Collaborative network: Connect and coordinate Arctic water researchers, utilities, authorities, and stakeholders to share data, standards, and best practices, and establish partnerships. Creating a network for finding partners in joint Arctic research proposals and initiatives.

Training and Capacity Sharing: Educate and build capacity through shared courses, field schools, micro-credentials, and mobility bridging engineering, natural and social sciences.

Synergize Knowledge on: 

• Conducting studies along the Arctic gradient represented by the Thematic Network institutions
• Refine standardized methods, using feedback to make necessary adjustments. Work is done in collaboration with joint contributions to Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP)
• Advance modelling and data assimilation with standardized observational operators and release open benchmark datasets for model intercomparison.
• Co-produce guidance for Arctic water resources management (floods, ice hazards, low flows, droughts) and community water security with Indigenous and local partners.
• Testing the methods on poorly monitored regions and sites in Arctic and enhancing use of remotely sensed data in wider Arctic.
• Studying extreme events, disturbance regimes and gradual changes and their impacts on combined hydrological and carbon cycles including associated greenhouse gas emissions.
