The Arctic Data Explorer Needs Your Help

The Arctic Data Explorer (ADE) is looking for your opinions and expertise. The ADE is an interdisciplinary data search tool that lets you find data across many data centers at once. It was created by the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) and the Advanced Cooperative Arctic Data and Information Service (ACADIS). We are looking for volunteers for a one hour, online interview to look through a series of webpages. No experience necessary - just bring your opinions, hopes, and dreams (for data search that is). APECS members are especially sought after because of your dedication, experience, and Arctic knowledge. We would like to thank you for your volunteer service by providing a $20 gift certificate to Amazon.com. Your feedback will be used to make immediate and longer-term changes to the ADE. Please contact us via email at toni.rosati@nsidc.org.  Thank you!
