Introduction

SCAR’s scientific research adds value to national efforts by enabling national researchers to collaborate on large-scale scientific programmes to accomplish objectives not easily obtainable by any single country. SCAR’s members currently include 37 nations and 9 ICSU scientific unions.

SCAR’s success depends on the quality and timeliness of its scientific outputs. Descriptions of SCAR’s research programmes and scientific outputs are available at: www.scar.org. This paper summarises SCAR highlights since the last annual report, including selected science highlights for the past year, which are listed in Appendix 1.

SCAR produces an electronic quarterly Newsletter highlighting relevant science and other SCAR related issues (www.scar.org/newsletter).
