Seismologist visits Southeast in wake of large earthquake
Seismologist Natalia Ruppert prepares to fly from Ketchikan to Thorne Bay in a DeHavilland Beaver floatplane. The Fairbanks seismologist traveled to small communities in Southeast Alaska in response to a large earthquake in the area a few weeks prior.

CRAIG — In this cozy Southeast Alaska community that smells of red cedar chips used to power a boiler that heats both the school and the pool, seismologist Natalia Ruppert responded to an hour of questions from more than 150 people who gathered in the auditorium of the Craig High School.

Science for Alaska 2013
Mark your calendars for Science for Alaska 2013! Our 21st year of the popular lecture series will experience some changes. Lectures will take place in Schaible Auditorium on the UAF campus and occur on Saturdays throughout January. We're hoping the smaller space and the coffee to follow each of the lectures will lead to a more intimate exchange between our line-up of lecturers and the community.
Apache Alaska Corporation shares Cook Inlet 3-D seismic data with GI, DGGS
Apache Alaska Corporation is sharing its Cook Inlet 3-D seismic data with the Alaska Department of Natural Resources, Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) and the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) to better identify seismic hazards in Southcentral Alaska.
UAF’s Geophysical Institute has begun the process of accepting and processing the data and will begin modeling efforts to help geologists at UAF and DGGS better identify seismic hazards in the area.
