Community input is welcomed in the second phase of the Arctic Observing
Assessment for the Interagency Arctic Research Policy Committee (IARPC)
and the Sustaining Arctic Observing Networks (SAON).
The community is invited to suggest additions or revisions to the first
draft effort to identify societal priorities in the Arctic. The first
draft reflects the wide-ranging responses received in recent weeks
during the first phase of public input. It is an effort to group those
responses into categories that would serve as the basis for the next
steps of the Arctic Observing Assessment. Eleven categories have been
identified and made public in an online survey. The community is invited
to review these categories and their descriptions and provide feedback
about missing categories or provide edits to category descriptions.
The categories identified by this process will be mapped into an open
access relational database that includes products, information sources,
and tools identified as necessary for informing decisions. The build out
of the database will be featured on the ArcticHub
(http://www.arctichub.net) and will allow for the community to crowd
source information and products into the database. Frequently Asked
Questions about the Assessment, including more information about IARPC
and SAON, are also available on the Hub.
Submission deadline: Friday, 8 August 2014.
