The SIOS online conference is a biennial event providing a forum for those engaged in Earth System Science in Svalbard to network and share their latest results.

SIOS Knowledge Centre and the SIOS Remote Sensing Working Group invite abstract submissions from anyone involved in Earth System Science research in Svalbard including remote sensing, fieldwork and modeling. Abstract submission closes: Extended Mon 30th September 2024.

This is one of the first international conferences dedicated to a holistic view of Arctic emergency management. The conference will provide a platform for discussions, information exchange and advancing work on emergency management in the Arctic. It will highlight the importance and interconnectedness of different aspects of emergency prevention, preparedness and response in the Arctic.

The 15th Symposium on Polar Science hosted by the National Institute of Polar Research (NIPR), Tokyo, Japan, will be held from 3 to 5 December 2024. The NIPR is organizing this annual symposium to present and promote a wide variety of polar scientific research and interdisciplinary studies. We look forward to your active participation. The symposium will include both oral and poster sessions. Oral sessions will be conducted in a hybrid format, allowing in-person and online participation. Poster sessions will be held exclusively on-site at the symposium venue.

The international  initiatives CATCH, PACES, BEPSII, ASPeCt and QUiesCENT will hold a joint workshop bringing together scientists and stakeholders with an interest in atmosphere-ice-ocean research focussing on chemical, biogeochemical and physical processes in the Arctic and Antarctic and links to climate change. Cold regions which are seasonally or permanently covered by snow and ice, notably the Third Pole, are also of interest.

Every autumn since 2010, the International Polar Foundation and its partners have organised a multinational, multidisciplinary and multi-stakeholder conference on the Arctic.

Held in Brussels and free of charge to make discussions on Arctic issues accessible to as many Arctic stakeholders as possible, the annual Arctic Futures Symposium brings together local and national policymakers, Arctic indigenous peoples, natural and social scientists, academics, and representatives of industries operating in or with interests in the Arctic.

Applications are open for the IASC Fellowship Program 2025. The IASC Fellowship Program is meant to engage early career researchers in the work of the IASC Working Groups, and a total of 9 Fellowships will be offered for 2025:

Il programma di Ricerca in Artico si basa su una programmazione strategica ed economica triennale, con l’elaborazione di un Programma triennale (PRA) e di Programmi Annuali (PA). L’elaborazione di PRA e PA è demandata al Comitato Scientifico per l’Artico, appositamente istituito, mentre alla loro attuazione provvede il CNR. La norma istitutiva del PRA ha previsto un primo stanziamento triennale di un milione di Euro l’anno.

Nei giorni 21, 22 e 23 ottobre 2024, il CNR ospiterà il NySMAC (Ny-Ålesund Science Managers Committee), il comitato responsabile della gestione delle basi di ricerca a Ny-Ålesund (Isole Svalbard - Artico). Oltre ai responsabili della Base Artica del CNR e della Kings Bay, che si occupa delle esigenze logistiche del villaggio di Ny-Ålesund, parteciperanno anche rappresentanti di diverse istituzioni di ricerca provenienti da Norvegia, Germania, India, Svezia, Corea, Cina e Giappone.

This a continuation of a popular series of SIOS workshops on marine infrastructure that began in 2020, and it offers the opportunity to connect with scientists working in the marine realm of Svalbard and learn more about Svalbard’s marine infrastructure. This workshop will present marine infrastructures and time series around Svalbard and will include an update on the Atlantic-Arctic Distributed Biological Observatory (A-DBO) as well as a presentation on the European Marine Biological Resource Centre. 

The EU funded project POLARIN invites the scientific community to submit proposals to access 49 Research Infrastructures (RIs) in both polar regions contributing to addressing the key research priorities.

Apply for accessing polar research infrastructures until the 28th of November 2024, 4 pm CET
