ACCAP Sea Ice Manual: A Review of Sea-Ice & Related Climate Information Resources for Alaska’s Arctic Coastal Communities
This manual’s purpose is to improve the availability of current information about sea ice from operational and academic observation programs to key user groups.
The goal is to provide Arctic Alaska coastal community leaders and local user groups with an up-to-date, comprehensive, and practical guide to sea-ice and climate information
resources that are relevant to their planning, subsistence activities, and way of life. This information is current as of July 2010. We anticipate the information will evolve over
time and will do our best to keep the manual updated.
If you notice an outdated section or would like to suggest a resource to include in the next update, please e-mail or call us (907-474-7812).
