DEAR SmITh AlumnA,

This summer, join ABC News veteran Sam Donaldson and Tom Litwin, director of the Clark Science Center at Smith College, aboard the expedition ship Kapitan Khlebnikov for a voyage into the Russian Arctic—one of the places where the consequences of rapid temperature change are especially evident. For those curious about the possible effects of global warming on the future of our planet, this symposium provides a multifaceted introduction to this complex issue. For those who simply wish to learn more, both intellectually and through hands-on experience, the Arctic is the place to be.

Mr. Donaldson will moderate lively debates and panel discussions with top scientists and climate experts including Professor Litwin; Ross MacPhee, curator of vertebrate zoology at the American Museum of Natural History; Aron Crowell, director of the Smithsonian’s Arctic Studies Center in Alaska; and Jim McCarthy, professor of biological oceanography and former director of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard.

The Kapitan Khlebnikov is a polar-class icebreaker that allows intrepid passengers to access remote corners of the globe. From its deck, board helicopters to view icy landscapes that may very well disappear. Sail the famed Bering Strait between Russia and the U.S., and cruise the Siberian coast to cross the Arctic Circle. Meet the Chukchi and other Arctic peoples—from artisans to reindeer herders—in their native landscapes, from the heart of the tundra to the sweeping seas. Discover the natural wonders of this awe-inspiring region, including 500-year-old skeletons of giant bowhead whales at Whalebone Alley; an enormous variety of bird life, from the

crested auklets of the Chukchi Peninsula to the nesting cormorants of Kolyuchin Island; and Wrangel Island’s Pacific walrus population, one of the largest in the world.

I hope you will join us and our cosponsors—Smithsonian, American Museum of Natural History, California Academy of Sciences, Columbia University, Harvard Museum of Natural History, and The Commonwealth Club—to explore the fascinating living laboratory of Russia’s Far North.

Sincerely,

Carrie Brown, Ed.M. ’82Executive DirectorAlumnae Association of Smith College

W h at t o E x p E c t As is true for all polar expeditions, weather and ice conditions will affect the itinerary, and travelers must be able to take in stride the inevitable adjustments that occur on this type of adventure. Staff will assist participants in boarding helicopters and Zodiacs, and the staff physician will be available on shore excursions as well as aboard the ship. During the July 2007 global warming symposium, daily temperatures were generally in the high 40s to mid 50s °F; many days were sunny, some were foggy or overcast. All participants should be in good health and capable of walking unassisted over terrain that is often steep and rough. By forwarding the deposit for passage, the passenger certifies that he/she does not have any physical or other condition of disability that would create a hazard for him/herself or other passengers.

c h u ko t k a p E n i n s u l aSaturday–Sunday, July 11–12 Presentations about the wildlife, geology, glaciology, and history of Russia’s Far North provide background for shore adventures on the remote, rugged Chukotka Peninsula, a naturalist’s paradise where high-latitude plants such as arctic poppies and saxifrages are in bloom. Explore the coast and nearby islands, home to myriad nesting seabirds, including least and crested auklets, tufted and horned puffins, and guillemots. At ancient cultural sites, examine ceremonial grounds, learning about the early inhabitants of the Russian Arctic. on yttygran Island, walk among the 500-year-

old skeletons of giant bowhead whales at Whalebone

Alley, a sacred place for early native whalers. kapitan khlEbnikov (2b,2l,2d)

STuDY lEADERS

t o m l i t W i n , director of smith college’s clark science center, is currently working on thin ice: an Exploration of the bering sea in the

age of climate change, an educational project that is part of the united nations’ international polar year observance.

“In 2001 a new century began, as did an important transition in our thinking about climate change. We launched the Harriman Expedition Retraced, exploring the Alaska coast, Bering Sea, and Chukotka Peninsula to assess 100 years of change since E.H. Harriman’s 1899 expedition. Looking to the past, we saw that many observations could be explained by local and regional actions. But an uncertainty, an uneasiness, lingered—that a larger force was at play, namely, climate change. “Dramatic confirmation of a warming planet came with the United Nations’ report Climate Change 2001. Today climate change is a fact, and the debate has moved to the uncertainties of mitigation and adaptation. our current project, Thin Ice, has taken us on icebreaker research missions and into the Native subsistence communities where elders struggle to lead in a world of diminishing ice, a world millennia-old cultures have never known. Will the walrus, ice seal, bowhead whale, and polar bear continue to exist as keystone species in this ecosystem? Will their numbers be great enough to support traditional cultures? on this voyage we are participating in a ‘new age of exploration,’ at the interface of global societal forces and Arctic ecosystems.”

a r o n c r o W E l l is the alaska director for the arctic studies center, national museum of natural history, smithsonian institution.

