International Arctic Research Center scientists on Friday, Dec. 11, will preview their upcoming poster presentations to the American Geophysical Union's fall meeting in San Francisco.

Topics include declining sea ice extent, windblown snow formations, climate models and disaster risk management. The IARC researchers will present their work between noon and 1 p.m. in the Akasofu Building lobby. Those who wish to speak with researchers in person should attend at that time, but the posters will be available for the rest of the afternoon.

The presentations Friday are part of IARC's Research Salon, a series of mind-opening intellectual discussions for the Fairbanks community.

The AGU fall meeting will be Dec. 14-18. The meeting is the largest Earth and space science meeting in the world, with nearly 24,000 attendees expected this year.
