April 2017 – My predecessors and I have been collecting climate change-related data in the Mackenzie Mountains since 1990. In this Earthwatch webinar I explain why each year of monitoring is crucial and why Earthwatch volunteers are so important to this effort. Always remember: ice melts, but permafrost thaws!

March 2016 – The Churchill Northern Studies Centre in northern Manitoba posted a video of some of my timelapse snow monitoring across the forest-tundra. In addition to providing a daily record of snow depth and plant phenology, the images make for a very cool look at changing subarctic seasons! Check it out here with music added for dramatic effect:
