A23G:
Assessment, Enhancement, and Integration of Arctic Observing Systems I Posters


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 63487

Session Description:
The Arctic is undergoing the most rapid changes in the climate system worldwide. These changes are closely connected to the warming of the atmosphere and ocean due to increased greenhouse gas concentration in the atmosphere. This will have wide implications for the Arctic and on the global scale, and knowledge-based planning of the future is required to support international assessments of global challenges such as climate change, scarcity of natural resources, and global-scale hazards. To meet these challenges it is of paramount importance to establish an efficient, sustainable, and integrated Arctic Observing System.

Many efforts have been initiated to build components of an Arctic Observing System, addressing specific thematic areas or regions. We invite contributions on the development, exploitation, enhancement and integration of these various components, as well as on their assessment and gap analysis with respect to requirements dictated by the societal needs.
