The 33rd Annual International Arctic Workshop will be held April 2-4,
2003 at the Polar Environmental Centre, Tromsø Norway, jointly hosted by
the Norwegian Polar Institute and the University of Tromsoe, Dept. of
Geology. This workshop has grown out of a series of informal annual
meetings sponsored by INSTAAR, University of Colorado, Boulder, USA and
other academic institutions worldwide. In keeping with this tradition,
there are no formalized topics, and the workshop is organized around
themes developed from the abstracts submitted for presentation and
poster display. We hope to build upon the increasing breadth and success
of past years for a rewarding interdisciplinary meeting on a variety of
Arctic research themes.

The meeting is open to all interested in the Arctic and will consist of
a series of talks and poster sessions covering all aspects of
high-latitude environments, past and present. Previous Arctic Workshops
have included presentations on arctic and Antarctic climate, archeology,
environmental geochemistry, geomorphology, hydrology, glaciology, soils,
ecology, oceanography, and Quaternary history.
