Integrated Arctic observation system (INTAROS)
Start date: Dec 1, 2016, End date: Nov 30, 2021,
The overall objective of INTAROS is to develop an integrated Arctic Observation System (iAOS) by extending, improving and unifying existing systems in the different regions of the Arctic. INTAROS will have a strong multidisciplinary focus, with tools for integration of data from atmosphere, ocean, cryosphere and terrestrial sciences, provided by institutions in Europe, North America and Asia. Sate ...

Connecting Science with Society (EU-PolarNet)
Start date: Mar 1, 2015, End date: Feb 29, 2020,
The rapid changes occurring in the Polar Regions are significantly influencing global climate with consequences for global society. European polar research has contributed critical knowledge to identifying the processes behind these rapid changes but, in contrast to lower latitudes, datasets from the Polar Regions are still insufficient to fully understand and more effectively predict the effects ...

Ice, Climate, and Economics - Arctic Research on Change (ICE-ARC)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
The ICE-ARC project aims to understand and quantify the multiple stresses involved in the change in the Arctic marine environment. Particular focus is on the rapid retreat and collapse of the Arctic sea ice cover and to assess the climatic (ice, ocean, atmosphere and ecosystem), economic and social impacts of these stresses on regional and global scales.It is not possible to look at one aspect of ...

New operational steps towards an alliance of European research fleets (EUROFLEETS2)
Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
EUROFLEETS2 is the enhancement of EUROFLEETS1, with the aim of developing a new pan-European distributed infrastructure with common strategic vision and coordinated access to Research Vessels (RVs) and marine equipment. EUROFLEETS2 will furthermore undertake specific actions to consolidate research fleets’ organization, methodology and tools through operational initiatives (like virtual fleets) le ...

International Network for Terrestrial Research and Monitoring in the Arctic (INTERACT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
Environmental change and particularly amplified global climate change are accelerating in the Arctic. These changes already affect local residents and feedback from the Arctic’s land surface to the climate system, will have global implications. However, climate change and its impacts are variable throughout the wide environmental and land use envelopes of the Arctic. Unfortunately, the Arctic is g ...

Climate change, Environmental contaminants and Reproductive health (CLEAR)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
The research project investigates the possible impact of global climate change on reproductive health in one Arctic and two European populations. The key questions to be addressed are, firstly, how may climate change influence human exposure to widespread environmental contaminants and, secondly, how may contaminants impact occurrence of reproductive disorders as sensitive indicators of health? To ...

Arctic Tipping Points (ATP)
Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2012,
The broad interdisciplinary consortia assembled in the Arctic Tipping Points (ATP) project will be managed (WP1) to identify the elements of the Arctic marine ecosystem likely to show abrupt changes in response to climate change, and establish the levels of the corresponding climate drivers inducing the regime shift for these tipping elements. ATP will evaluate the consequences of crossing those t ...
