Japan to build new icebreaker for researching Arctic region : The Asahi Shimbun

Arctic sea ice (Provided by the National Institute of Polar Research) The Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) will begin building a new massive icebreaker in fiscal 2021 to conduct research in the north polar region. It comes as Arctic research increases in importance for scientific reasons amid the changing climate and for geopolitical reasons as well, as the melting sea ice reveals new resources and affects global trade routes. The research vessel, which comes with a total price tag of 33.5 billion yen ($306 million), is expected to be as large as Shirase, the icebreaker Japan has used for research in Antarctica.

Extinct Niobium Isotope Reveals Long-Kept Secrets of Solar System

Date Time Extinct Niobium Isotope Reveals Long-Kept Secrets of Solar System Evidence of extinct radionuclides like Niobium-92, which formed before the birth of our Solar System, has been identified in meteorites. Using this evidence, scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) ETH Zürich, National Institute of Polar Research, and Konkoly Observatory pinpointed the initial abundance of Niobium-92 by studying rare rutile and zircon minerals from meteoritic fragments. This allowed them to date events in the early Solar System with greater precision and provide constraints on the production of Niobium-92 in different types of supernova explosions. When an element has a surplus of protons or electrons, it becomes unstable and sheds these additional particles as radiation until it reaches stability. Niobium-92 (

Arctic ocean expedition advances climate modeling

Credit: Jun Inoue (NIPR) As the climate warms and Arctic sea ice retreats, research vessels and commercial ships are sailing into the Arctic Ocean more and more, but the accuracy and sensitivity of regional weather and marine forecasts for these hazardous waters still lag well behind those of their lower-latitude counterparts, with significant differences between regional models. Direct measurements of atmospheric conditions, such as cloud cover and solar radiation, can help to evaluate and improve these models. In a new study published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, a research team led by the National Institute of Polar Research in Tachikawa, Japan tackled this problem using data collected by the ice-strengthened Japanese Research Vessel
