AINA and ARCUS jointly sponsor receptions at major Arctic meetings,
including at AGU, to provide a place where hundreds of people with
Arctic interests can find each other amidst the thousands. For the third
year ARCUS and AINA are joined in this effort at the Fall meeting by the
Snow, Ice and Permafrost Technical Committee of AGU. Our theme continues
to be "Come see old friends and meet some new ones."
