The Arctic Science Summit Week 2002 will be held in Groningen, the
Netherlands. This week combines a number of meetings from several arctic
organisations with scientific updates on several projects. The purpose
of the summit is to provide opportunities for coordination and
collaboration, and to combine science and management.
During the week, circumpolar organisations such as IASC, AOSB, EPB,
FARO, NAD, NySMAC, and the NPG will have their annual meetings. Members
of these organisations will be notified by their secretariats, but are
also asked to register at the ASSW organisation. For the main meeting
schedule and online registration go to the ASSW web site at:

This year's Science Day is Wednesday, 24 April. This year's theme is The
Interactions between the Arctic and the Temperate Zones. Four different
scientific fields are covered: Glaciology, Oceanography, Biology, and
Environmental Studies, thus providing an interdisciplinary overview on
these interactions. The program of Science Day will be posted on the
ASSW web site within a few weeks.
Project Day is on Monday, 22 April. This joint activity will focus on a
large number of arctic projects like FATE, MAGICS, and SEARCH. The
detailed program will be posted on the ASSW web site.
