    Two individuals are walking across a snow and ice-covered surface in front of a U.S. Coast Guard icebreaker vessel. The scene appears to be in a polar or Arctic environment with low visibility due to fog or blowing snow. One person is dressed in a red survival suit and blue hard hat, while the other wears dark clothing and a silver hard hat.

    ARCTIC OCEAN – Lee Freitag (left) and Eric Boget pull a sled of science equipment Sunday, Sept. 30, 2018, about 350 miles northeast of Barrow, Alaska. Freitag and Boget are scientists studying stratified oceans dynamics in the Arctic. U.S. Coast Guard Cutter Healy (WAGB-20) is underway in the Arctic with about 100 crew members and 30 scientists to deploy sensors and semi-autonomous submarines to study how environmental factors affect the water below the ice surface for the Office of Naval Research. The Healy, which is homeported in Seattle, is one of two ice breakers in U.S. service and is the only military ship dedicated to conducting research in the Arctic.
