Arctic Ship Coordination during IPY (ASCI) is an initiative to
facilitate optimal use of ships and other platforms such as ice-stations
and aircraft to meet the scientific goals of Arctic Ocean studies during
IPY. For more information, please see the ASCI website:
http://www.asci-ipy.de
The purpose of this website is to:
- provide a forum to inform others about arctic IPY cruises and the
state of planning;
- provide information about possibilities for groups or individuals to
join in planned activities;
- present a website that provides detailed information on funded and
planned cruises; and
- inform about meetings for coordination.
More information and the application form to submit planned programmes
are available online at http://www.asci-ipy.de. Please submit
information on planned IPY cruise activities even if the funding status
is pending.
