Some research stations are located in the Arctic, such as the Northeast Science Station,[1]McGill Arctic Research Station[2] and Himadri Station.[3] Some stations in the Arctic are manned drifting ice stations, built on the ice of the high latitudes of the Arctic Ocean.[4]
Many nations also have research stations located in Antarctica; Showa Station, Halley and Troll are examples.
There are also various research stations doing field ecological research such as the Tiputini Biodiversity Station in the Ecuadorian Amazon, Comoé National Park Research Station in the Savannas of North-eastern Côte d'Ivoire or the Gombe Research Station in Tanzania, where famous chimpanzee research was conducted by Jane Goodall.
