This map tracks climate change related events in the news from across the circumpolar north. You can view events chronologically or by topic, using key terms in the search box.
The map is hosted by the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium (ANTHC) Center for Climate and Health. To receive weekly updates through the e-journal, 'The Northern Climate Observer', visit our website. You can Google us at "Alaska Center for Climate and Health."
Climate change is causing the environment in the north to change very quickly. This project uses time lapse cameras located in northern communities to monitor change over long time periods. Typically the cameras are mounted at sites selected by local partners, and the cameras take one image per day. The images are then compiled into videos that help to evaluate important local topics and environmental indicators, such as weather, seasonal change, infrastructure, vegetation, erosion, ice conditions, water level, and so on. The LEO Community Camera Project is administered by the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium, Center for Climate and Health. This map provides location of cameras, still images of vantage points, links to videos located on the Local Environmental Observer (LEO) Network YouTube Channel, LEO Network Maps, and contact information for local partners.
