Dear Colleague:

We are now developing and testing the on-line searchable database for the
"Directory of United States Arctic Researchers". An experimental version
of the directory database can be accessed at
http://arcus.polarnet.com/US_Arctic_researchers/

The database has some problems right now; we are working on fixing it
and would appreciate your help. Try it out. If you run into problems
using the database, let us know what you were trying to access and the
problems you experienced. Please be patient while we get this important
resource up and
running smoothly.

The directory contains names, addresses, and science specialties/research
interests of individual U.S. Arctic researchers. The on-line edition of the
Directory is updated weekly.

Your feedback will help us to identify and fix other problems that may be
occurring. Let us know what aspects of the directory are not satisfactory.

If you are an arctic researcher, you can be included in the directory by
submitting the form available at
http://arcus.polarnet.com/US_Arctic_researchers/

Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you.
