      <image:title>Research News - Third edition of “Wildlife of the Australian Snow Country” release by Ken Green and William Osborne - Field Guide to Wildlife of the Australian Snow Country by Ken Green and William Osborne</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is a comprehensive guide to Australia’s snow country fauna and environment. Now completely updated to include the many changes that have occurred to the environment since the first edition was released in 1994. This edition includes exploring the inter-relationships between snow cover and wildlife as well as detailed descriptions of the animal species, including their distribution, breeding, food and habitats.  Updates include: the visible impacts of climate change on animal species and habitats, the decline of high mountain frogs due to the chytrid fungus and loss of snow gums due to wood-boring beetles. This is an indispensable guide for professionals and amateur naturalists. Get your copy for $50 at all good bookshops, some National Parks and outdoor shops and Booktopia.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Research News - New research: Bogong moths - Each year, Bogong moths (Agrotis infusa) migrate up to 1,000 km to reach cool, alpine caves they haven’t never visited before, where they aestivate over the summer. A new study by researchers, including AIAS member Ken Green, has revealed that these moths rely on the night sky as a compass, using stars to navigate with remarkable precision. Even when their magnetic sense was disabled, the Bogong moths still oriented themselves in the correct migratory direction under natural night skies. By tracking brain activity, researchers discovered that specific visual neurons responded to the rotation of the stars, helping the moths stay on course. This discovery reveals the remarkable navigational abilities of Bogong moths as they traverse the Australian Alps.</image:title>

      <image:title>Research News - Vale Distinguished Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick AM 12/10/1946 – 21/10/2024 - The Australian alpine research community is deeply saddened by the loss of Jamie Kirkpatrick, who passed away peacefully on the 21st of October 2024. Jamie had just recently presented his research at the 2024 AIAS meeting in Hobart, just a few weeks prior to his passing. He gave a talk “Predicting spatial variation in the upper limit of trees on the alpine mountains of lutruwita (Tasmania)”. Jamie also just launched three books on his 78th birthday on the 12th of October in the company of many past students, colleagues friends and family; Ecology Underfoot, Phantasms and the Family and The Rest of Nature, Place and People in the Plague Years.</image:title>

      <image:caption>On 7 August 2026, the anemometer and site camera were completely coated in rime ice, which forms when the wind blows super cooled moist air onto something that is even colder, and so it freezes on. This is very hard ice, and colder than 0°C! It stopped the camera’s antennas from sending signals. To be able to open the camera box to reset the camera and get the anemometer spinning again, required Susanna to knock off the ice with her ski pole!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Newsletters - Australian Institute of Alpine Studies Newsletter 03 - One of the drought net shelters at Ruined Castle, showing about 39cm of snow - this is peak season, and usually at this time of year there would be over 1m of snow at this site! Another drought net shelter is in the distance.</image:title>

      <image:title>Newsletters - Australian Institute of Alpine Studies Newsletter 03 - Beneath a drought‑net shelter at Ruined Castle, an Odyssey Xtreem sensor and logger (the blue unit) records soil moisture and temperature every 10 cm, down to 40 cm. Susanna uses a hand‑held theta‑probe and HH2 logger to take paired readings beside the Odyssey unit, allowing comparison between the two methods. These measurements are later matched with gravimetric samples to calculate percentage soil water.</image:title>

      <image:title>Newsletters - Australian Institute of Alpine Studies Newsletter 03 - Schlinks Pass - NSW</image:title>
      <image:caption>A DroughtNet shelter at the Schlinks Pass AMRF site on 18 August, where snow was unusually shallow for the time of year. As well as preventing additional snow falling onto the plot, the DroughtNet shelter actually creates slightly warmer conditions underneath which aides in melting the snow. Note the bank of deeper snow at the low (right hand) side of the shelter. This has piled up from sliding off the top of the shelter.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Newsletters - Australian Institute of Alpine Studies Newsletter 03 - Ken Green holds the simple snow-density instrument, this is indicating that the snow is approximately 43% water - so very dense and wet snow. This value is compared with a measure of snow water equivalence (SWE), measured with the Federal Snow Corer (the blue tube on the left), providing a fuller picture of snowpack condition and melt progression.</image:title>

      <image:title>Newsletters - Australian Institute of Alpine Studies Newsletter 01 - Since joining the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network (TERN) community, AMRF has expanded its capacity to connect and support Australia’s alpine research community. This integration has made it possible for the AMRF to provide direct support to the AIAS, including the delivery of this new quarterly newsletter, to help connect researchers, students, and land managers working in alpine and subalpine ecosystems.</image:title>

      <image:title>Newsletters - Australian Institute of Alpine Studies Newsletter 01 - Hobart Symposia to celebrate Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick</image:title>
      <image:caption>A symposium was recently held at the University of Tasmania to honour Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick. The event drew around 150 registrations and featured a diverse range of speakers sharing alpine research and reflecting on Jamie’s many contributions to projects and the field of alpine science. Though not a typical symposium, many talks were filled with humour and warmth, celebrating both the life and lasting legacy of Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick.
