🎬The festival will also be screening “This is a Story About Salmon,” a powerful short documentary film by @princessdaazhraii.bsky.social (Neets’aii Gwich’in), featuring Woods and other Alaska Native women advocating to save salmon and the future of their communities.

📸: the first article in the new issue of #Wildfire magazine on cultural burning, written by Edward Alexander.
Morten Høglund, Chair of the Senior Arctic Officials during Norway’s chairship of the #ArcticCouncil, and Solveig Rossebø, Senior Arctic Official for #Norway, hold copies of the new issue.

Great resource to learn abt Arctic Council Norwegian Chairship's Wildland Fires Initiative co-led by Edward Alexander.
"Efforts to protect ice-rich permafrost, support local adaptation, & integrate Indigenous Knowledge into policy...[are] essential for building resilience against Arctic wildfires."

@permafrostpathways.bsky.social @uafairbanks.bsky.social and collaborators are improving ecosystem models to predict changes in permafrost emissions. Early findings show significant permafrost thawing across Alaska and Canada. Future research will expand the model’s scope to the entire Arctic.

From intro: "significant warming in high-latitude regions...is driving earlier & prolonged fire seasons and increasing lightning activity. This intensifies extreme wildfires in boreal forests and introduces wildfires into the Arctic tundra..and accelerates carbon emissions from forests & peatlands.”

❄️ Together with our partners and collaborators, we continue to publish advances in permafrost science, influence critical Arctic policy, and support climate justice and adaptation efforts in Alaska and across the Arctic.

At the poster session, Tribal Liaison Reggie Tuluk shared updates on synergistic, multi-generational adaptation work his community is doing with Elders, youth, and researchers in Chevak, Alaska.

Christina Schädel @schaedelc.bsky.social shared work on updating models to include permafrost emissions. Preliminary results show just how important getting permafrost into the picture is for global carbon budgets. This budget 'blindspot' will grow the longer it takes us to bend the emissions curve.

We co-hosted a workshop with the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme to identify opportunities and steps toward a pan-Arctic coupled monitoring hub. Such a unified 'network of networks' would help to generate current, policy-relevant insights into fluxes and ecosystem change across the Arctic

Want to help answer these questions? The IPCC is seeking authors from a wide range of disciplines — and applications are open now.
