The Ice Core Working Group (ICWG) of the NSF Ice Drilling Program (IDP) invites nominations, including self-nominations, from the U.S. scientific community to fill one open position on the ICWG. The ICWG aims to have diverse representation from a range of scientific expertise, institutional affiliation, and career stages. The ICWG welcomes nominations of all areas of ice core science, with a preference towards expertise in glaciology and/or physical properties of ice. Nominees must be U.S.-based scientists whose science relies on the analysis of ice or firn cores. The ICWG is one of two working groups of the IDP Science Advisory Board (SAB). The primary purpose of the ICWG is to provide advice and input on scientific issues pertaining to ice cores to the SAB and to the IDP. ICWG members typically serve for five years, participate in the annual ICWG meeting (which is usually online, with an in-person meeting in FY 2026), and collaborate remotely throughout the year as needed.
Please send nominations and expressions of interest to icedrill@dartmouth.edu at your earliest convenience before October 16, 2026.
