Arctic Science Summit Week 2023
February 17, 2023 - February 24, 2023
The Arctic Science Summit Week (ASSW) 2023 will be hosted in Vienna (Austria) from 17 – 24 February 2023. Deadline for abstract submission for the ASSW 2023 Science Symposium “The Arctic in the Anthropocene” (21 – 24 February 2023) is swiftly approaching: submit your abstract by 20 September 2022.
Never before has the Arctic experienced such a high pressure by human impact either by local environmental disturbances or by global climate change leading to long-term changes and massive challenges to the resistance and resilience of polar ecological systems and Arctic societies. “The Arctic in the Anthropocene” is a quite appropriate theme to focus on the increasing pressure of high latitudes. Several sessions offer space to shed light on short- and long-term changes, respectively, on human, terrestrial, aquatic or aerial systems. Despite the focus on the Arctic, contributions on the Antarctic, aiming at fostering networking and advances on research on both poles, are accepted and appreciated.
The conference will be held in a hybrid format including opportunities for both in-person and online oral and poster presentations.
