Airmen assigned to the 3rd Air Support Operations Squadron (3 ASOS) participated in an Arctic Familiarization field exercise at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska, Oct. 26-28, 2022. This exercise trained and tested Tactical Air Control Party (TACP) and Special Warfare Mission Support (SWMS) on their ability to perform combat field operations and survive in Alaska’s arctic environment.

It is well established that deep-sea ecosystems living in natural cold seep sites around the world thrive in areas where their only food source is limited to the uptake of carbon through chemosynthesis. However, it wasn't until now that we discovered how these natural methane seep sites influenced the diet of Arctic ecosystems in shallow-marine areas, such as the Barents Sea.

IARPC Collaborations is seeking applications for team leadership positions from enthusiastic non-federal members of the Arctic research community who are excited about the activities outlined in the Arctic Research Plan and Implementation Plan. We encourage people in all career stages and from diverse backgrounds to apply. To learn about the teams seeking leadership and the process for applying, visit the IARPC Collaborations website. Applications are due by December 1.

On Monday, November 21 at 11am AKT / 3pm ET, please join the Interagency Arctic Research Policy Committee and the National Science Foundation for a program manager chat focused on the Navigating the New Arctic (NNA) program. NNA program officers will provide an overview of the recently released solicitation, highlight major changes, review goals of the NNA program, and answer questions in breakout rooms focused on different proposal tracks.

IARPC is pleased to present the new implementation plan for the Arctic Research Plan 2022-2026. While the Arctic Research Plan, released last December, provides high-level strategy and goals for the next five years of Arctic research, this new implementation plan provides specific and tangible objectives and deliverables for the next two years. The research described in this implementation plan will address societal issues that challenge life in Alaska and the Arctic. This research will support managing risks, mitigating hazards, maintaining community health and wellbeing, and adapting to an evolving climate and ecosystem.

Please join IARPC for a webinar on introducing this new plan and how members of the Arctic research community can get involved.

The Arctic Futures Symposium is an annual conference that brings together Arctic stakeholders in Europe's capital to discuss issues of importance to them. The annual Arctic Futures Symposium brings together local and national policymakers, Arctic indigenous peoples, natural and social scientists, academics, and representatives of industries operating in or with interests in the Arctic.

This event is part of the Arctic Studies Center’s Ernest “Tiger” Burch Memorial Lecture Series. Viking women have been portrayed as members of the society, mostly concerned with the household and childrearing work but rarely standing out as exceptional players in their communities. These views are slowly being challenged in today’s scholarship, particularly regarding the Viking communities established across the Norse diaspora in Iceland, the Faroes, and Greenland after ca. 800 AD.

AGU Fall Meeting is the most influential event in the world dedicated to the advancement of Earth and space sciences. Every year, AGU Fall Meeting unites the Earth and space science community to share findings, connect like-minded scientists from around the world, and advance our profession and shared passion for the impact of science.

The Arctic Circle Abu Dhabi Forum is organized by Arctic Circle and the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE) in association with the United Arab Emirates Ministry of Climate Change and Environment. Theme: Third Pole - Himalayas and the Arctic Model. The melting of the Third Pole / Himalayan glaciers carries water security implications for 1.65 billion people. The region will experience profound ecological and geophysical transformations as a result of climate change. As outlined in the 2019 Hindu Kush Himalaya Assessment, the scope of these consequences is not fully understood and scientific data is lacking.

The key topics of Arctic Frontiers 2023 will reflect transformation, modeling, adaptation, and development in the rapidly changing global landscape. Furthermore, business development in viable industries and Arctic health will feature, due to their relevance with the concept of Moving North. While looking at both the long-term and short-term impacts of the environmental, humanitarian, and economic crises, looking for potential solutions will be a key driver of the Arctic Frontiers 2023: Moving North conference. 

The National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis, Santa Barbara, California hosts this in-person workshop will provide researchers with an overview of reproducible and ethical research practices, steps and methods for more easily documenting and preserving their data at the Arctic Data Center, and an introduction to programming in R. Special attention will be paid to qualitative data management, including practices working with sensitive data. Example datasets will draw from natural and social sciences, and methods for conducting reproducible research will be discussed in the context of both qualitative and quantitative data.

This event is organized by the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC)and hosted by the Austrian Polar Research Institute (APRI). This event provides opportunities for coordination, cooperation, and collaboration between the various scientific organizations involved in Arctic research. It was initiated by the IASC in 1999. This event includes a Science Symposium. These symposia create a platform for exchanging knowledge, cross-fertilization, and collaboration and attract scientists, students, policymakers, and other professionals from all over the world.

The Arctic360 annual conference brings together Northern and Indigenous governments, institutions, and corporations; global financial institutions, state leaders; mining, innovation, and other industry leaders; and Arctic experts from Canada and around the circumpolar North to advance the conversation and foster action for building a sustainable, peaceful, and prosperous Arctic region.

The conference will include presentations discussing technical solutions, innovations, and advancements of all aspects of the offshore energy industry. Participants will include operators, research, vendors, and stakeholders. The experience of the last 50 years in the Arctic will be in attendance. That expertise and knowledge is available to move forward and support energy, mining, renewables, marine transport, tourism, and other activities in the harshest environments.

In lead up to its 35th anniversary in 2025, the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC) is coordinating a multi-year planning process for the Fourth International Conference on Arctic Research Planning (ICARP IV) that will engage Arctic researchers, policymakers, residents, and stakeholders from around the world to collegially discuss the state of Arctic science, the place the Arctic occupies in global affairs and systems, to consider the most urgent knowledge gaps and research priorities that lie before us and to explore avenues to address these research needs. This event is hosted by a consortium of US institutions, including the University of Colorado Boulder, University of Northern Iowa, University of Alaska Fairbanks, and Alaska Pacific University. ICARP I, II, and III focused the attention of the world’s researchers toward the value of strategic international coordination in accelerating progress in addressing critical challenges. ICARP IV will build upon this concept by striving to achieve consensus and build collaborations among the leading scientific, academic, environmental, Indigenous and political organizations currently concerned with Arctic issues.
