On Wednesday, November 12, 2025, from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm MT, join the NSF NCAR Explorer Series for a lecture. The talk is entitled "Antarctic ecosystems: From microscopic plants to penguins."
In this lecture, Kristen Krumhardt and Alice DuVivier, both Project Scientists in the Climate and Global Dynamics Laboratory (CGD) at NSF NCAR, will explore how Earth System Models (ESMs) are used to investigate polar ecosystem change. They will also discuss possible implications for people and animals in these regions and policy considerations to help protect vulnerable ecosystems.
This is a hybrid event. In-person participants can join at the NSF NCAR Mesa Laboratory at 1850 Table Mesa Dr, Boulder, CO 80305, USA, in the Main Seminar Room. Virtual participants can
watch the live public broadcast or
register to reserve a seat; the Slido interface enables virtual participants to ask questions. This is a free public event recommended for ages 12-plus.
