On 1-5 February 2021, Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System (SIOS) held a multidisciplinary workshop on snow research in Svalbard with more than 100 participants. This agenda paper is a result of consultations during and after the workshop and builds on the combined expertise of researchers and scientists from various disciplines (glaciology, biology, climatology, etc.), all of whom share a common interest and concerns with the present state and the future of snow-covered environments in the Arctic. The agenda is intended to serve as a goal-setting, supporting reference document that can be used and cited by researchers, stakeholders and organisations planning snow-related research activities on Svalbard. It can, among other uses, be referred to when preparing applications for research funding by individuals, teams or consortia.
