Boreal Forest Observatory (BFO)
|
Boreal Forest Observatory |
The Boreal Forest Observatory is a research and teaching platform located on the University of Alaska Anchorage Campus. The observatory's aim is to quantify the abiotic and biotic processes of a forest in an urban setting and to provide real-time data for use by students, researchers, the public and resource managers.

Arctic Observing Network
|
|
The Arctic Observing Network (AON) is a new program in NSF that seeks to monitor and measure Arctic climate change processes on land, in aquatic, in marine and in atmospheric arenas. ENRI has two AONs, one addressing vegetation change in the Pan Arctic and the other addressing native community responses to changing conditions.

|
The International Polar Year is a program that focuses on the state and fate of the arctic today using a network of simultaneous studies in the biological, earth and social sciences supported by all of the arctic countries (US, Russia, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, United Kingdom, Iceland, Canada and Japan). ENRI has received IPY funding from the National Science Foundation, Office of Polar Programs (J Welker and colleagues) to study snow-shrub processes and feedbacks in northern Alaska at the Toolik Lake Field Station. The second ENRI IPY project has been awarded to Lil Alessa and Andy Kliskey to study water resources and their use by societies in Alaska.

| United States Network for Isotopes in Precipitation (USNIP) |
USNIP
|
The United States Network for Isotopes in Precipitation (USNIP) is collaboration between the University of Alaska Anchorage and the University of Colorado at Boulder. This project constitutes an effort to provide d 18 O and d D isotopic values for ~80 sites across the United States

| Alaska Water Isotopes Network (AKWIN) |
AKWIN
|
AKWIN is statewide organization funded by the UAA Environment and Natural Resources Institute (ENRI) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) to develop a GIS-based data layer package that will allow us to quantify, analyze, compare and contrast the patterns of stable isotopes in the hydrological cycle across Alaska.
