The Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy will host a statewide webinar on Tuesday, Dec. 6 at 10 a.m.

Researchers from the University of Alaska Fairbanks and the Alaska SeaLife Center are developing a citizen-science initiative to collect information on the marine ecosystems of the Chukchi and Bering seas.

The information collected will be publicly available and useful in the development of ecosystem-based fisheries management in Alaska.
