CIFAR was established through a Memorandum of Understanding between NOAA and the University of Alaska. CIFAR was exclusively concerned with Arctic research. It worked closely with NOAA's [[Arctic Research Office]] and the [[Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory]] (PMEL). Partnerships with NOAA also included the [[National Marine Fisheries Service]] (NMFS), the [[National Ocean Service]] (NOS), and an emerging relationship with the [[National Weather Service]].<ref name=":0" />
