Call for information on Arctic Russia projects to be presented at ISIRA meeting in Helsinki

Dear UKPN

 

As part of the International Science Initiative in the Russian Arctic (ISIRA), Dr Gareth Rees and I are compiling a list of all current research projects undertaken by UK researchers and institutions in Arctic Russia, as well as those involving Russian researchers.

This is a call for information on any such research projects – please do let us know if you are working on research in Arctic Russia or with Russian colleagues (either research council funded projects or especially those projects that are scholarship based). The compiled list will be presented at the ISIRA meeting in Helsinki in April, which will take place alongside the Arctic Science Summit Week. This is a great opportunity to have your research project drawn to the attention of the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC).

We are working on a tight schedule to produce this list, so I would be grateful if you could email me (amat2@cam.ac.uk) by 14 March 2014 with information on:

  1. Project title
  2. Contact
  3. Institution – Lead
  4. Institution – Other
  5. Country – Lead
  6. Country – Other
  7. Project leader
  8. Other participants
  9. Project period
  10. Investigated area
  11. Project description
 

I look forward to hearing about many exciting projects!

 

Best wishes,

Anna Maria
