The Arctic represents an important region for Japan, the U.S. and the world, and many opportunities and challenges press for immediate understanding to enable wise decisions and policy making. We have many common interests and our countries face many common problems and goals. Addressing the tremendous scientific challenges of the Arctic requires such massive investment of manpower and resources that sharing efforts, data and working together on expeditions are in our mutual best interests.This issue presents a compilation of selected results on recent analyses conducted in the five-year (2009-2014) research term related to observational studies, model development and remote sensing applications of the Arctic Ocean, adjacent marginal seas, and the surrounding terrestrial regions. All of these studies are intended to provide a better understanding of how individual components and processes interact to form a complex and dynamic arctic system. Through these collaborations, Japanese and UAF Arctic researchers can achieve our goals of developing a quantitative understanding of the Arctic System., JAMSTECとIARCは1998年以来、北極圏に関する共同研究を実施しているが、人員・資金の投入に当って役割を分担し、データを共有しつつ最適な現地観測の実施に取り組んでいる。この分冊は、JAMSTEC及びIARCの研究者が北極海と隣接海域、及びその周辺陸域で行なっている5ヶ年計画(2009-2014)で得た最新の結果を厳選して編纂したもので、観測、モデル開発、リモートセンシング応用などの各要素に関する成果を含んでいる。これらの研究は、いかに個々の要素と素過程が相互に関連して北極域の複雑な変動システムを形成しているのか、より良く理解するための知見を提供している。これらの共同研究を通じて、北極圏システムの定量的理解が進むであろう。}, pages = {49--52}, title = {JAMSTEC-IARC international collaboration enhancing understanding of the Arctic climate system}, volume = {7}, year = {2013} }
