Abstract    

     This award supports the operation of the PALE Steering Committee for the
     Paleoclimate of Arctic Lakes and Estuaries (PALE) initiative as part of Arctic
     Systems Science (ARCSS).  The Steering Committee will develop science and
     management plans for this program and will be active in the implementation of
     the research activities.  Pale is entering a critical phase of data collection,
     synthesis and interpretation.  This award will support 1) annual meetings of
     PALE researchers for the exchange and synthesis of results, 2) small workshops
     to address specific research needs, and 3) Steering Committee efforts to
     coordinate projects and maintain communication among PALE researchers.
