As part of a contribution to Iceland's Chairmanship in the Arctic Council, The Icelandic Met Office is hosting an Arctic Met Summit on May 19th, 2021, in conjunction with the 13th Ministerial Meeting of the Arctic Council:
· Showcasing the significance of a Pan-Arctic collaboration in Earth System Obsertvations and Modelling.
· WMO's Arctic services presented by the Secretary-General, Petteri Taalas
· Sessions on the importance of creating a bridge between science and community
The webinar called “Stronger together”: European cooperation for Polar science and society - The Integrated European Polar Research Programme will take place on 11th June 2020, 10:00 – 13:00 CEST by a Zoom videoconference.
The agenda for the EU-PolarNet Webinar on the European Polar Research Programme is now available on the EU-PolarNet website: https://www.eu-polarnet.eu/news-and-events/conferences-and-workshops/

The Synoptic Arctic Survey (SAS) – International Planning and Coordination Workshop
May 15-16, 2019
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA
There will be an open coordination and planning workshop to continue planning the Synoptic Arctic Survey (SAS) project on May 15-16, 2019 at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA. The SAS is a developing international program envisioned to mount a coordinated, multi-nation, oceanographic field based effort on a Pan Arctic scale over two summer seasons (2020-2021). The key objective is to achieve a quasi-synoptic baseline understanding of the fundamental structure and function of the linked Arctic carbon-ecosystem-physical systems that will permit detection of ongoing and future changes. More information and the international science plan is available at http://www.synopticarcticsurvey.info/.
The goals of the workshop include planning coordinated field sampling, international data sharing, education including graduate student participation, post field-season data synthesis, public outreach, and involvement of indigenous communities and identifying additional measurements (e.g., atmospheric measurements) or approaches (e.g., modeling) that would contribute to accomplishing the goals of the SAS. The SAS is a ground-up effort and wide participation, of all scientific career stages, including graduate students, are welcome, as is the participation of science managers across multiple disciplines and representatives of indigenous communities and organizations.
The participation of early career scientists is particularly encouraged. Limited travel support is available for early career scientists, both from US and international sources to participate in the workshop. Early career scientists here are defined as post-doctoral investigators, untenured, or tenure-track equivalent individuals within 5 years of their initial appointment. To apply for support, individuals should send a short 2-3 page CV and a brief statement of how their research interests align with the SAS scientific questions to cashjian@whoi.edu by April 15. The applications will be evaluated by the US SAS steering committee and decisions made as soon as possible after the deadline to expedite travel planning.
Planning to attend? Please send a confirmation and the following information to sasworkshop2019@gmail.com as soon as practical and at the latest by April 30: Name, Affiliation, Address, Country, Email address, Phone number, Position, Early Career (yes/no; even if not applying for support). Additional logistical details will be provided to these registered participants.
Please contact Carin Ashjian (cashjian@whoi.edu) if you have questions.
