Event Summary
On October 12, 2025, a powerful coastal storm brought hurricane-force winds and devastating storm surges to Western Alaska. The floodwaters swept through towns and remote villages, carrying away homes and displacing entire communities. As residents survey the damage left in the storm's aftermath, how can researchers collaborate with communities to create strategies to prepare for and adapt to the challenges of increasingly extreme weather? In this Explorer Series Conversation, we talk with NSF NCAR scientists Alice DuVivier and Laura Landrum about the recent Alaskan floods and their work in partnership with Alaskan communities.
Free public event recommended for ages 12+
