Description |
The aim of the
symposium was to develop a better understanding of the ice deformation
process and the role of ice movements in the atmosphere-ice- ocean-system.
The major objective was to bring together the researchers who have made
significant by various scales of the study of sea ice and those who have
made contributions to the mechanics of sea ice and to establish a common
understanding of the processes. |
Progress |
The workshop was
held in Fairbanks, Alaska on January 12 - 15, 2000 and was attended by over
100 scientists in the field of sea ice. Proceedings have been published
(ISBN 1-4020-0171-1) and can be purchased from the Library of Congress. |
