While them are numerous conferences on global change, this conference dealt specifically with the polar regions which occupy key positions in the global system. Conference,--Global Change, Polar Regions, Global System Over 400 scientists from 15 different countries attended and presented 200 papers on research in the Arctic and Antarctic. The papers were distributed among seven major themes and sessions, each having about three invited papers, a dozen contributed papers, and 15-20 poster papers. These papers, or their abstracts, are contained in the two proceedings volumes. In publishing the papers we did not distinguish between invited, contributed, or poster papers, but gave them all equal weight. On the final day of the conference three panels met to discuss problems and priorities in polar research. A summary of their recommendations follows the final section of papers.
