Big news!
Webinars of the Action and Expert Groups of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR), Geoscience Group are planned for 2025!
The aim of these webinars is to inform participants about SCAR's geoscience activities, how they can get involved and develop new initiatives. ECR are especially encouraged to join!

The webinar series will present the objectives, activities and future plans of the Action and Expert Group. Each presentation will last approximately 30 minutes, followed by a 10-minute question and answer session and will be given in pairs (one senior or mid-career scientist and one junior scientist).
SCAR kindly provides the Zoom link for the webinars, which will only be shared with registered participants. Please register here:
