This tower marks the UAF booth in the AGU exhibit hall.

The schedule for UAF presentations and posters at the AGU Fall Meeting 2022 is listed below. All times are shown in Central Standard Time.

Email Heather McFarland at hrmcfarland@alaska.edu (International Arctic Research Center) or Rod Boyce, rcboyce@alaska.edu (Geophysical Institute) for more information. Check the online AGU program for the most up-to-date version of the schedule.

A few things to know about AGU 2022:

  • Use the UAF exhibit booth #2137 to connect with collaborators, share your research with visitors, and more.
  • Grab a snack in the Exhibit Hall from 4-5 p.m. and join us for Deans’ and Directors’ Hour at the UAF booth, Monday-Wednesday.
  • Follow UAF on Twitter or Facebook for updates during the meeting. Check out the hashtag #UAFxAGU to see how UAF is participating in AGU 2022.


Visit the UAF booth to meet researchers, students and staff from the Alaska Satellite Facility, Geophysical Institute, International Arctic Research Center, Institute of Northern Engineering, Center for One Health Research, and more.
