Chair: Shigeto Nishino (JAMSTEC)
The Synoptic Arctic Survey (SAS) is a coordinated multi-ship, multi-nation, pan-Arctic, ship-based sampling campaign that was conducted during 2020-2022 to study pan-Arctic ocean-circulation, biogeochemical cycles, and marine ecosystems. The SAS project is planning for a second ship-based sampling campaign (SAS II) in 2030. In this session, we will discuss the results from the first SAS project and plans for the success of SAS II. A side meeting focused on the SAS II Science and Implementation Plan will be held. This session is in-person, but the side meeting will be hybrid (in-person and online meeting by Zoom).
