Observing Alaska Lake and River Freeze-up through Fresh Eyes on Ice

Presenters: Christopher Arp and Katie Spellman, University of Alaska Fairbanks 

Description:

The timing of freeze-up and winter conditions have changed throughout Alaska, and this has consequences for our ecosystems and our way of life in the winter season. Changing ice conditions and their influence on our winter travel and recreation safety has motivated the UAF "Fresh Eyes on Ice" project, a new freshwater ice observation network across Alaska. This presentation will provide an overview of freeze-up science and information on how you can be involved in helping share freeze-up and other ice condition observations this winter.

Thank you LEO Network members for joining us in the October webinar.

Respectfully,

The LEO Team at ANTHC
