A Mid-Term Assessment of NSF Progress on the 2015 Strategic Vision for Antarctic and Southern Ocean Research- Public Briefing

November 3, 2021

2:00 PM - 3:00 PM (ET)

Past

About

In 2015, the National Academies released a report that recommended three large-scale priority research initiatives in addition to a core program of broad-based research for NSF’s Antarctic Program. These priorities are: (1) understanding changing Antarctic ice sheets; (2) decoding the evolution and adaptation of Antarctic organisms; and (3) using cosmic microwave background radiation to explore the origin and ultimate fate of the universe.

Join us for the public report briefing for a study that provides a mid-term assessment to evaluate the state of progress in reaching the goals recommended in the 2015 study.

The report pre-publication will be available on the National Academies Press website at 11:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 28.
