Dear Subscribers to Witness the Arctic,

With the current issue, ARCUS has changed the format of Witness the
Arctic. To provide more frequent updates and reduce printing and mailing
costs and associated environmental impacts, the newsletter will now be
distributed online in three or four shorter issues per year, depending
on newsworthy events. Subscribers will receive an e-mail when each issue
has been released, with a link to the online content.

The feature article in the current issue is by Mead Treadwell, the chair
of the U.S. Arctic Research Commission, on how the International Polar
Year has heightened awareness of arctic issues beyond the research
community. You may view individual articles or download a PDF file of
this issue at:

new format or article ideas for future issues, contact me at ARCUS
(york [at] arcus.org).

Sincerely,
Alison York
Witness the Arctic Editor
