The Office of Polar Programs, Interagency Arctic Research Policy Committee (IARPC), Alaska Ocean Observing System (AOOS), and other federal agencies have compile a list of planned research expeditions in Alaska and Arctic waters during the 2022 research season. The list is now available on the IARPC Collaborations website. 

Additionally, IARPC will be posting when each expedition begins on Facebook and Twitter. Follow them on these platforms to be regularly reminded when expeditions are heading into the field. You can also sign up for the IARPC newsletter to be alerted if changes are made to expedition plans.

To continue the collaboration of work in the Arctic, the IARPC Collaborations Field Operations Working Group will be holding a meeting on 27 June 2022 at 2pm ET / 10am AKT. At this meeting, researchers will share information about their upcoming expeditions that is relevant to other researchers and to coastal communities, including timing and location, research goals, available berth space, and how data will be used. This meeting is open to all and will be recorded.
