A global system of polar research facilities and related resources
POLARIN is a project dedicated to the management of large polar research infrastructures with the goal of creating an international network capable of addressing the scientific challenges facing the Arctic and Antarctic, two remote areas with hostile climates. The network includes a wide variety of high-level, complementary and interdisciplinary research infrastructures: Arctic and Antarctic research stations, research ships and icebreakers operating at both poles, observatories, data infrastructures, and ice and sediment repositories. POLARIN will standardize the collection of data on sea-atmosphere exchanges into a single system to enhance the flow of and access to information in an area that has always been characterized by the scattered presence of research infrastructure that has led to fragmented knowledge of processes.
ETT will be in charge of managing data streams collected from polar infrastructure.
POLARIN will:
- Provide challenge-driven transnational access to a large portfolio of research infrastructures.
- Improve the access to data by improving data availability and interoperability between data infrastructures.
- Provide virtual access to data and data services
- Provide data products for the scientific community and decision makers.
- Train the young generation of polar researchers in optimally exploiting the infrastructures for their research
- Duly advertise the services offered by POLARIN and engage the infrastructure users to share their research outcomes with society
