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!🌍❄️

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!

Wrapping up #CRRC2025 with the final oral session: Permafrost & Cryosphere, chaired by @aliciapouw21! ❄️🌍 From thawing permafrost and contaminant transport to ice roads and snow cover changes, this session dives into critical cold regions research! 🔬 #ScienceInAction

Fascinating talks to begin the Permafrost & Cryosphere session ! ❄️ Tobias Leonhard explored permafrost thaw and contaminant transport, Joseph Younh examined mass wasting in the Mackenzie Valley, and Maria Dolan revealed how thaw slumps reshape stream food webs. 🔬🌿

Closing out #CRRC2025 with incredible insights! 🌨️ Maryam Bayatvarkeshi discussed how seismic lines impact snow timing and depth, and Arash Rafat explored early winter variability and its effects on ice road construction. Huge thanks to all our speakers! 👏❄️ #ScienceInAction

That's a wrap on #CRRC2025! 🎉❄️ A huge thank you to all attendees, presenters, and organizers for an incredible conference filled with insightful research and great discussions. Congratulations to our award winners! 👏 See you all next year! #ColdRegionsResearch #ScienceInAction

Congratulations to Alicia Pouw for winning 1st place and Mackenzie Mihorean for taking 2nd place in the #CRRC2025 Poster Presentation competition! 🏆🎉 Amazing posters from all participants—great work showcasing cold regions research! ❄️👏 #ScienceInAction

Join us in welcoming new Assistant Professor Dr. Kate Hale to @ubc Geography! Dr. Hale’s research focuses on how snowpack interacts with both the climate and downstream water resources. ❄️🏔️💧 Learn more about Dr. Hale & her lab: bit.ly/Dr_Kate_Hale
