Pan-Arctic Projects

This online project catalog has been developed to provide a tool to the arctic research community for discovering and sharing information about SEARCH-related projects supported through various funding agencies.

There are currently 126 projects contained within this database. The Project Catalog is under continual development and improvement as additional projects and user functionality is added. If you have any questions or suggestions about the SEARCH Project Catalog, please contact Helen Wiggins.

Below is an overview of all projects currently published in the catalog. The tabs above may be used to 'Filter' by keyword, region, or implementation category, or to run a full text 'Search' against all fields contained in the catalog. Full project details may be viewed by clicking on a project title in the table below.
