Second, funding possibilities that are restricted to single nations, or at best a few nations, make it extremely difficult to implement coordinated research that covers the variability in ecosystems and projected climate change throughout the circumpolar north, even though the instruments for coordination exist (e.g., within the International Arctic Sciences Committee, the International Council of Scientific Unions, and the International Geosphere – Biosphere Programme).

Uncertainties in the understanding of ecological processes and changes driven by climate and UV-B radiation 2009

In 1997 the basin was designated a Biosphere Reserve and one of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme study areas for research into global change, also into its wildlife and wetlands.
