ACEAS aspires to make significant contributions in many ways, including:

• Research impact: develop knowledge to help reduce the impact of unexpected developments and the passing of tipping points in the East Antarctic and the adjacent Southern Ocean
• Establishing fundamental datasets and tools of international significance: revealing key processes, observations of state and change, and developing new capabilities for predicting the future of the East Antarctic and the Southern Ocean.
• Partnership and stakeholder engagement: working with key stakeholder groups across industry and government, as well as international policy-informing and regulatory agencies
• Workforce development: developing a new generation of early-career researchers trained broadly in Antarctic science, law, governance and policy, who are ready for jobs in industry, government and academia.

Recent reports:

• ON THIN ICE: a science briefing about changes in Antarctic sea ice
• Antarctica and the Southern Ocean: insights from the 2022 IPCC WGII report
