April 2020 Alaska Arctic Trip Officially Cancelled

3/12/2020

As expected, the National Science Foundation, PolarTREC, and The Arctic Research Consortium of the United States (ARCUS) have officially canceled my participation in the April Arctic science expedition. The Office of Naval Research and University of Washington Polar Science Center are not behind in officially cancelling too. 

Hoping that the midsummer Greenland Arctic Circle trip will happen.... yet who knows. 

In the meantime, laying low trying not to become part of the problem as an unintentional vector of covid-19. Just moved everything I need for a couple months out of my office and am now set up at home. Thankfully my house has a sunny south facing porch that is blocked from the wind - it may become my favorite new office space.

And for some much needed levity (in case you haven't already seen this on my social media channels) - 
I've been googling Covid-19 too much and sometimes I accidentally type in Corvid as well and have seen so many pics of really cool birds. Thought I would share some of these really cool Corvids. Here are only 16 of the 120 corvid species around the world.

Stay connected to those you love and care about, I think the psychological effects of this pandemic is already causing intense emotional exhaustion for everyone on some level. Love your people - even if it's just through phone calls and video chats. I'm definitely feeling it myself. 

In it for the long haul, until next time,
-Sarah

Love corvids. Thanks for the picture. It's sad that the name for these wonderful birds now means a virus.
