Folder SCAR Publications
Many SCAR publications are individual, one-off publications which are classed as “occasional” since they do not form part of a series. Recent Occasional Publications include the Biogeographic Atlas of the Southern Ocean, the Antarctic Climate Change and the Environment report, the History of SCAR (“Science in the Snow”) and SCAR’s Strategic Plans. Here you will find some of those high level publications.
Folder Antarctic Climate Change and the Environment (5)
SCAR has collaborated with scientists across the globe to produce the Antarctic Climate Change and the Environment Decadal Synopsis (ACCE). The report summarises a decade’s worth of research, providing a concise compiled synopses of current understanding, explicit recommendations for actions to address change, and recommendations for additional research.
The full report, different language versions, infographics and recommendations are available to download here.
