[edit] Television Coverage

3-31-2007 In an IPY introduction story, Dan Pringle appeared on Fairbanks local WebCenter11 News. The Science Cafe series received good exposure, including advertising of the Richter-Menge/ Elder presentation, April 16 at Alaska Coffee Roasters. Story from the WebCenter11 website here:IPY-Making Polar Research Interesting.

1-16-2007 Derek got a quick sound bite on the Channel 13 evening news (KXD-TV Fairbanks) to explain our network. The story was really about Hajo Eicken's Science for Alaska lecture on the International Polar Year.

[edit] Written Press Coverage

May-June 2007 Derek Mueller featured on the BBC looking for an island of ice. This included an online forum for the public to direct questions to him.

3-20-2007 Travis Booms and Phil the Gyrfalcon are pictured in conjunction with an article on Ice Alaska in the Sun Star.
