@aliciapouw21
! ❄️🌍 From thawing permafrost and contaminant transport to ice roads and snow cover changes, this session dives into critical cold regions research! 🔬 #ScienceInAction
Beginning the Peatland & Agriculture oral session at #CRRC2025 chaired by Katryna Barone! 🌿🌾The session presentations will explore how mining roads, wildfires, seismic lines, and land conversion impact peatland carbon storage, soil health, and agriculture in northern landscapes. 🔥 #ScienceInAction
Great energy at the #CRRC2025 poster session with 15 incredible presentations! 🔬❄️ From Arctic ice and hydrology to wildlife, climate change, and ecosystem restoration, students shared fascinating research. Lots of great discussions and engagement! 👏 #ScienceInAction
Fantastic start to the session with Caroline Duncan discussing water quality from source to tap in Cambridge Bay, Mathew Mervyn on beaver impacts on tundra streams, and Nick Luymes examined muskox habitat selection below treeline! 💧🦫🐂 #ColdRegionsResearch #CRRC2025
Great panel discussion to start off Day 3 this morning at #CRRC2025 on the transition from grad school to the workforce! Lots of insightful questions from students and fantastic input from panelists Eric Meliton, Kellie McCormack, Mike Morrice, and Emily Stahl. Huge thanks for guiding future grads!
Networking + games + pizza = the perfect social event at #CRRC2025! 🎮🍕 Great conversations were had and high scores were tried at the arcade bar! A fun way to connect and unwind. 🙌 #NetworkingMadeFun
With 40+ students registered, the #CRRC2025 fieldwork workshop got students thinking ahead about how to be ready for their field season! 🏕️🧭 Covering often-overlooked essentials—knots, ratchet straps, GPS use, survival gear, and logistics—it was a great refresher for field prep! ❄️🔬 #FieldworkReady
The last oral session of Day 2 at #CRRC2025 with an exciting session on remote sensing! 🛰️❄️ From tracking snow phenology shifts to 3D modeling of Great Bear Lake and land cover change in Old Crow Flats—powerful tools for understanding our changing landscapes! 🌍🔬 #ScienceInAction #RemoteSensing
Insightful afternoon at #CRRC2025 with oral sessions on water quality and biology! 💧🐟 From metal toxicity in aquatic life to Arctic river chemistry, researchers are deepening our understanding of freshwater ecosystems. Great discussions on environmental change! #ScienceInAction #Biology
13 incredible 3-minute thesis presentations showcasing cutting-edge cold regions research at #CRRC2025! ❄️🔬 In just 180 seconds, students shared powerful insights on wildlife, climate change, water, and ecosystems. The future of northern research is bright! 👏 #3MT #ScienceCommunication
More from the #hydrology session with topics covering modelling snow dynamics, multi-decadal changes in Arctic watersheds, and the influence of snowmelt runoff on lake-level rise in the Peace-Athabasca Delta! ❄️ 💧
#CRRC2025 #ArcticResearch
Amazing hydrology session with a fantastic range of topics! From thermokarst lakes and beaver dams to modeling lake-rich Arctic watersheds, it’s been a great look into the evolving hydrological landscape of the Arctic. 🦫 🌊🧊
Big thanks to all the presenters! #Hydrology #CRRC2025
A wonderful keynote from Dr. John Smol at the #CRRC2025 Conference, where he explores how Arctic lakes and ponds have reached critical ecological thresholds due to climate warming. A very compelling paleoenvironmental assessment of the profound changes unfolding over time!🌍❄️
