Projects

SEARCH
DAMOCLES is working with the US program "Study of Environmental Arctic Change" (SEARCH) to coordinate SEARCH and DAMOCLES implementation activities.
CADIS
The Cooperative Arctic Data and Information Service (CADIS) provides data management for the Arctic Observing Network (AON). AON is an NSF initiative for the International Polar Year (IPY) intended to improve observational capabilities in the Arctic and to leave a long-term legacy for the benefit of science and society. AON data are collected here, at this CADIS data portal. When fully developed, CADIS will be a portal for data discovery, near-real-time data delivery, and analysis and visualization as well as data storage. AON is integral to the Study of Environmental Arctic Change (SEARCH).
SEARCH for DAMOCLES
SEARCH for DAMOCLES is a joint initiative designed to bridge two independent Artic research programs, SEARCH (USA) and DAMOCLES (EU).
