T-MOSAiC

​T-MOSAiC is an IASC pan-Arctic, land-based program that would extend the activities that are currently in advanced planning for the IASC flagship program MOSAiC: ‘The Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate’, MOSAiC is a multinational year-round study (2019-2020) of the central Arctic Ocean to measure the coupling between atmosphere, sea ice, ocean and ecosystem processes.
 
The objective of the satellite program T-MOSAiC is to coordinate complementary activities that will both aid and benefit from MOSAiC (especially the modelling components) by extending the work to the lands surrounding the Arctic Ocean and to the northern communities who live on those lands.

T-MOSAiC Implementation

The planning of T-MOSAiC has developed through a series of international workshops sponsored by IASC. The Implementation Phase of T-MOSAiC is the establishment of Action Groups (TMAGS) focused on specific questions and outputs within the Science Plan framework. TMAGS are formally established through the Executive Committee of T-MOSAiC in response to specific suggestions and requests from the Steering Committee and other interested parties.
More information about the the T-MOSAiC Implementation and TMAGs is now available here.

T-MOSAiC at the ASSW2019 in Arkhangelsk

T-MOSAiC team had a very busy week during the ASSW2019. Nine presentations were performed by the chairs and the secretariat and very good positive feedbacks and suggestions were received by the Arctic community.
During the ASSW2019 a T-MOSAiC open session took place with scientific presentations followed by interesting discussions.
The highlight of the week were the presentation of the T-MOSAiC implementation plan that is focused in Action Groups leaded by international scientific experts. News about this plan will soon be available on the website.
The T-MOSAiC is very thankful for all presenters in the open and close meetings of the program.
