The US Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) Office
announces the launch of the new SCAR website. To view the updated
website, please go to: http://usscar.tamu.edu.

The new and improved US SCAR Office website is easy to navigate and
allows viewers to quickly find specific items of interest. The site
provides links to: US SCAR Team contact information, a guide to SCAR,
data and information resources, early career opportunities, SCAR
communications plans, SCAR partners network, SCAR Scientific Research
Programs, and a photo gallery.

The site has many direct links to the main SCAR website and provides the
latest information on SCAR News and Forthcoming Events. ANSWER email
digest items are posted on the website's front page directly above a
series of "Links of Interest."

SCAR Scientific Research Programs are highlighted and the site provides
easy access to each program's home web site.

On occasion, the web site will be used to directly solicit input on
important issues before SCAR from the US Antarctic community.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Polar Programs Antarctic
Division provides a majority of the financial support that allows US
scientists to participate in SCAR. Other US governmental entities with
missions in Antarctica are the US Department of State, the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the US Geological Survey
(USGS), the National Aeronautic and Space Administration (NASA) and the
US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

The SCAR Team encourages you to bookmark the site and regularly view it
for the latest information on SCAR and US participation in SCAR. You are
also encouraged to subscribe to and use the ANSWER email digest system
to communicate important items to the US Antarctic community.

As always the SCAR Team welcomes your feedback, criticisms, and
suggestions on how to make the US SCAR Office more useful to you.
