From the CO’s Desk
I attended the SCAR Executive meeting that was held in
Sofia, Bulgaria, from 11th to 14th of July 2005, along
with the Chief Officers of the other Standing Scientific Groups. Attendance of
the three SSG Chief Officers at these meetings was noted to be very important
in order to discuss scientific approaches on SCAR activities thoroughly and to
allow better planning of science initiatives within SCAR. The participation of
SSG Chief Officers was confirmed for the next SCAR Executive and SCAR General
Assembly. During the course of the Sophia meeting the three SSG Chief Officers
met and discussed among other questions, the next SCAR Open Science Conference,
to be held in Hobart, Australia, in 2006. The CO’s further discussed plans for
a cross-disciplinary meeting of all SSGs on, with a Global Change theme, to be
held over November 22-24, 2006, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Several
researchers have been invited to plan future interdisciplinary activities under
the SCAR umbrella for this first joint meeting of the SSG’s.
The joint CO meeting was very profitable and we all
agreed that similar meetings should be planned at future SCAR Executive
meetings, and the SCAR Open Science Conference or SCAR Delegates Assembly.
Reports of both the SCAR Executive meeting and our CO
meeting, are available on the SCAR web site www.scar.org.
Due to the large number of congresses, meetings and
workshops organized by all of the different research groups within GSSG, it was
decided to plan full meetings of the GSSG every two years associated with the
SCAR Open Science Conference.
I invite convener’s of each AG, EG and
Scientific Programme, as well as participating researchers to send Glenn
Johnstone (CO AG leader) and me information about initiatives and planned or
completed meetings or. We will continue to publish GeoReach in the future, even
if it was decided by the SCAR Executive that electronic bulletins or web site
news of all SCAR SSG’s and SP’s will be edited.
Prof. Alessandro Capra Census of Marine
Antarctic Life Geoscience in the Census of
Antarctic Marine Life The
Census of Antarctic Marine Life is an IPY project developed within the
biological community that has a significant role for marine geosciences and
corresponding opportunities for survey logistics. Phil O’Brien attended the
first CAML Science Steering Committee meeting in Brussels in May to present the
geological work needed to underpin some of the CAML objectives. CAML is
primarily focussed on understanding biodiversity. However, a major focus will
be on the benthic biota of the slope, rise and abyssal plains. There is clear
recognition that understanding benthic communities requires an understanding of
sea bed geomorphology, sediment transport and Holocene history of a region.
Therefore, benthic sampling surveys being planned under the CAML umbrella need
geological input in sample site selection, and coring and sedimentology as part
of their science program. The
other CAML program where geology has a role is in the study of benthos beneath
ice shelves. Geosciences can help understand the length of time sub-ice shelf
environments have existed and the behaviour of individual ice shelves during
the Quaternary. The
CAML science statement can be viewed at the web site which is: http://www.caml.aq/. An appendix setting out the
role of geoscience in CAML is in preparation by Phil O’Brien. It is expected
that a number of nations will be carrying out benthic sampling programs that
will need input on seabed geomorphology, sedimentology and biogeochemistry. CAML
is sponsored by SCAR and the Sloan Foundation. Prof Michael Stoddart of
Australian Antarctic Division is the Project Leader and Project Coordinator is
Dr Victoria Wadley. A number of
national Antarctic programs have offered ships for surveys in 2007/8. For more
information, watch the CAML web site, contact Phil O’Brien (phil.obrien@ga.gov.au) or Dr Victoria
Wadley (Victoria.Wadley@aad.gov.au). SCAR News
Global
Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) authorised by G8 meeting in Scotland
(July 8, 2005) G8 leaders meeting at the G8 summit in
Gleneagles, Scotland, July 8, 2005, authorized a plan to implement the Global
Earth Observation System of Systems (www.epa.gov/geoss/) to thwart pollution and global warming, as part of the G8's
"Plan of Action: Climate Change, Clean Energy and Sustainable
Development". In particular, the G8 will work to strengthen existing
climate observing systems in Africa, through the Global Climate Observing
System (GCOS), initially to developing fully operational regional climate
centres in Africa. But the GEOSS is not just about Africa, it is a global
initiative involving the world´s space agencies, the UN agencies like WMO,
UNEP, FAO, and UNESCO and its Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission, and
the main research organisations including ICSU, the IGBP, and the World Climate
Research Programme (WCRP). GEOSS will include space-based and in situ observations on the ocean, ice
and atmosphere from the Southern Ocean and from Antarctica. SCAR has an opportunity to make a
significant contribution to the development of the south polar elements of the
GEOSS. Changes in SCAR SCAR online
newsletter Issue 1, Number 1, January 2005 is available from the following
address: www.scar.org/news/newsletter/issue1/jan05.html Professor
Zhanhai Zhang appointed as SCAR Vice President Following the resignation of Prof
Shimamura, the SCAR Executive Committee at its meeting in Sofia (11-13 July 2005), decided that
Professor Zhanhai Zhang should become a SCAR Vice President, starting with
immediate effect. Prof Zhang’s contact details are as
follows: Director General Tel: +86 21 6850 7533 New Executive
Officer On June 18th, after many years of service to SCAR, Peter Clarkson took
his well-deserved retirement. Peter has done a great job for SCAR, but is now headed for a new life.
