UPDATE:

The University of Edinburgh is no longer able to host the planned consecutive meetings of the IGS British Branch and UK Antarctic Science Conference this coming September.

We are now working with the IGS Early-Career Glaciology Group (EGG) and colleagues in the National

SIOS will offer a training course on how to effectively use remote sensing data acquired from satellites, from the air or from the ground, and their associated tools and software in the context of terrestrial research in Svalbard. The course is intended for field scientists, Ph.D. students and

We are sorry to announce that the 50th Arctic Workshop that was rescheduled for 29 August – 1 September 2020 has been postponed until next year: 15 – 17 April 2021.

Our decision was made in response to concerns about international and domestic travel expressed by many of you, as well as the

Satellite records from the mid 1980s onward provide the opportunity to examine surface water distribution and change in permafrost regions. This is important because the nature of permafrost can create conditions where change is likely to occur but hydrology conditions can be highly variable. We

Hosted by Commonwealth North's Arctic Policy Study Group, the event will explore the future of Arctic Ocean governance, the Central Arctic Oceans Agreement, perspectives on international cooperation, Alaska's role in cooperative efforts, and international fisheries issues that impact Alaska. The

Join the Migration in Harmony Research Coordination Network for a webinar with Dr. Andreas Østhagen on Svalbard hub for Arctic fisheries.

As warming oceans push the range of fisheries further north, new opportunities for Arctic fisheries are emerging. But this opportunity comes with a

Spring and summer in Interior Alaska is now warmer, and in recent years wetter than in the past, and the impacts of these changes are affecting the lives and livelihoods of Alaskans. Persistent rains keep water levels high of rivers but potentially accelerate permafrost melt. Warmer springs and

BEPSII is an open network for international knowledge exchange related to Biogeochemcial Exchanges Processe at Sea Ice Interface. BEPSII aims to quantify the role of sea ice in polar ecosystem services – from biodiversity impacts to climate change – and communicate these globally-relevant issues

The tools and techniques for making monthly and season scale climate forecasts are rapidly changing, with the potential to provide useful forecasts at the month and longer range. We will review recent climate conditions around Alaska, review some forecast tools and finish up the Climate Prediction
