Virtual Access
Virtual Access means free access to stations’ data and databases. Altogether 25 research stations located in the Arctic and northern forest and alpine areas offer INTERACT Virtual Access. INTERACT Virtual Access Single Entrypoint is a data portal that allows you to search and access data and information from the Arctic and beyond.
The portal is based on metadata harvesting from several organizations and sites with end points to real data on various topics on e.g. earth sciences and ecosystems. The number of datasets presented in the portal is growing day by day, including both near real-time observation datasets and unique historical, retrospective data digitized and provided for open access.
When using the data retrieved via Virtual Access data portal in publications, please acknowledge the partner, station, or database providing the data and INTERACT Virtual Access.

CEN studies geosystems and ecosystems (terrestrial, freshwater and coastal) in the changing Arctic. The CEN Network is composed of 9 research stations and over 110 automated climate stations, and extends across a 4000 km gradient of ecozones, from boreal forest to extreme polar desert environments in the Canadian High Arctic. To archive and disseminate environmental data from this network and from other Arctic research and monitoring activities, CEN has established Nordicana D (www.cen.ulaval.ca/nordicanad), a formatted, peer-reviewed, online data publication series. Produced only in electronic form, the data entries can be updated, and derived values (daily, month and annual means) are freely and openly accessible. Each volume is indexed via an assigned Digital Object Identifier (DOI), which provides citation credit to the research group or individual. The volumes are cross-referenced in Polar Data Catalogue (www.polardata.ca), and contain extensive metadata, photographic documentation, and citation details. To date, 28 data series have been published, ranging from 29 years of climate station data. The average weather we would expect over a long period of time (seasons, years, decades). Climate varies from place-to-place across the Earth. Climate is determined by long-term (over at least... station data, to multi-year data from transects of borehole and near-surface ground temperatures, to groundwater monitoring, lake ice photographic data, microbiological DNA reference sequences, and lemming population monitoring data.
