The UNH Arctic Interdisciplinary effort\u00a0has received a\u00a02018 CoRE Initiative grant<\/strong>\u00a0to\u00a0propel the collective vision of the\u00a0UNH Strategy for Arctic Research and Scholarship<\/a>\u00a0into action. The University of New Hampshire aspires to address the emerging question, “What do changes in the Arctic mean for human communities?” We will build upon existing UNH research strengths to develop and submit a set of large convergent research proposals related to two broad themes: 1) Arctic Feedbacks: Humans, the Water Cycle, and Carbon Cycles and 2) Where People Live: Land-Coastal Connections. Recently the National Science Foundation designated Navigating the New Arctic (NNA) as one of the\u00a010 Big Ideas for Future NSF Investments<\/em><\/a>\u00a0for the coming decades, with Arctic change identified as one of six research areas requiring a convergent approach to address critical societal challenges. The University of New Hampshire, with decades of experience in the Arctic and having recently convened an NSF-sponsored workshop on\u00a0Preparing for a Northwest Passage: The Role of New England in Navigating the New Arctic<\/em><\/a>, is poised to become a national leader in Arctic research and scholarship. The vision is to build a more vibrant and interdisciplinary network of Arctic researchers at UNH and increase UNH visibility within the national Arctic dialogue.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

Workshop Report<\/a><\/p>\n

During this event, participants assessed economic, environmental, and social impacts of Arctic change on New England and established convergence research initiatives to prepare for, adapt to, and respond to these effects. Shipping routes through an ice-free Northwest Passage in combination with modifications to ocean circulation and regional climate patterns linked to Arctic ice melt will affect trade, fisheries, tourism, coastal ecology, air and water quality, animal migration, and demographics not only in the Arctic but also in lower latitude coastal regions such as New England. With profound changes on the horizon, this is a critical opportunity for New England to prepare for uncertain yet inevitable economic and environmental impacts of Arctic change.<\/p>\n

The UNH Arctic Interdisciplinary Working Group formed to promote interdisciplinary Arctic research and scholarship across the university, responding to new programs such as NSF’s Navigating the New Arctic.\u00a0 The working group hosted a series of UNH Arctic Seminars, bringing internationally renowned Arctic experts to share visions of the crucial research needed to prepare for Arctic change. This series culminated in a UNH Arctic Day, where faculty, staff, and students converged to develop a UNH Strategy for Arctic Research and Scholarship” centering around the question, “What do changes in the Arctic mean for human communities?” and focusing on two themes: 1. Arctic Feedback, the Water Cycle, and the Carbon Cycle and 2. Where People Live: Land-Coast Connection. The group expanded this work to a regional level through a grant to host, “NSF Convergence NNA: Preparing for a Northwest Passage: A\u00a0Workshop on the Role of New England in Navigating the New Arctic.” This workshop launched a network of over 100 researchers, stakeholders, and community leaders with a goals of assessing the economic, environmental, and social links between Arctic change and New England and identifying transformational convergence research initiatives to anticipate, prepare for, and adapt to future impacts and opportunities.<\/p>\n
