(Alfred Gabriel) 1850 1921 Nathorst, Alfred Gabriel Polarforskningen Produced by Ronnie Sahlberg and Project Runeberg (www.runeberg.org) "Polarforskningen" by A. G. Nathorst is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This book delves into the extensive explorations and scientific research conducted in the polar regions, particularly focusing on the North Pole and the history of polar discoveries. It addresses both the challenges and the significance of understanding these icy frontiers for the advancement of scientific knowledge. In the book, Nathorst discusses various polar expeditions and the notable figures involved, emphasizing the scientific goals of exploration over mere geographical conquest. He critiques the fascination with reaching the North Pole, arguing that the scientific endeavors to study the climate, geology, and ecosystems of these areas provide far greater benefits for humanity. The text highlights the contributions of Swedish researchers to polar science, presents a history of polar exploration, and outlines the profound implications of these expeditions on our understanding of earth sciences, such as geology, glaciology, and biology, culminating in a strong argument for the value of continued research in these remote areas.
