The Ice Core Working Group (ICWG) of the U.S. National Science Foundation Ice Drilling program (IDP) invites nominations, including self-nominations, from the U.S. scientific community to fill one open position on the ICWG. The ICWG aims to have diverse representation from a range of scientific expertise and career stages.


Nord University has joined Arctic Six, previously known as Arctic Five. The alliance also operates as a UArctic Regional Centre.
