Barrow Photos

On September 19 Dr. Shepson and myself left for 4 days in Barrow to get some logistical issues squared away, and for me to see what we have gotten ourselves into!  Along the way we met up with Peter Lourie, a childrens book author who is going to be writing a book about our work in Barrow, and climate change.  It was great trip; we got a lot of things accomplished, a lot of important decisions were made, and we got to see some unique things that I never thought we would be able to see in the short time we had.  Please click on the following links to see photos of our trip.
