SEARCH
Definition
- SEARCH is an interagency effort to understand the nature, extent, and future development of the system-scale change presently seen in the Arctic. These changes are occurring across terrestrial, oceanic, atmospheric and human systems, including: * increased air temperatures over most of the Arctic; * changing ocean circulation and rising coastal sea level; * reduced sea ice cover; and * thawing permafrost. Currently more than 40 projects are funded as SEARCH activities by U.S. agencies and many more projects relevant to SEARCH objectives are supported through other programs. For additional information about SEARCH projects, see http://www.arcus.org/search/searchprojects/?Menu=20 Project Website: http://www.arcus.org/SEARCH/index.php (en)
