The Arctic Ungulate Conference is held every four years. The theme of the 2011 conference is "Challenges of Managing Northern Ungulates" and will address the difficulties of managing ungulate populations that are
faced with the unpredictable effects of climate change and an ever-increasing human

The objective of the symposium and field trip is to provide an opportunity for the researchers and engineers working on permafrost studies in mountain and arid land regions to discuss and exchange their achievements and experiences.

The Symposium and field trip will be organized under the

The Norwegian Scientific Academy for Polar Research, in cooperation with the Nansen Environmental and Remote Sensing Center, Nansen Scientific Society, and the University Center in Svalbard (UNIS), invites
applications to a summer school program entitled "Impact of climate change on resources

Over the past three decades, China has experienced a dramatic change in economical development which has resulted in accelerating rates of landscape change and the inevitable conflicts between man and environment. China now faces the challenge of developing landscape practices that will provide a

The PNWER Arctic Caucus was formed in November 2009 as an informal group of legislators, government officials, business and non-profit leaders committed to the responsible development of North America’s Arctic. The purpose of the Arctic Caucus is to provide a forum within PNWER for the arctic

The main topic of the meeting is "Methods for measure, collect and assimilate hydrological information in cold climate". The program is divided into seven sessions covering different other topics related to cold climate hydrology as solid precipitation, cold climate hydrology effects on ecosystems

The summer school is a two week graduate level course designed to give students a higher level of understanding of the Arctic climate system. The course is structured in two parts, the first is a week lectures presented by invited speakers on the relevant principals, theories and dynamics of what

Abstract submission deadline: 30 November 2010

We solicit papers and discussions reflecting our current understanding of the importance of permafrost and thermokarst for past, present and future high-latitude lowland environments and their impacts on global climate dynamics in the Quaternary. In

Glaciers respond sensitively to climate change. Recent (Holocene) glacier fluctuations are a valuable proxy for terrestrial interglacial paleoclimate conditions. A main challenge for interpreting paleoclimate from past mountain glacier extents is distinguishing local and regional patterns from

The UKPN, in partnership with the National Center for Earth Observation, the Earth Observation technology cluster, and ESA, are proud to present a 3 day summer school aimed at early doctoral students working in Polar or cryospheric remote sensing.

Modern remote sensing techniques have improved our
