The proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Arctic Margins
(ICAM), held in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada, in fall 2003, are now
available online.

Sponsored by Natural Resources Canada, the conference featured
discussions of geology, geodynamics, and resources of the arctic
margins. Session topics included science issues related to the United
Nations Convention on Law of the Sea, geodynamic significance of arctic
magmatism, tectonic and glacial processes, plate tectonics of the Arctic
Ocean, coastal and marine environmental geoscience, and climate change.

ICAM was founded in 1991 by the U.S. Department of the Interior,
Minerals Management Service to advance scientific understanding of the
Arctic and foster international collaboration in arctic research. ICAM
meetings provide a forum for the exchange of information, research
collaboration, and presentation of results. Proceedings of the first
three ICAM meetings are also available on the website. The next ICAM
meeting will be held in Tromso, Norway, on 3-5 September 2007.