He tells us that he doesn’t intend to stop working. He has lots of ideas for
writing on polar matters, and will carry on lecturing on tourist ships to
Antarctica and providing assistance on Antarctic matters when called for. Peter is the official SCAR Memory Bank. Although he has passed on much
of his extensive knowledge to his successors, we shall miss his wise advice,
and indeed his warm companionship. But he will still be in Cambridge, and has
told us we can call on him from time to time when we need a hand in the office
(or to dredge the Memory Bank for some particular information). He will work
for SCAR on contract in July, to train Marzena
Kaczmarska, the new SCAR Executive Officer. In future please send your SCAR business requests or information to
Marzena Kaczmarska (mik24@cam.ac.uk). You will still be able to contact Peter
for a while on his e-mail (pdc3@cam.ac.uk), for personal correspondence. Communications Plan The SCAR Communications Plan has been approved by the SCAR Executive
Committee at the recent meeting in Sofia, Bulgaria. Details and a copy of the
plan can be found at www.scar.org/communications/ The overall objectives of the plan are to: ·
raise the visibility of SCAR and its activities; ·
promote the concepts that inspire SCAR’s agenda; ·
raise awareness of the importance of scientific
research in the Antarctic region; ·
ensure successful implementation of SCAR’s research
programmes and activities; ·
develop cooperation with partners and supporters; ·
mobilise human and financial resources; ·
link Secretariat staff more effectively with the
SCAR Executive Committee, National Committees, scientific activities and
programmes, and partners; ·
link SCAR more effectively with other Antarctic
organisations; and ·
help to build the capacity of new Members to enable
them to participate in and benefit from SCAR activities and programmes. GIG News Tracking the
B-15 berg There
has been a website set up by MODIS imagery folks at NASA Goddard to chart the
daily progress of the B-15 iceberg. rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/?RossSea/ The
page contains a number of image subsets that are automatically generated in
near-real-time and as true-color images for various applications users. ADD and Web Mapping Paul Cooper, at BAS, has released an experimental web map browser
for the Antarctic Digital Database (ADD), which can be accessed at www.add.scar.org/WMSbrowser This is currently an experimental page, based on a Web Feature
Service and Web Map Service. Expect it to change in content, appearance and
functionality over the next few months. It has been tested with Internet Explorer 6, Mozilla Firefox and
Opera, and should work correctly with most modern Javascript-enabled browsers. The underlying services are not yet ready for public release, but
if any one wishes to use them on an experimental basis, please contact Paul
Cooper at paul.cooper@bas.ac.uk. Cyberatlas
& GI meeting, Ottawa A
meeting of the Cybercartographic Atlas project and a more informal meeting of
the Geographic Information Group was held in Ottawa from 18-20 September. A
small number of participants, representing 5 SCAR member countries, met to
discuss the progress on Geographic Information projects. A number of
international tele-conference hook-ups with other members ensured that the
majority of Project Leaders were involved in discussions. Information
on recent ISO TC-211 activities was provided by Paul Cooper, from BAS, as well
as reports on the Cybercartographic Atlas, the US Atlas of Antarctic Research,
the King George Island GIS, the Antarctic Digital Database (see above article),
the SCAR Feature Catalogue and AAD activities.
