Summary
Abstract: The Southern Hemisphere Working Group (SHWG) was chartered by the Council of the International Permafrost Association. It's goal is to create a scientific platform to bring together and stimulate interaction between permafrost and periglacial researchers in the Southern Hemisphere. The SHWG also aims to synthesize permafrost and periglacial research data and information from the Southern Hemisphere. SHWG members reviewed the understanding, issues, and current status of permafrost for their respective regions, and published their findings in South African Journal of Science Volume 98, Number 1-2). The SHWG is also compiling a comprehensive bibliography on permafrost and periglacial studies for the various regions in the Southern Hemisphere.
Access Constraints Data are expected to be available from the GSFC Earth Sciences (GES) Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) about one year after launch. The DAAC Science Team will provide regular updates regarding data product releases in the future.
