Temperature at Gulkana and talk
Vladimir Romanovsky and Kenji Yoshikawa met near Gulkana airport for measuring permafrost temperature. Prof. Tom Osterkamp set up this site since mid 1980s. This is one of the most exciting monitoring sites for all science community. We had a little bit hard time to work by the cold morning. But we successfully measure nice temperature profile.
Kenji had a opportunity to talk for local community at night. Janelle and Dave (Wrangell Institute for Science and Environment (WISE)) organized and prepared fantastic place (National Park Service). There is great team work with Glenn Hart (Program Manager at Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve). It was nice Friday evening with good audience and staff.
