There exists no awareness or decision-support system to enable long-term environmental planning, near-term cooperative actions, or real-time responses to humanitarian, economic, environmental, scientific, or security needs in the high north.\u0026nbsp;Arctic nations are pursuing technological approaches (e.g., novel satellite systems) to ameliorate this challenge driven by strategic interests, including their own populations in the Arctic territories, seeking natural resources for energy and other economic pursuits, and increasing geopolitical value of Arctic. A framework for coordinated information exchange between multiple civilian and defense authorities is needed. Implications for national security are explored considering absence or presence of such governance frameworks.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EOn the 3\u003Csup\u003Erd\u003C\/sup\u003E\u0026nbsp;of October, Nunn School\u0026nbsp;Associate Professor \u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/inta.gatech.edu\/people\/person\/margaret-e-kosal\u0022\u003EMargaret E.
