International Arctic Research Center

The International Arctic Research Center (IARC) is a collaboration of scientists and institutions focused on studying the Arctic region, which includes the North Pole and surrounding areas. Its goal is to understand how the Arctic's climate, ecosystems, and environment are changing, especially due to global warming. By sharing knowledge and resources internationally, IARC helps improve predictions of regional and global climate impacts and supports informed decision-making. It plays a key role in advancing scientific research on the Arctic’s unique environment, contributing to policies that address environmental and climate-related challenges in this sensitive and rapidly changing part of the world.
