Met station kind of day.
Loggers worked and the views were great.
Southbound from Toolik Field Station yesterday, it started off great with amazing fall foliage. As we drove south the colours remained great but the streams started to get higher and running over the road at times. We made it to Coldfoot and we're stuck there for the night.
Made it home today :)
A lot going on in Alaska today.
Up at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social we got a bit over 2.5 inches of snow.
Have you heard? @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social is celebrating 50 years of science! In honour of this milestone we are celebrating with a 1st Friday at Black Spruce Brewing Company on August 1st.
Come on out to celebrate Arctic research and art.
Wow, that is a huge swing in forecasted temperatures.
I can tell you fireweed, the harbinger of fall is starting to bloom.
They just emerged yesterday! Alas, I don't have any photos yet.
Great day @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social. Not only is the lake officially ice free but I got to get out via helicopter to a thermokarst lake to the south of Toolik to work on an eddy covariance tower.
Pretty good day all in all.

Powdermill Nature Reserve is hiring a position to work up some datasets, with fairly broad, open ended goals that can be tailored to interests/expertise. Possibility for remote work. Would make a great postdoc or even sabbatical project.

Very cool use of herbaria to look at salix growth.
I was curious about how much colder the temperatures this past week were compared to the 30 year average. Turns out it was cold!
Today was much warmer so hopefully the snow will continue to melt and summer will start.
Have not given up but also sort of over it. Currently snowing at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social
Still skiing on June 8th here at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social
The willows are starting to produce catkins and the lichens are vibrant.
Temps are expected to be above freezing this next week so we are hoping that more plants will start to flower.
What a great, if not snowy visitor day at Toolik Field Station. Thank you all for visiting and helping us celebrate our 50th Anniversary!

Congratulations Mingyue! Looking forward to seeing where you and your research go.
Ringing in meteorological summer today with skiing on fresh snow and a fox @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social .
The sun was out, the birds are still flying but now we are socked in a snow storm here at Toolik @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social Field Station .
After a great break in the warmth of Fairbanks I am back up @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social for a spell. With the clouds clearing and the recent snowfall the landscape is beautiful.
Good animal day @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social !
Caribou on the road due to soft snow led to great photo ops and filtering horned larks.
@woodwellclimate.bsky.social team setting up a new Eddy covariance tower.
Costume day in the field @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social today. Thanks to everyone for bringing colour to the tundra!
We're celebrating 50 years of Toolik with a special collection in Arctic Science @arcticsciencej.bsky.social . Thinking about publishing your Toolik research? Consider submitting to this collection!
Welcome back Artic Ground Squirrels.
Line graph of Toolik Lake Ice Thickness 2012-2025 and Ice Off dates (2021-2024). 2025 ice thickness was higher than the 2012-2024 average.
Hot off the R-press! This winter's ice thickness on Toolik Lake. Any bets as to when it'll be ice-free?
Thanks to Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social and Toolik's hardy year-round Spatial and Environmental Data Center team.
Thank you so much @arcticdatactr.bsky.social
Thank you @arcticdatactr.bsky.social for giving a great workshop on ethical principles in open access data at the @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social all scientist meeting.
@toolikfieldstation.bsky.social All Scientist meeting starts on Thursday with some pre-meetings tomorrow. Hope your ready Santa Barbara for an influx of Arctic researches and residents.
Sort of 😀 360 video of Alaska mosquitos in our VR headset at the Toolik booth.
Stop on by to check them out, you won't lose any blood. 🦟🦟
