A personal perspective at one of our field sites yesterday. It's pretty low quality video, but all those specks floating around and the ones that are all over my legs that you can't see are mosquitos. This is lazy blogging.
It's been really dry here, dry enough to cause surface flow and ponded water at our water tracks to disappear almost entirely. There is also a fire burning 50 miles to the west of Toolik Field Station, which I'm told is typical for this time of year in Fairbanks, but not this far north.
