About this listen

In this episode, Megan takes Bailey north (way north) to explore adventures in soil and permafrost research across Alaska and Canada. Forget fishing trips - this is the real Alaskan experience: dodging clouds of mosquitoes, digging soil pits with bread knives, and polar bear 'drive-bys' (in helicopters). From collaborations with international researchers and partnerships with Alaska Native villages, Megan shares what it’s really like to do soil science in remote areas, from the Y-K Delta to the Hudson Bay Lowlands. You'll get the lowdown on Arctic field work and why you should care about frozen ground — even if it's not beneath your feet.

Let’s dig in!
