The Workshop on the Dynamics and Mass Budget of Arctic Glaciers & the IASC Network on Arctic Glaciology Annual Meeting will host a cross-cutting activity of the Marine and Cryosphere working groups of IASC: “The importance of Arctic glaciers for the Arctic marine ecosystem”.

The purpose of the meeting is:

  • Present and discuss new results on observations and modeling of the dynamics and mass budget of Arctic glaciers, including the Greenland ice sheet.
  • Provide a forum for glaciologists to present and discuss their work and to stimulate future collaborations.
  • Plan and coordinate field work with the aim of using available infrastructure and logistics in the most efficient way.

Participation:
Participation is open to everyone interested in Arctic glaciology and proglacial marine ecosystems. The cross-cutting activity aims at bringing together people from glaciology, marine ecology and oceanography.
