Organizers with the Study of Environmental Arctic Change (SEARCH)
announce the 2015 Arctic Observing Open Science Meeting, which will
convene 17-19 November 2015 in Seattle, Washington.

The conference is for individuals and teams from academia, agencies,
industry, and other organizations involved in the collection,
processing, analysis, and use of observations in the Arctic. It will be
convened as a combination of plenary talks, parallel science sessions,
and a poster session.

The goals of the meeting are to:

  • Present and discuss scientific findings and advances resulting from
    arctic observing projects funded by U.S. agencies and organizations;
  • Review operational and technological achievements of observing
    programs funded through local, state, and federal agencies and private
    and non-profit organizations;
  • Explore how well new scientific achievements meet science and mission
    objectives; and
  • Further define and strengthen collaborations.

Co-chairs of the meeting are Craig Lee (University of Washington),
Matthew Shupe (Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental
Sciences, University of Colorado and NOAA Earth Systems Research
Laboratory), and Cathy Wilson (Earth and Environmental Sciences
Division, Los Alamos National Laboratory). The full Organizing Committee
is currently being convened.

The U.S. National Science Foundation Arctic Observing Network (NSF AON)
program is providing funding for core meeting activities. Co-sponsorship
is sought for additional activities, including web streaming, poster
session, student/early career researcher travel scholarships, and
development of meeting products.

The two and one-half day meeting will be held at the Hyatt at Olive 8 in
Seattle, Washington. For more information, go to:
