RAC members are responsible for ensuring that information from various research fields is shared with the entire APECS membership. They collect and disseminate information relevant to the specific scientific area they chair, coordinate forum and literature discussions, support the activities of APECS members regarding the organization of workshops and seminars, and encourage the establishment of linkages between research areas through a close cooperation with the other RAC members. The Research Activities Committee aims at developing new research questions and approaches this by integrating various research fields and by identifying and answering the system-level questions necessary for understanding the environs of the Polar Regions.
