  • Guests: Brian Kim, Alina Spera


    The Beaufort Lagoons Ecosystem (BLE) long term ecological research team travels to the North Slope from six universities across the US to study five coastal lagoons across the region. The lagoons provide food and habitat for the large populations of migratory fish and waterfowl in the region and are the gateway between dozens of rivers and the Arctic Ocean. Tune into this episode as Brian and Alina describe the biological makeup of organisms in the lagoon, from tiny bacteria to fish, and investigate ecological processes such as nutrient cycling and food web dynamics that impact these lagoons. The BLE uses a wide array of approaches and methods to understand how long-term changes like warming or climate change may impact these unique ecosystems on the North Slope.
