The International
Polar Year is a large scientific programme focused on the Arctic and
Antarctic from March 2007 to March 2009. It is the fourth polar year,
following those in 1882-3, 1932-3, and 1957-8 and scientists from a wide
range of research topics participate.
Also in Svalbard, many research activities in
connection with IPY-projects take place. SSF has compiled an overview over
active IPY-projects in Svalbard.
Note: the lists
are
under continuous revision due to new funding decisions etc.
If you know about an IPY project that is active in Svalbard or Svalbard waters
and is not listed here, please let us know:
