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 funded through various US agencies.
If you have any questions about the SEARCH Project Catalog, please contact Helen Wiggins.
There are currently 69 projects contained within this database.
To submit your project, enter the information in the form. The SEARCH Science Management Office, in consultation with members of the SEARCH SSC and Panels, will approve submissions and publish them to the public database.

Types of activities include: data rescue; improvement of observation density, co-location, and integration; improvement of coverage to close observation gaps; development of optimal observation and sampling strategies; observations of key processes and studies of feedbacks; acquisition of paleo-data over critical time periods; development of networks; development of data archival and distribution systems; and utilization of innovative and effective technology.
Types of activities include: model-based assimilation of available observations; improvement and expansion of model capabilities; model simulations for forecasting and for guiding observing system design; development and use of proxy records; paleo reconstructions; diagnostic analyses of synthesized observations and paleo reconstructions; and studies of interactions between arctic environmental, socioeconomic and cultural changes.
Types of activities include: stakeholder-driven guidance of observations and identification of useful predictions; interpretation of modeling/analysis results in the context of local knowledge; assessment of the responsiveness and effectiveness of institutions in addressing social and economic concerns about climate change; and development of community-based networks and cooperatives to facilitate the above activities.
