Welcome to Aarhus for the first conference of the ARCPaC network!
The conference will be held in Aarhus in May 2026, and is organized by researchers from Aarhus University (AU), and the Geological Survey of Greenland and Denmark (GEUS).
Objectives of the conference include to promote knowledge exchange within the Arctic climate science community, to foster new partnerships and collaborations, and to encourage participation of early-career Arctic researchers.
The conference program is under development, but you can count on an icebreaker reception on Monday evening 25 May 2026, followed by 4 days of conference including a 1-day field excursion.
Conference registration will open here on the webpage in early 2026
ARCPaC is an international, interdisciplinary network of researchers focused on understanding climatic and environmental changes in the Arctic throughout the Quaternary. The research topics of ARCPaC include the investigation of the response to climatic changes of ice sheets and glaciers, high-latitude oceans including sea ice, and terrestrial environments and ecosystems, and interactions between these systems. The ARCPaC network is a continuation of PalaeoArc and is built on the legacy of previous Arctic research programs since the late 1980s including Past Gateways, APEX, QUEEN, and PONAM. ARCPaC Homepage