The second day of the meeting examined such issues as the possible
expansion of the boundaries to the ADD, the future of the Composite Gazetteer
of Antarctic and the future of Web Services for Antarctic Geographic
Information. A
full report on the meeting will be available from www.carleton.ca/gcrc/caap/meetings.htm Permafrost and
Periglacial Environments The
Expert Group on Antarctic Permafrost and Soils (ANTPAS) held a workshop from 12
to 16 June 2005, in Potsdam, Germany At the workshop agreement was reached to develop a set of
protocols to allow spatial extension of data collection throughout the
Antarctic region, also by non-specialists. We are close to the agreed deadline
for circulation of draft versions but it is clear that we will not meet these.
Lead authors have been asked to circulate the draft documents via the ANTPAS
mail list, as soon as they are ready, to give a chance for community-wide input
and comment. A number of new contacts have emerged especially from researchers
in Argentina and Spain working in Tierra del Fuego and James Ross Island. The
ANTPAS Chief Officer is trying to get a better understanding of these
activities and how to integrate them best into ANTPAS. Contacts are developing
with Norwegian scientists to extend monitoring work in Dronning Maud Land. SEDIFLUX has approached ANTPAS for collaboration to establish
small catchments for sediment budget studies in the Antarctic region. This will
integrate well with the periglacial process monitoring and CALM. More info on
SEDIFLUX at: http://www.ngu.no/sediflux. A reminder! Please submit your research project information to
Megan Balks for posting on the website. [erth.waikato.ac.nz/antpas/] This greatly helps both with communication within the group to
achieve our goals and in preparation for IPY activities. It should not take
more than 20 minutes of your time when you actually do it. [Thanks to Professor Jan Boelhouwers for this information] ACE News Programme Details The ACE implementation plan has been accepted by the
SCAR executive committee, pending a minor additional section on how ACE work
can be linked to the Joint Committee on Antarctic Data Management. Details of
the implementation plan can be found on the ACE website (www.ace.scar.org). The ACE science
programme will be led by a series of subcommittees, the names and chairs of
which are as follows: ·
LGM-Holocene Chair: Tony Payne (UK) ·
Pleistocene Chair: Tim Naish (NZ) ·
Middle Miocene-Pliocene Chair: Alan Haywood (UK) · Oligocene-Miocene Chair: Rob DeConto (USA) ·
Eocene/Oligocene Chair: Jane Francis (UK) ·
Radio-Echo Sounding: Chair: Detlef Damaske (Germany) International
Polar Year The
ACE programme has been conditionally endorsed by the ICSU/WMO Joint Committee
for the International Polar Year (2007-9). In the endorsement letter, the joint
committee states that “… these endorsements provide assistance and support
as IPY researchers seek funding for the work proposed.” ACE’s progress in this
matter will be reviewed at the start of 2006. Publications Sixteen papers given at the Antarctic paleoclimate
sessions of two meetings in mid-2004 (the Open Science meeting of the Scientific
Committee on Antarctic Research, Bremen, July 24-28, 2004, and Session T.29 of
the International Geological Congress, Florence, August 20-28, 2004), are due
to be published in a single special volume of Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology,
Palaeoecology,
entitled “Antarctic Climate Evolution - view from the margin”, edited by Peter
Barrett, Fabio Florindo and Alan Cooper. The volume is now in press, and should
appear in a few months. Meetings Alan
Haywood chaired a session at the Earth System Processes 2 (8–11 August 2005),
in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, titled “The Last Great Global Warming: Proxy
Reconstructions and Modeling the Pliocene Climate”. Several ACE related papers
were given at the meeting, including a paper by Dan Hill on ‘Modelling the East
Antarctic cryosphere during the Pliocene’. In August, an ACE-sponsored meeting took place at the
University of Wales, Aberystwyth on Glacial Sedimentary Processes and Products
(organised by Mike Hambrey). Several ACE papers were presented, including a
double paper by David Pollard on numerical modelling of the Antarctic ice sheet
and the subglacial sediment erosion, transportation and deposition. It is hoped
that a follow up meeting will take place in Alaska during 2009, with others to
follow of a four yearly basis. Professor Martin Siegert ANTEC news Terry
Wilson reports: The
principal focus of ANTEC activities in 2005 has been on development of the IPY
initiative called “POLENET: Polar Earth
Observing Network” and linked proposals for geodetic and seismic
observatories. The aim of this
programme is to investigate systems-scale interactions within the polar earth
system and polar geodynamics by deploying autonomous remote observatories, on
the continents and possibly offshore. The principal components of these
observatories will consist of continuous GPS and seismometers, with the
potential addition of meteorology packages, geomagnetic observatories, tide
gauges (at coastal sites), and bottom pressure gauges (at offshore sites).
