👰🏻Not only in the #Arctic, but in #Vienna too, people are seeking the perfect spot for wedding pics, using props like a Fiaker to curate an“authentic”shot.Can’t help but wonder how much social media shapes imaginaries of places and how much services adapt to fit those imaginaries

Planting trees 🌲🌳 is not the solution to tackle #climate change in high latitudes of the #Arctic. Very interesting article by High North News based on Aagard Kristensen & colleagues research.

Miten Lapista ja Etelä-Suomestakin pääsee Atlantille, jos Itämeri ois blokattu? Aika huonosti mauste, koska Lapin infra ei ole niin hyvässä kunnossa, kuin pitäisi. Lue juttuni: yle.fi/a/74-20124693 #huoltovarmuus #turvallisuus #maanpuolustus #infra #tiet #rautatiet #huolto

To avoid bankruptcy, the troubled battery manufacturer Northvolt is filing for reorganization and #bankruptcy protection in the US, in a so-called Chapter 11 process. #Chapter11 #battery #TheGreenWave #northsweden #arctic highnorthnews.com/en/northvolt-b…

At the Austrian Polar Research Institute annual general meeting in Graz, #InfraNorth researchers Ria Adams, Alexandra Meyer and Susanna Gartler shared updates from Peter Schweitzer’s working group. We also enjoyed Andreas Trügler’s insights on Greenland’s Sermilik Research Station! #ArcticResearch

Haen tutkijatohtoria ajalle 1.3.2025–30.6.2026 tekemään kanssani erityisesti narratiivista analyysiä siitä, mitä #länsi ja #länsimaat oikein ovat ja tekevät. Aineistona on Ukrainan sotaa käsittelevät uutiset (HS, IL, Yle). Hakudedis 18.12. Saa levittää! tuni.rekrytointi.com/paikat/?o=A_A&…

Feeling the snow crunching under my feet as I walk through #Kiruna to the Nordic Conference of Rural Reseach at Aurora. I love visiting this place time and time again, especially to see the city’s transformation. Some of the old wooden houses were relocated since summer🏗️

🔍🏗️Curious whether #Scandic Kiruna’s rates will drop or keep climbing once the new #Elite Hotel Frost opens (expected June 2025). Hotel prices in #Kiruna are soaring, driven by demand from workers, tourists, visitors, researchers and other professionals alike. 📈

🚍Tested the local bus in #Kiruna to the conference venue: 7-min drive or 40min walk was 29 min by bus. Routes try to cover a wider area for accessibility, but it’s not the most efficient mode to commute in #Arctic towns.🔍Spot the truck bringing piles of snow to the snow-dump🚛

Gotta love PostNord Sverige for having two mailboxes to choose from 🎅🏼📮 Region Norrbotten
