Ex-Typhoon Halong: The Weather and Climate Story
Join the UAF Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Preparedness for this month’s ACCAP webinar about ex-Typhoon Halong and the catastrophic flooding and damaging winds it brought to parts of western Alaska, particularly across the Kuskokwim Delta region. The webinar will focus on the weather and climate aspects of this exceptional event. ACCAP will also discuss the evolution of the storm, how unusual it was for a former typhoon to take this track so far north, how rare storms of this strength are in the eastern Bering Sea, and how weather forecast models performed leading up to the event. Register for the event on the ACCAP website.

VAWS Webinar - Weather and Avalanche Forecasting in Southcentral Alaska
GINA and ASF, in partnership with ACCAP, will be hosting a Virtual Alaska Weather Symposium (VAWS) webinar in December on Weather and Avalanche Forecasting in Southcentral Alaska. Carson Jones, lead meteorologist for the National Weather Service, Anchorage, and Mik Dalpes, avalanche specialist for the Chugach National Forest Avalanche Center, will examine the complexities of forecasting mountain weather in Alaska and its impacts on snowpack evolution, avalanche hazard, and operational forecasting. It will detail the analytical tools, model guidance, and observational networks used by meteorologists and avalanche forecasters to assess and communicate risk, forecast confidence, and uncertainty across Southcentral Alaska.

INE @ 40
INE @ 40: Celebrating Four Decades of Northern Innovation
The Institute of Northern Engineering (INE) is turning 40, and we’re marking this milestone with an evening that honors our past, highlights our present, and looks boldly toward the future.
For four decades, INE has been at the forefront of Arctic and sub-Arctic research—advancing solutions in water and environmental systems (WERC), energy and natural resources (NEREC), and infrastructure development (AIDC). Together, these centers have driven discoveries that shape Alaska and the circumpolar North.
Join us for a special reception featuring:
Showcase tours of INE labs and facilities
Highlights of groundbreaking research from across our centers
Networking and connection with faculty, students, alumni, and partners
Celebration of 40 years of impact and innovation