“In the Arctic, global warming is unfolding at hyperspeed. This means not only a fast-disappearing polar ice pack but a multitude of other changes as well, from the timing of animal

migrations to declining seal, walrus, and polar bear populations, melting permafrost, and eroding coastlines. For indigenous peoples, a warming climate means unpredictable hunting and fishing, dangerous travels on the ice, and coastal villages that are being swallowed by the sea. As High Arctic regions are unlocked from permanent ice, corporations and governments rush in to stake resource claims and develop circumpolar shipping. “In my work as an anthropologist and archaeologist, I have focused on the unique cultural traditions, indigenous technologies, and social developments that have allowed human societies to survive and thrive in the Far North. over the last 12,000 years, Arctic peoples have responded with great resilience to recurring and sometimes dramatic changes in the climate and environment. We will see evidence of this journey through time as we visit

such sites as Whalebone Alley and Wrangel Island and as we meet contemporary Siberian residents of the region. As the climate shifts yet again, greatly accelerated by global carbon pollution, the challenge to northern peoples is perhaps greater than it has ever been before.”

r o s s m a c p h E E is former chairman of the department of mammalogy, american museum of natural history, where he has been a curator since 1988.

dr. macphee’s wife, clare flemming, an associate in the division of vertebrate zoology/mammalogy at the museum, will also join us on this adventure.

“When people ask, What is the point of going somewhere as remote and hard to get to as Wrangel Island?, for me the answer is clear. Wrangel Island, we believe, was the locus of the woolly mammoth’s last stand. Mammoths were living there at least as recently as 3,700 years ago—effectively yesterday, in my line of work. Finding such young material greatly enhances the possibility of obtaining high-quality, abundant DNA from the bones and teeth that litter the tundra. My colleagues and I are currently attempting to sequence the entire functional genome of the woolly mammoth—in other words, everything that genetically made a mammoth a mammoth—and specimens like those from Wrangel and adjacent parts of Arctic Siberia will make this possible.

“The fact that mammoths and other large Eurasian mammals are no longer with us raises obvious questions: Did they disappear because of dramatic climate change? or was their demise due to overhunting by humans? or were other, less obvious, factors in play? The mystery of ice age extinctions continues to excite the imagination of scientists and lay people alike, and research into this area may help us anticipate and deal with future losses as well.”

J a m E s m cc a r t h y, alexander agassiz professor of biological oceanography at harvard, is president of the american association for the

advancement of science and was a lead author on the arctic climate impact assessment. he will be joined by his wife, sue mccarthy, science editor, university administrator, and passionate about arctic wildflowers.

“Wrangel Island lies at the confluence of the Chukchi and East Siberian Seas, a very important region for walruses and polar bears. Walruses feed primarily on mollusks on the ocean floor shallower than a few hundred feet, and they stay close to either coasts or sea ice so that they can haul-out and rest while digesting a meal. Summer sea ice allows walruses to feed far from land, and as ice area shrinks during summer months, islands like Wrangel take on increasing importance for these animals. “Wrangel Island is also a particularly suitable location for polar bear dens. In late summer/early autumn female bears seek out depressions on the hill slopes of the island, where they create dens when snow comes. In these dens the females give birth and nurse their cubs until they leave the den with her in spring. “While sea ice extends the feeding range for walruses, it largely defines the feeding habitat for polar bears, which hunt their most preferred prey, the ringed seal, at the breathing holes that the seals create and maintain in sea ice. over the past few decades this area of the Arctic has experienced the largest changes in summer sea ice extent. Projections of likely future climate change for this region have important implications for the survival of both walruses and polar bears.”

ExpEDITIOn TEAm

an experienced and enthusiastic team of geologists, naturalists, ornithologists, historians, and marine biologists is an integral part of the global Warming & climate change symposium. they are experienced in—and enjoy—fielding questions, offering informal briefings, and engaging in discussions on everything from geography, geology, and environmental concerns to ornithology, marine biology, and the history of polar exploration. they broaden our understanding of marine ecosystems, bring to life the fascinating history of the places we visit, and interpret what we encounter during excursions.

Kapitan KhlebniKov

The Kapitan Khlebnikov was built in Finland in 1981, originally with the mission of keeping ice-bound shipping lanes open for other vessels. Not simply an ice-reinforced ship, the powerful 108-passenger, polar-class icebreaker has transported adventurous travelers to extremely remote reaches of the globe since 1992. Its interior provides comfortable passenger facilities, with accommodations in 52 first-class outside cabins and suites. Two helicopters assist with navigation and beach landings, and a fleet of sturdy Zodiacs is available for leisurely cruising of the Arctic waters and for shore excursions. There is an elevator for easy movement between decks, and a small medical clinic. All accommodations have windows that can be opened, as well as adjustable vents to control the flow of air inside the cabin. Floors are carpeted and there is ample wardrobe and drawer space. En suite bathrooms include a shower. The ship has two dining rooms with unassigned seating, a small library, laundry service, bar, lecture room, sauna, swimming pool, and exercise room. The atmosphere aboard the Kapitan Khlebnikov is relaxed and informal. Maritime regulations and weather conditions permitting, the bridge is open for visits, and passengers are encouraged to take advantage of this excellent venue for keeping a look out for wildlife and observing the ship’s operations. Dress is casual, as befits an expedition cruise.
