On February 4-5, leading scientists gathered in Monaco for the AASCO Summit, a pivotal event dedicated to strengthening international collaboration on critical #Arctic research. Coordinated by the @universityofhelsinki and supported by the Prince Albert Il of Monaco Foundation, the summit focused on identifying research gaps and enhancing cooperation to address the pressing challenges of climate change in the Arctic.
"By fostering interdisciplinary dialogue, strengthening cooperation, and embracing innovative research approaches, we can drive forward the solutions needed to safeguard the Arctic and, ultimately, our shared future. For these ambitions to succeed, faced with the forces opposing us, we need unwavering commitment." - H.S.H Prince Albert Il of Monaco
Key takeaways from #AASCO:
- Strengthening Arctic research infrastructure
- Addressing climate feedbacks between land, ocean & atmosphere
