Rapid Arctic warming drives profound change in the marine environment that have
significant socio-economic impacts within the Arctic and beyond, including climate
and weather hazards, food security, transportation, infrastructure planning and resource
extraction. These concerns drive efforts to understand and predict Arctic environmental
change and motivate development of an Arctic Region Component of the Global
Ocean Observing System (ARCGOOS) capable of collecting the broad, sustained
observations needed to support these endeavors. This paper provides a roadmap
for establishing the ARCGOOS. ARCGOOS development must be underpinned
by a broadly endorsed framework grounded in high-level policy drivers and the
scientific and operational objectives that stem from them. This should be guided
by a transparent, internationally accepted governance structure with recognized
authority and organizational relationships with the national agencies that ultimately
execute network plans. .....
