When Howling Wolves Greet the Northern Lights

Jan Curtis - USDA/NRCS, Portland, Oregon

(biography)

This webinar will provide an overview of the northern lights (aurora borealis).  You will learn:  Where do they come from?  Where can they be seen?  Can they be predicted?  How high are they?  Can you hear them?  What is the most common color?  Aurora come in various forms and their evolution follow a typical pattern.  Examples of the best northern lights will be shown (taken by Jan over an eight year period from Fairbanks, Alaska).
