The Arctic in Rapid Transition (ART) Initiative seeks to further climate understanding through integrative, cross-boundary studies of the Arctic. It formed in response to the last International Conference on Arctic Research Planning (ICARP), which stressed the need for synthesis activities in Arctic change science. The first ART workshop, to be held in Fairbanks at the International Arctic Research Center from November 7-9 2009, will focus on linkages within the marine system, including contributions from coastal zones, shelf seas, straits, and the deep ocean. Emphasis will be placed on not only geographical feedbacks, between the margins, shelves, and deep ocean, but also on physical, biogeochemical, and cryospheric interchanges. A range of time scales will also be explored, from paleoclimate to the rapid change currently being observed in the Arctic.The culmination of this workshop will be a science and implementation plan, addressing key questions in sea ice variability, land-ocean transport, and ecosystem responses. Leadership of and participation in the workshop includes several international early career scientists, who have drafted a white paper on the ART-related science to support systematic treatment of Arctic climate change. Representatives from northern stakeholder communities will also be included in the workshop to help draft an implementation plan, which will address the effects of near-term and projected climate change on the marine ecosystem.

北极快速转型（ART）倡议旨在通过对北极的综合跨界研究进一步了解气候。它的成立是为了响应上一届北极研究规划国际会议（ICARP），该会议强调需要在北极变化科学方面进行综合活动。第一次ART研讨会将于2009年11月7日至9日在费尔班克斯国际北极研究中心举行，重点讨论海洋系统内部的联系，包括沿海区、大陆架海、海峡和深海的贡献。重点将不仅放在边缘、大陆架和深海之间的地理反馈，而且放在物理、生物地球化学和冰冻圈交换上。还将探索一系列时间尺度，从古气候到目前在北极观测到的快速变化。本次研讨会的高潮将是一个科学和实施计划，解决海冰变化、陆地-海洋运输和生态系统响应等关键问题。研讨会的领导和参与者包括几位国际上的早期职业科学家，他们起草了一份关于art相关科学的白皮书，以支持对北极气候变化的系统处理。来自北方利益相关者社区的代表也将参加研讨会，以帮助起草一份实施计划，该计划将解决近期和预计的气候变化对海洋生态系统的影响。
