Seawater sensor and measuring system manufacturer -4H-JENA engineering’s FerryBox, a multi-parameter water measurement system, is now being used to evaluate the role of global warming and glacial meltwater on the rising level of oxygen in the oceans aboard Ponant’s Le Commandant Charcot, one of the world’s few luxury icebreakers, a hybrid-electric vessel powered by liquified natural gas.

On Alaska's Yukon River, residents usually depend on catching salmon to eat all year. This year, a disruption in the supply of fish, in addition to inflation, is galvanizing a food crisis.

Thawing Arctic hillsides release a significant amount of organic carbon that has been locked in frozen ground for thousands of years but which now can contribute to an already warming climate, according to new research. The finding comes from the study of hillsides in a far north region of Russia, where the researchers also found a significant and rapid increase of collapsed hillsides. The collapses feature landslides that gradually expose more of the permafrost for thawing — and more carbon for release.

As an Interdisciplinary Supervisory General Engineer/Supervisory Physical Scientist, you will be the Director for the Office of Arctic Energy. The incumbent will provide overall authoritative leadership and direction in pioneering engineering and/or scientific development efforts in achieving new and innovative capabilities relative to Arctic and Alaskan energy security.

NOAA’s mission in the Arctic is to understand and predict changes in climate, weather, oceans and coasts, and to conserve and manage coastal and marine ecosystems and resources. Please join Dr. Spinrad as he discusses his goals in the Arctic to build a climate ready nation, make equity central to NOAA’s mission, and accelerate growth in an information-based new blue economy. Dr. Rick Spinrad is the Administrator of NOAA and is responsible for the strategic direction and oversight of the agency.

Successful implementation of genetic stock structure into fisheries management plans involves a series of complicated steps, from identification of genetic stock structure to interpretation in a management context, and development of an appropriate plan for incorporating the information into management. Join the NOAA Science Seminar Series for a discussion about how simulation studies support the use of 'Omics in catch allocation, as well as several examples where genomics has (and has not) supported the implementation of new management units.

Join the NOAA Science Seminar Series to review recent and current climate conditions around Alaska, discuss forecast tools, and finish up with the Climate Prediction Center's forecast for August 2022. Join the gathering online to learn what's happened and what may be in store with Alaska's seasonal climate.

The Forum is organized in cooperation with Naalakkersuisut - The Government of Greenland. The Focus of the 2022 Greenland Forum will be on climate and prosperity; and, geopolitics and progress.

The Arctic Circle Assembly is an open democratic platform with participation from governments, organizations, corporations, universities, think tanks, environmental associations, indigenous communities, concerned citizens, and others. It is nonprofit and nonpartisan.

The annual convention serves as the principal forum and voice for the Alaska Native community in addressing critical issues of public policy and government. The convention convenes thousands of official delegates and participants from membership organizations across the state. At the Convention, delegates discuss strategic opportunities and challenges, listen to memorable keynote speeches, hear reports from political leaders and presentations from expert panels, and share stories of resilience, experiences, strengths, knowledge, and hope for the future. The resolutions passed by the voting delegates set the priorities for the year and guide AFN’s efforts.

The Graduate Climate Conference (GCC) is an interdisciplinary climate conference run by graduate students, for graduate students. Over the last sixteen years, graduate students representing hundreds of academic institutions have come together to present research and share ideas on climate and climate change in an array of disciplines. Organizers welcome abstracts from diverse fields such as atmospheric sciences, biology, environmental management, forestry and fisheries sciences, oceanography, communication, public policy studies, urban planning, public health, and any other climate-related disciplines.

AGU Fall Meeting is the most influential event in the world dedicated to the advancement of Earth and space sciences. Every year, AGU Fall Meeting unites the Earth and space science community to share findings, connect like-minded scientists from around the world, and advance our profession and shared passion for the impact of science.

The key topics of Arctic Frontiers 2023 will reflect transformation, modeling, adaptation, and development in the rapidly changing global landscape. Furthermore, business development in viable industries and Arctic health will feature, due to their relevance with the concept of Moving North. While looking at both the long-term and short-term impacts of the environmental, humanitarian, and economic crises, looking for potential solutions will be a key driver of the Arctic Frontiers 2023: Moving North conference. 

The International Symposium on Arctic Research (ISAR) has been held every two years since 2008 and aims to present and discuss scientific results with researchers on the Arctic from all-over the world, extracting and sharing issues to solve, and exploring the future of the Arctic. ISAR-7 will consist of General Sessions and Special Sessions. General Sessions will address the following topics: atmosphere; ocean and sea ice; rivers, lakes, permafrost, and snow cover; ice sheets, glaciers, and ice cores; terrestrial ecosystems; marine ecosystems; geospacer; laws, politics, and economy; language, culture, and health; and, engineering for sustainable development.

The Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) is where energy professionals meet to exchange ideas and opinions to advance scientific and technical knowledge for offshore resources and environmental matters. The conference will include presentations discussing technical solutions, innovations, and advancements of all aspects of the offshore energy industry. Participants will include operators, research, vendors, and stakeholders. The experience of the last 50 years in the Arctic will be in attendance. That expertise and knowledge is available to move forward and support energy, mining, renewables, marine transport, tourism, and other activities in the harshest environments. Paper abstracts are due by September 22, 2022.
