Field season 2024 documentation
The newest version of the Field Season plan for EGRIP 2024 is the plan for the field work, and contains a description of the objectives of the field season, a list of the participants, and various practical and technical information.

Situation reports
The SITREPs (situation reports) are prepared weekly by the Field Operations Managers (FOMs) who run the field office in Kangerlussuaq on the Greenland West coast. All situation reports will be published during the field season when prepared by the FOMs – see links below.
A SITREP contains a summary of the week's main science and logistics activities together with a list of personnel and cargo movements. The SITREPs are logistical and technical reports in contrast to the field diaries that describe the daily life and science progress in the camp.
