Example image 2Toolik Field Station is life on the wildside! The Weather is made up and the season doesn't matter! You'll never be able to guess what the next day will be like. Wildlife of all sorts pass through or make the area their home. Plants of all sorts litter the great country side. No where else will you find such a hodgepodge of life in one place. Just remember to stay away from the wolves! They're not tamed just yet.

Example image 2Our plant phenology program, begun in 2007, monitors the timing of certain developmental stages within the plant community commonly found in moist acidic tussock and dry heath tundra. It is an examination of the development and timing of commonly occurring plant species and how they are affected by a changing climate. Download data from 2007-2017 with the links on the right.

Example image 2Use this guide to learn about the mammals seen at and around TFS. The sighting graphs show (a) the length of the stay for species regularly seen at TFS, (b) the spring arrival and fall departure dates for species migrating past TFS and (c) the sporadic occurrences of species occasionally encountered at TFS.


Weather data has been collected at Toolik Field Station (68 degrees 38'N, 149 degrees 36'W) since June 1988. The weather station located at the field station was originally installed by the Arctic LTER (ecosystems.mbl.edu/arc) and TFS assumed control of the station in 2007. The field station is an ideal location for maintaining long-term weather data, as it is located in a data sparse region and adds a data point along the north-south transect of the Northslope of Alaska, following along the Dalton Highway. There is year round access and a long-term pre-existing dataset. These advantages make it possible to provide quality data - a often difficult achievement in remote northern latitudes in Alaska.
