Climate and landscape play a large part in successful large-game hunting across ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ, and changes have challenged common hunting practices.

Todd Brinkman, a wildlife ecology professor with the University of ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ Fairbanks Institute of Arctic Biology, will discuss those changes in deer, moose, caribou and whale hunting systems for the last installment of the 2015 Science for ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ Lecture Series. It will be Tuesday, Feb. 24 at 7 p.m. in the Gold Room at the Westmark Fairbanks Hotel.

The lecture series is free and open to the public. This year, the ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æ Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research again joins the Geophysical Institute as a sponsor. The series, which began in the early 1990s, brings current scientific research to ÐÓ°ÉÔ­°æns.
