The workshop will address the specificities important for the implementation of the Polar Argo array in the general framework of the OneArgo design. They aim to review scientific advances made from existing Argo-based studies in the Southern and Northern hemispheres, in order to highlight the scientific motivations behind the future full-scale deployment of the polar Argo array, in particular in the Arctic Ocean and the Polar Marginal Seas at high latitudes. They aim to further include scientific studies arising from synergies with existing modelling, satellite, and other observing system activities in the polar regions. Beyond the scientific studies, the workshop also aims to review and discuss the specificity of the Polar Argo array, in terms of float technology and software and protocols for data management.
