In particular, we invite oral and poster contributions on four themes divided in four thematic days:
- 25 May 2021: Role and dynamics of Arctic ice sheets and ice caps;
- 26 May 2021: Role and dynamics of high latitude ocean and sea ice;
- 27 May 2021: Role and dynamics of terrestrial environment and landscape evolution;
- 28 May 2021: Climate response to, and interaction between, different parts of the Arctic System.
Important dates:
Abstract deadline: 15 March 2021

The Program Committee will select the winner for the Best Student Talk and Best Student Poster award.
To be eligible, the presenting author of the poster must be a full-time student.
- 24 May 2021: a workshop on arctic foraminifera is offered for young researchers.
A special volume of Arctic Alpine and Antarctic Research (AAAR) is planned in conjunction with the PaleoArc2021 conference.
The special issue in AAAR (https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/uaar20/current) will be advertised with the conference.
On the registration sheet applicants will be asked if they plan on contributing to this collection of papers.
The online conference is free.
