russian ice breaker Kapitan Dranitsyn (1975).
On 25 July the ice breaker sailed though the Beaufort Sea, passing small pack ice. Ivy Sharp recorded 'It is interesting that whilst we are many miles from land most of the ice flows are very dirty. This is due to some pollution, but also from the original encounter with land."
