SASKATOON - The Canadian Light Source Synchrotron is getting help from a 14-year-old Saskatoon high school student.

Daniel Peters will be collecting soil samples in the Canadian Arctic and Western Greenland as he heads out on a 75-student expedition up north.

Daniel says the soil samples will be used for acid rain research at the synchrotron.

Students on Ice is a polar education trip where students from across the world go on a 13-day trip around the Arctic.

The trip will start in Iqaluit, then head north up along Baffin Island in a Russian icebreaker.

They will also visit the coast of Western Greenland.
