AOS 2018 - SHORT STATEMENTS FOR PUBLIC REVIEW
In preparation for the Arctic Observing Summit 2018, community input was invited in the form of short statements (below) and poster presentations. The following articles have been submitted for public review and discussion for the AOS 2018. Thematic Working Groups have been preparing synthesis documents (to be posted) to report on the state of Arctic observing under each theme, and to identify linkages among themes, remaining gaps, needs and priorities, and to generate discussion around solutions, implementation, community engagement, and international cooperation.
Papers are listed below: The numbers under 'THEME, WG' refer to the AOS themes and Working Groups.
These papers can now be downloaded, but a revised, final version will be posted as it becomes available.
