Community engagement and emergency preparedness can mitigate exposure to volcanic events. Sign at Nikiski Fire Department on March 28, 2009. Ash fall up to a millimeter thick from Redoubt Volcano occurred twice during the 2009 eruption on this area. AVO photo.

Biologists clip the tip of one of the ventral fins of a sheefish that is in a cradle in the Selawik River, Alaska. This study was collecting genetic samples to help find impacts of fine sediment on sheefish. The results were no impacts due to low amounts of sediments present.
