The Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy (ACCAP) announces a
webinar entitled "Alaska and the National Climate Assessment: Who, What,
Where, When, Why, and How You Can Be Involved," which is scheduled for
Tuesday, 25 October 2011 from 10:00-11:00 a.m. AKDT. The webinar will be
presented by Sarah Trainor from ACCAP, and Carl Markon from the U.S.
Geological Survey (USGS).
ACCAP, USGS, and other groups throughout Alaska are collaborating to
create a technical report of the state of knowledge about climate change
impacts and response, which will be used in writing the Alaska Regional
Chapter of the 2013 National Climate Assessment. For ongoing information
on ACCAP's activities with the National Climate Assessment, please see:

opportunity to learn more about who is involved, the subject and content
areas of the report, the process, the time-line, and how to provide
input.
