Hi Cryolist,
Please join the Interagency Arctic Research Policy Committee (IARPC) Glaciers and Sea Level Collaboration Team for an online meeting this Thursday (August 13), to discuss the most pressing scientific problems and critical knowledge gaps that hinder actionable understanding of Arctic land ice. This conversation will take place within the context of the developing 2022-2026 Arctic Research Plan, a U.S. federal document ordered by law that IARPC updates every five years.

IARPC collaboration teams improve information flow between the Arctic research community and U.S. federal agencies. Think of them as ongoing, short science workshops. For example, scientists present their research to peers and program managers can both learn about new efforts within their fields and each other's programs, and also identify further synergies between programs and programmatic gaps. While we focus primarily on U.S. efforts in the Arctic, we also seek to learn about and share knowledge and best practices from related regions and fields, and scientists and stakeholders from across the globe are welcome and encouraged to participate.
We look forward to your participation!
