The Applied Physics Laboratory Ice Station 2007 (APLIS07) is a U.S. and Japanese laboratory dedicated to the study of global climate change. It is located on an ice flow about 300 kilometres (190 mi) north Prudhoe Bay (Sagavanirktok), Alaska. It was first established in March 2011.[1] It is owned and administered by the International Arctic Research Center at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.