Well-established international collaboration through SCAR is being expanded to
set up a consortium of researchers who together will deploy a polar network of
solid-earth observatories across the Antarctic and sectors of the Arctic.
Discussions to date have involved 18 nations, and outreach to additional
nations is underway. An Expression of Intent was submitted to the IPY
International office in January, and we received preliminary recognition as an
IPY activity from the ICSU/WMO Joint Committee. A full proposal will be submitted for the September 2005
deadline. A
planning/coordination meeting for POLENET was held at the EGU meeting in
Vienna, Austria, in April 2005. Scientific presentations on Antarctic geodesy and
a business meeting centred on planning for POLENET took place at the joint
IAG-IAPSO-IABO meeting Dynamic Planet
2005 in Cairns, Australia, in August 2005.
Scientific
presentations on Antarctic seismology and discussion of the seismological
deployment for POLENET will take place at the IASPEI meeting in Santiago,
Chile, in early October 2005.
Additional scientific sessions and planning meetings are scheduled for
the American Geophysical Union meeting in December 2005 (San Francisco) and for
the European Geosciences Union meeting in April 2006 (Vienna). Interested scientists should contact Terry
Wilson (wilson.43@osu.edu) or Reinhard
Dietrich (dietrich@ipg.geo.tu-dresden.de)
for further information. OTHER NEWS IPY There has been an
increasing amount of activity in relation to IPY – with many groups developing
and submitting various research proposals. www.scar.org/events/internationalpolaryear/
- has information relevant to some of the SCAR activities. www.ipy.org/ - has links to all the Expressions
of Interest and full research proposals received so far. WAIS and IPY This message describes the strategy that the WAIS Working Group
has adopted to formulate a strong response to US-NSF’s IPY solicitation
expected this summer/fall. We regard a set of linked proposals to be the most favourable
means to garner significant support for new research in the Amundsen Sea
Embayment (ASE) area, consistent with the previously published ASE Science and
Implementation Plan. You can find this
plan on the WAIS web site or go directly to igloo.gsfc.nasa.gov/wais/links/ASEP-final.pdf. The linked proposals will focus on the following areas: ·
Oceanography and Floating Ice Dynamics: ·
Ice Dynamics Modeling: ·
Ice Sheet Dynamics ·
Terrestrial Geology: ·
Ice Coring and Paleoclimate: The corresponding timetable for developing these proposals is: ·
July 1: announce the process, contacts, and
schedule in e-mail distributed to WAIS mailing list ·
August 31: complete proposal outlines made
available on the WAIS web site for comments (the outline will include a brief
description of the work to be done, who would do it and about how much it would
cost) ·
September 30: revised proposal outlines are
presented at WAIS workshop ·
November: final proposals are submitted to NSF (and
elsewhere for international collaborators) We also have tentatively identified lead and supporting persons to
handle the proposals in each area. In
some cases their acceptance of these roles was qualified (or inferred by their
failure to turn me down), but we need to have some front people start things
off. These heroes are: ·
Oceanography and Floating Ice Dynamics: David
Holland with support from Stan Jacobs and Adrian Jenkins ·
Ice Dynamics Modeling: Jesse Johnson with support
from Christina Hulbe and Tony Payne ·
Ice Sheet Dynamics: Sridhar Anandakrishnan with
support from Ian Joughin ·
Terrestrial Geology: John Stone with support from
Brenda Hall ·
Ice Coring and Paleoclimate: Ken Taylor with
support from Eric Steig If you are interested in being included in any of these proposals,
it is important that you contact the appropriate people named above to express
your interest. The next two months will
be a critical phase. These proposals
will take some time to pull together and will probably not be easily modified
in the 11th hour. Nor will they be your
regular NSF proposal in the sense that they will be required to conform to the
higher standards of IPY, which to me means they must include or be tightly
linked to international activities, include substantial educational and
outreach components and, most importantly, strive to achieve a level of
research accomplishment beyond business-as-usual. I expect NSF will include some form of these criteria in their
solicitation announcement. [Thanks to Bob Binschandler for supplying this information.] SCAR - COMNAP Joint Executive meeting This annual meeting was held in Sofia (Bulgaria) from
11-14 July 2005 – reports and photos from the SCAR Executive meeting are
available from: www.scar.org/members/execmeetingreports/sofia05/ International Conference on Geomorphology The International Conference on Geomorphology (7-11 September
2005, Zaragoza, Spain) was attended by about 850 scientists. It included a
Special Session on Antarctic Geomorphology in which 13 works were presented,
including authors from 9 different countries. An special issue of the
international journal Polish Polar Research will be published on 2006
containing articles proceeding from the mentioned Session. US-ITASE The US component of the International Trans Antarctic Scientific
Expedition expects to go into the field during the 2006 - 2007 Antarctic field
season. In preparation, the US ITASE
Science Management Office held a short meeting just prior to the recent WAIS
meeting. The plan is to discuss the
forthcoming traverses, agree on routes, logistics, and science. The meeting is open to anyone interested,
and was held at the Arlington Room of the Algonkian Regional Park Meeting
Center, on Wednesday September 28.

