The GlommaDyppen community not only facilitates great outdoor swimming experiences but also invests significant effort into making these experiences as safe as possible. Over several years, we have collaborated with researchers from Akershus University Hospital, Oslo University Hospital, the University of Oslo, the Norwegian Armed Forces, and SINTEF to develop new knowledge about how cold-water swimming affects the body.
The first scientific article from this collaboration has now been published. In this study, we examine how swimming in cold water affects the manual dexterity of swimmers wearing wetsuits.
