IARC at Alaska Forum on the Environment 2022

IARC is an active partner in the 2022 Alaska Forum on the Environment. For the eleventh straight year, Nancy Fresco, the network coordinator for IARC’s Scenarios Network for Alaska + Arctic Planning, organized the climate change track of the conference. During the virtual event, IARC scientists and staff are sharing information on southeast Alaska drought, berries and climate change, chinook salmon and more. We hope to connect with our colleagues and friends during the following presentations and events.
