Dear Colleague:

The NEW, IMPROVED on-line searchable database for the "Directory of United
States Arctic Researchers" is now avaiable at
http://arcus.polarnet.com/US_Arctic_researchers/.

The directory contains names, addresses, and science specialties/research
interests of U.S. Arctic researchers. The on-line edition of the Directory
will be updated weekly and as need arises.

If you are an arctic researcher and you are not now in the directory, you
can be included by submitting the form available at the address above. If
you are one of the 1145 individuals already listed in the Directory, please
check your contact information and e-mail any changes and(or) updates to
Betty Galbraith at ffbjg [at] aurora.alaska.edu.

Do not hesitate to let us know what aspects of the database we can improve.
Your feedback will help us to identify and fix any problems that may be
occurring.

Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you.

Wendy K. Warnick, Executive Officer
