Within this context, the IPY will galvanize new and innovative observations and research while at the same time building on and enhancing existing relevant initiatives. It also will serve as a mechanism to attract and develop a new generation of scientists and engineers with the versatility to tackle complex global issues. In 2004, the National Academies' Polar Research Board organized a workshop to explore the challenges associated with these initiatives. Planning for the International Polar Year 2007-2008 summarizes the presentations and discussions from this workshop. 606 $aGlaciers$zPolar Regions 606 $aPhysical geography$zPolar Regions 607 $aPolar regions$xClimate 615 0$aGlaciers 615 0$aPhysical geography 676 $a551.6072 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bU.S. National Committee for the International Polar Year 2007-2008. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910963871603321 996 $aPlanning for the International Polar Year 2007-2008$94358250 997 $aUNINA
