Contents Notes |
"The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and the National Science Foundation initiated the second phase of the [U.S. Antarctic Program] review. ... The purposes of this follow-on Blue Ribbon Panel ... on Antarctica and the Southern Ocean are to identify demands placed on the logistical enterprise if it is to support future scientific effort in the Antarctic region, to discern any mismatches with currently projected capabilities, and to propose appropriate opportunities and corrective actions. The present report addresses these issues, including the identification of steps that could substantially increase the amount and value of science pursued in the Antarctic region through greater overall effectiveness of the logistics system" --Page 1. |
