ACCESS - Arctic Climate Change Economy and Society

ACCESS is a European Project supported within the Ocean of Tomorrow Call of the European Commission Seventh Framework. ACCESS will evaluate the latest arctic climate change scenarios and establish their impacts on marine transportation (including tourism), fisheries, marine mammals and the extraction of hydrocarbons in the Arctic for the next three decades with particular attention to environmental sensitivities and sustainability.

ISAC is working in partnership with ACCESS to further co-ordination and collaboration in arctic system science, including the development of initiatives which will enhance ongoing observing initiatives for the benefit of a diverse group of stakeholders including the scientific community.
