NySMAC

The Ny-Ålesund Science Managers Committee (NySMAC) was established in 1994 to enhance cooperation and coordination amongst research activities at the Ny-Ålesund International Arctic Research and Monitoring Facility.

NySMAC ensures that ongoing and planned research is not in conflict with environmental laws and regulations, and provides advice and comments on issues such as research planning and coordination, infrastructure development, and environmental protection.

The committee regularly convenes international scientific seminars and workshops focusing on topics related to research carried out in the Ny-Ålesund area, and publishes the news bulletin Ny-Ålesund Newsletter twice yearly.

NySMAC includes representatives from all parties with major vested interests in Ny-Ålesund.

The NySMAC Secretariat is located at Norwegian Polar Institute Svalbard in Longyearbyen.
