The PI's request partial funding to support the publishing of a special issue of Oceanography magazine in September 2011 (volume 24, number 3) on the topic of Arctic oceanography. The Arctic Ocean is experiencing profound changes, including shrinking amounts of sea ice, ocean acidification, increasing ocean temperatures, all of which have consequences for Arctic ecosystems. The proposed set of peer reviewed papers will cover the geological, physical, chemical, biological, and human dimension aspects of recent Arctic change as observed during the recent International Polar Year. These topics represent major investments by US and international funding agencies. Broader Impacts: The proposed focus on the Arctic is timely and important, given rapidly changing conditions and the recent wealth of activity related to the IPY. This activity will advance understanding of the dynamically changing Arctic. With the intense focus on the Arctic by research funding agencies, government agencies and industry, publications such as this would be helpful for identifying gaps in research. The audience of TOS is broader than academic scientists, and is used by K-12 and informal educators as well as the academic community. And TOS has been a champion of helping scientists with education and outreach, through partnerships with COSEE and others.

国际海洋学联合会请求提供部分资金，以支持2011年9月出版一期以北极海洋学为主题的《海洋学》杂志特刊(第24卷，第3期)。北冰洋正在经历深刻的变化，包括海冰数量减少、海洋酸化、海洋温度上升，所有这些都对北极生态系统产生了影响。拟议的一套同行评议的论文将涵盖在最近的国际极地年观察到的近期北极变化的地质、物理、化学、生物和人类方面的问题。这些主题代表了美国和国际融资机构的重大投资。更广泛的影响：考虑到迅速变化的情况和最近与国际海洋年有关的大量活动，拟议的对北极的关注是及时和重要的。这项活动将增进对动态变化的北极的了解。随着研究资助机构、政府机构和产业界对北极的高度关注，这样的出版物将有助于确定研究中的差距。TOS的受众比学术科学家更广泛，被K-12和非正式教育工作者以及学术界使用。通过与COSEE和其他机构的合作，TOS一直是帮助科学家进行教育和推广的倡导者。
