OCEAN:ICE will become part of the EU Polar Cluster, which brings us together with EC funded consortium projects studying the Arctic or Antarctic and Southern Ocean.

We will be starting this collaboration through teaming up with our sister project, SO-CHIC – Southern Ocean – Carbon and Heat Impact on Climate.

They are holding their annual science meeting on the 7th – 9th November at Sorbonne University in Paris, and we will follow this with our kick-off meeting on the 9th – 11th November, with a day of overlap to encourage knowledge exchange and collaboration and networking.
