Arctic Observing

Observing the Arctic environment is key to understanding and predicting future Arctic changes, and applies to all of SEARCH’s science goals.

Arctic Observing Working Group

The Arctic Observing Working Group’s charge is to outline mechanisms by which SEARCH can help the U.S. research community prioritize sustained observing across the Arctic.

Past Observing Change Panel

In 2014, SEARCH transitioned away from the previous structure with panels for Observing Change, Understanding Change, and Responding to Change; the work of the former Observing Change Panel (OCP) was transitioned to the current Arctic Observing Working Group.
