Global Science in the Antarctic Context:
    British Antarctic Survey Strategy to 2012

    British Antarctic Survey , 2006

    This strategy document provides an outline of how we are going to work towards this - recognising that our strategy must be flexible enough to develop and change as the work progresses.

We are already an international leader in Antarctic science relevant to global problems - carrying out science that is excellent, relevant and important. But we can and must do more, widening our focus to include the whole planet (now called Earth System Science.

Seven key objectives are explored which include how we choose our science, international collaboration, staff development and public outreach; and ways in which we will measure our success.

The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) is a component of the Natural Environment Research Council. Based in Cambridge UK, it has, for almost 60 years, undertaken the majority of Britain's scientific research on and around the Antarctic continent
