Registered as a charitable organization, ACUNS is a voluntary association of thirty-five Canadian universities and northern colleges with northern programs and interests. The purpose of ACUNS is the advancement of northern scholarship through education and research. Calm Air International Ltd. Operates daily scheduled airline service throughout northern Manitoba, northwestern Ontario and Nunavut. Contributes to CNSC Northern Research Fund, a matching-funds granting program available to researchers conducting research out of the Centre, by providing complimentary air tickets. Canadian Polar Commission Established in 1991 as the lead federal agency in the area of polar research. Responsible for disseminating knowledge of the polar regions and contributing to public awareness of the importance of polar science to Canada. Works closely with other governmental and non-governmental agencies to promote and support Canadian study of the polar regions. Provides a message forum and bulletin board related to northern issues, conferences, job postings, and grant information. Centre for Forest Interdisciplinary Research The Centre for Forest Interdisciplinary Research (C-FIR) at the University of Winnipeg will be gathering place for forest ecology researchers from around the world. On a national level, the University of Winnipeg will now offer the wider range of forestry relevant programming within Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The CNSC is proud to have been a founding partner of C-FIR and continues to sponsor the field work of several C-FIR faculty.

Table of contents Urban areas: the Polar Regions While the Antarctic is uninhabited, the Arctic has 3.75 million permanent residents, according to the Arctic Council. Most settlements have remained modest in size, with populations of less than 5 000 people. The vast majority of Arctic residents today are nonindigenous immigrants. This shift in demographic make-up has been accompanied by a steady increase in urbanization, with migration from smaller settlements to larger urban settings, a general trend throughout the Arctic (see box). Urban growth in the Arctic Greenland has experienced urban growth since the 1970s (Rasmussen and Hamilton 2001). Roughly one-quarter of Greenland’s population lives in Nuuk, the capital. This concentration of the urban population in one city is found in other Arctic countries: 40 per cent of Iceland’s growing population lives in Reykjavik, onethird of the Faroe Islands’ people lives in Torshavn, and almost 40 per cent of the population of Canada’s Northwest Territories’ lives in Yellowknife. Anchorage in Alaska is the only North American Arctic city with a population of more than 100 000. The rapidly growing population of Anchorage reached 262 200 in 2001, while the population of the next largest city of Arctic Alaska, Fairbanks, declined slightly over the past decade to 30 500.

The environment of the Polar Regions is particularly susceptible to human impacts such as pollution and the depletion of the ozone layer. Moreover, the effects of global warming on the Polar Regions are likely to have major repercussions in the rest of the world. Students will learn about how environmental problems affect the Polar Regions, and they will create magazine ads to educate the public about these problems and to convince people to pay more attention to human impacts on the Arctic and Antarctic.

National Science Foundation National Science Foundation: http://www.nsf.gov/ The NSF-funded genome research project to map Arabidopsis will yield important information about how flowering plants interact with their environments. Martin Yanofsky, University of California at San Diego Plant Genomes NSF, working with other organizations here and abroad, was the lead agency in establishing Arabidopsis thaliana as a model for understanding the biology of flowering plants. Arabidopsis, commonly called the thale cress or mouse eared cress, is a small annual weed that belongs to the mustard family. It has the smallest known genome of any flowering plant. In cooperation with genome centers worldwide, NSF expects that the complete genomic sequence of Arabidopsis will be available by the end of this year. Scientists have already sequenced approximately 80 percent of the Arabidopsis genome, and existing sequence data are freely available to the scientific community through public databases. Scientists are using this genetic information to explore the basic biology of all flowering plants and to engineer improvements in agriculturally-important crop plants. For instance, NSF-supported researchers recently succeeded in engineering plants that are more tolerant to cold temperatures. This work has profound implications for agricultural productivity since crops that are even a little hardier are much more likely to withstand sudden cold snaps that often cause major crop losses.