Geohazard and Global Climate Change Session C 04: Permafrost and Seasonally Frozen Ground in a Changing
Climate Session C 09: "The Dynamics of Glacier System Response: Tidewater
Glaciers and the Ice Streams and Outlet Glaciers of Greenland and
Antarctica" Session C 12: "Sea Ice Feedbacks and Climate Change" Session C 11:"Antarctic Ice Shelves: Climatic, Oceanographic, and
Biologic Interactions" Abstract Submissions Open: Tuesday, 26 July 2005 Abstract Submission Deadline: Thursday, 8 September 2005 For further information on the AGU 2005
Fall Meeting, please go to: www.agu.org/meetings/fm05/ We would like to draw your attention to: Special Session at the
Fall AGU Meeting 2005 Antarctic Ice Shelves:
Climatic, Oceanographic, and Biologic Interactions This
session aims to cover a variety of glaciological topics related to ice shelves
(see description below), and also welcomes contributions on the recent
sub-Larsen Ice Shelf discovery. AGU
abstract submission opens on July 26th and closes on September 8th, so please
start thinking about abstracts now. We look forward to your submission. Most
of the ice mass lost from the Antarctic continent occurs in ice shelf
processes, through basal melting, surface melting and iceberg calving. Since
they are in contact with both the ocean and the atmosphere, ice shelves are
more responsive to climate change than the rest of the ice sheet. They play a
supporting role for outlet glaciers as well, i.e. they influence the speed at
which these glaciers flow, and reductions in their extent or mass can lead to
an increased flux of ice from the continent. Recently, chemotrophic biologic
communities have been discovered on the seabed beneath former ice shelves - an
astounding development with many implications for extraterrestrial and sub
glacial lake habitats. This
session aims to bring together glaciologists, oceanographers, marine
geologists, and biogeochemists to discuss the following topics: ice shelf/ice
stream interactions; flow history; sub ice shelf oceanography; tides in shelf
areas; ice shelf mass balance; ice shelf rifting, calving, retreat, and iceberg
evolution; and a new ecosystem adapted to the cold and dark. Conveners:
Helen Amanda Fricker, Ted Scambos and Eugene Domack. AGU
Ocean Sciences Meeting in Feb. 2006 OS082:
The Southern Ocean and Its Margins: Sediment Archives and Dynamics of
Environmental Change and Variability Please go to the following
site for further information: The
greater Southern Ocean with its polar basins and continental margins account
for globally-significant fractions of oceanic deep water formation, annual sea
ice formation, and marine primary production. In order to predict how this
complex region will respond to and influence future climatic changes, it is
important to understand the nature and timing of past environmental changes, as
well as the dynamics that underlay these changes. The past decade has seen a
significant body of research focused on extracting paleoenvironmental records
from marine sediments in the greater Southern Ocean. These records are obtained
in locations ranging from fjords to the continental slope to the open ocean,
and span timescales ranging from years to tens of thousands of years. In
addition, a lot of progress has been made in our understanding of the Southern
Ocean circulation, its variability, and response to external factors. This
session will highlight the results of these studies, as it invites theoretical,
numerical, observational and paleoceanographic studies that address change and
variability of the greater Southern Ocean and its continental margins. A focus
will be on establishing a circum-Antarctic record of environmental conditions
over the past 20 thousand years, and identifying the factors that may have led
to, or influenced these conditions. Kind
