Work Package 2, the Station Managers’ Forum, has submitted a deliverable report entitled Updated INTERACT Minumum Monitoring Programme. It is available for download below.
Decision-makers require robust assessments to address climateThe average weather we would expect over a long period of time (seasons, years, decades). Climate varies from place-to-place across the Earth. Climate is determined by long-term (over at least...

An ecosystem is made up of plants, animals, microorganisms, soil,... More changes, with both remote and ground observations being vital for accuracy. This analysis evaluated how well the INTERACT stations represent the ArcticDefinitions of the Arctic vary according to environmental, geographical, political, cultural and scientific perspectives. Some scientists define the Arctic as areas having a high latitude, long winters, short, cool summers,...

Results indicate a bias in station coverage, which is exacerbated by the removal of Russian stations, potentially exceeding expected climate changeAccording to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, climate change is change in the climate of the whole Earth or a region of the Earth that is believed... More impacts by 2100. The findings, published in a top scientific journal, aim to improve observational capacities and support decision-making in climateThe average weather we would expect over a long period of time (seasons, years, decades).
