Alaska Salmon in a Warming World: From too hot to just warm enough

UAF Associate Professor Peter Westley will discuss the variable role of warming on Alaska’s salmon and its impact on salmon-reliant communities in a free statewide webinar. In some regions, warm summers are associated with unusual mortality, delayed migrations, and prespawning mortality on the spawning grounds. In other regions, warming is apparently 'just right' and is associated with historically high salmon abundances. In some regions, warming parallels increasingly observed occurrences of salmon in places that historically have been too cold. The talk concludes with a call to action regarding what tangible actions we can take to sustain the 14,000+ year relationship between salmon and people in Alaska. Westley is associate professor, Wakefield Chair of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, and principle investigator of the Salmonid Evolutionary Ecology and Conservation Lab at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (seec-lab.com).

Webinar: Using Kelp as Fertilizer

Erin Oliver, a postdoctoral researcher with Washington State University and a USDA Climate Hub Fellow for Alaska Agriculture stationed in Palmer, will discuss lab and field studies conducted at Matanuska Experiment Farm to investigate the effects of kelp on soil health and crop production in a free webinar. Kelp shows great promise for improving soil health and crop production in Alaska. Potential benefits include increased nutrient availability, improved soil pH, increased seed germination rates, and increased crop biomass. Using Alaska-grown kelp in agricultural soils provides both economic benefits for the mariculture industry and an alternative to commercial, inorganic fertilizers produced outside of Alaska. Studies have found that the benefits of kelp vary by soil type and amendment rates, but little research has been done in Alaska on this subject. The goal of this project is to determine the best method for applying kelp to Alaska soils. This talk will discuss both lab and field studies… Categories: Public events calendar - Fairbanks, Cooperative Extension calendar, Anchorage CES calendar, Bethel CES calendar, Bristol Bay/Dillingham CES calendar, Delta Junction CES calendar, Southeast CES calendar, Kenai/Soldotna CES calendar, Kodiak CES calendar, Mat-Su/Copper River CES calendar, Northwest/Nome CES calendar, Sitka CES calendar, Fairbanks/Tanana CES calendar.
