AK CASC science at AGU 2022
AK CASC researchers and students are participating in the 2022 American Geophysical Union fall meeting held both virtually and in Chicago. We hope to connect with our colleagues and friends during the following presentations and events.
For those in Chicago, please stop by the University of Alaska Fairbanks booth (number 2137) which is co-hosted by IARC science communications team.
There will be many presentations across the event from other Climate Adaptation Science Centers. This post from the USGS National Climate Adaptation Science Center website provides more information about other CASC network activities at AGU.
For AK CASC updates during the meeting follow IARC on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram. To learn about AGU activities across UAF follow the #UAFxAGU hashtag on social media platforms.
