This International Symposium on Polar Sciences has been held every year since 1994, building better understanding and consensus on the progress and future of the polar research programs. The theme of the symposium in 2012 is “Milestones in Polar Research Collaboration.” The main objective of this event is to examine polar environmental changes observed in atmosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere. The symposium will also address meteorites in the Antarctica and new technology for polar sciences.
