NERC Arctic Office

This is a new Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) resource to support UK Arctic researchers and is hosted at the British Antarctic Survey (BAS) in Cambridge.

The Arctic Office supports UK Arctic researchers in establishing links to international collaborators and in accessing polar infrastructure and logistical support, including:
