Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 26/09/2025Met station kind of day. Loggers worked and the views were great. 0111
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 28/08/2025Southbound from Toolik Field Station yesterday, it started off great with amazing fall foliage. As we drove south the colours remained great but the streams started to get higher and running over the road at times. We made it to Coldfoot and we're stuck there for the night. Made it home today :) 060
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 16/08/2025A lot going on in Alaska today. Up at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social we got a bit over 2.5 inches of snow. 1385
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 26/07/2025Have you heard? @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social is celebrating 50 years of science! In honour of this milestone we are celebrating with a 1st Friday at Black Spruce Brewing Company on August 1st. Come on out to celebrate Arctic research and art. 040
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 03/07/2025Wow, that is a huge swing in forecasted temperatures. I can tell you fireweed, the harbinger of fall is starting to bloom. 020
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 02/07/2025They just emerged yesterday! Alas, I don't have any photos yet. 110
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 02/07/2025Great day @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social. Not only is the lake officially ice free but I got to get out via helicopter to a thermokarst lake to the south of Toolik to work on an eddy covariance tower. Pretty good day all in all. @woodwellclimate.bsky.social 1252

Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 10/06/2025I was curious about how much colder the temperatures this past week were compared to the 30 year average. Turns out it was cold! Today was much warmer so hopefully the snow will continue to melt and summer will start. 130
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 09/06/2025Have not given up but also sort of over it. Currently snowing at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social 020
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 09/06/2025Still skiing on June 8th here at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social The willows are starting to produce catkins and the lichens are vibrant.

Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 20/11/2024One word to describe today, windy. As the morning light began to show the sky turned red. The old adage 'red sky at morning, sailors take warning' applied to us today here at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social. Winds sustained at 30 mph today with gusts at least 50 mph. 020
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 19/11/2024Sunrise and almost sunset today @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social hopefully we get a few more days like today before it sets later this week for the year. 020
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 16/11/2024It's been about -20 f for a high and down to -30f at Toolik for the past week. Any reason we are colder? Barely any winds so maybe just a cold sink next to the mountains? 110
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 16/11/2024The moon has been lighting our way when the sun sets for the night. @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social 010
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 16/11/2024Moon and sun. That is what the last few days have been about here at Toolik Field Station. We have about a week more of sunshine until the sets for the year and we are taking it in as much as possible, even with temps in the range of -25 to -30. 100
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 16/11/2024Yeah, I am trying to figure out how to change the timestamps. Photos are taken at AKST noon though. Would be nice if they were correct. 110

Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 10/05/2024Annual dig a giant snow pit day up at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social in the Imnaviat watershed. The snow pit is to allow snow melt (water) to run through a weir so we can calculate how much water and when it is flowing out of the watershed. 010

Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 28/01/2024Well we are not quite as chilly as Fairbanks or Cold foot here at @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social but it is still -40 out so it is pretty darn cold. Today I spotted a small flock of ptarmigan browsing in the willows around the station and basking in the sunlight. 041
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 22/01/2024Golden glow of the winter sun lighting up the landscape. 010
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 21/01/2024Caught the sun over the horizon today @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social Good day to be inside as the temps have been below -30 f all day with wind chills around -50 f. 000
Dr. Amanda Young @ubetula.bsky.social · 19/01/2024Back up @toolikfieldstation.bsky.social for the next couple of weeks. Snow storm rolled in while we were out today making it an interesting commute home. Felt like a blend between flying through space and being out on the high seas during a storm. Nice to be back up north for a bit. 010
