International Arctic Buoy Programme (IABP) Established by PSC in 1979 20 Participants from 9 countries. 33 buoys currently reporting Data are available in near real-time Research data are available through IABP web server: http://iabp.apl.washington.edu Alaska Canada Russia NOAA Affiliation (17 of 33 buoys) 4 Fully funded (purchase, deployment, & Argos costs) 3 NIC purchase and Argos costs funded by OGP 7 NIC Argos covered by OGP 3 NOAA/PMEL (NSF)

Enhancement of the International Arctic Buoy Programme (IABP) CRREL Ice Mass Balance Buoy (IMB) JAMSTEC Ocean Buoy (JCAD) Uses of IABP Observations: 1.Weather and ice forecasting 2.Validation of satellite data 3.Forcing, validation, and assimilation into numerical models 4.Climate Research Longest, continuing record over Arctic Ocean Over 500 papers have been written using observations from the IABP! Maintaining the IABP array is a challenge! AWI - Germany, JAMSTEC - Japan, PSC & CRREL - USA Collaboration and coordination has been the key to the IABP’s success!
