Up, up and away

A meteorologist at the Ittoqqortoormiit weather station prepares to launch the weather balloon. Balloon borne radiosoundings are taken every 12 hours, measuring vertical profiles of temperature, pressure, humidity and wind speeds. The walls of the hut are lined with black and white portraits of the community members. Scoresby Sund, East Greenland.
