Dan Weaver, a Ph.D. Candidate at U of T and currently on his third ACE Campaign, has written a series of articles for U of T News about research and life at PEARL:

Reporting from the Arctic: Measuring ozone, tracking satellites, hiking fiords

Reporting from the Arctic: A typical day in Eureka

Reporting from the Arctic: The science behind the mission

Reporting from the Arctic: Advice for surviving winter

Reporting from the Arctic: When fog hits

Western University News posted an article based on an interview with two of their graduate students participating in this year's campaign, Emily McCullough and Shaymila Gamage:

'Eureka moment' provides unique opportunity for students

York University has also posted a short article about their contribution to the campaign. York U Professor Tom McElroy was a co-inventor of the Brewer Ozone Spectrophotometer, an instrument used world-wide to measure and track ozone. He joined the research team with his grad student, Zahra Vaziri.

National media

In November, the Globe and Mail's science journalist, Ivan Semeniuk, visited PEARL with Prof. Jim Drummond (PEARL's Principle Investigator) and Emily McCullough (Western University Ph.D. student and long-time ACE Campaign team member). He wrote a great article about research being conducted at PEARL:

How Canada’s Arctic lab keeps a watchful eye on climate change

The Globe and Mail also posted a video from PEARL, which included an interview with Emily about her research and the lidar at 0PAL:
With a laser blast, scientists shoot for clues to Arctic climate

Social media

There are Twitter updates from the campaign through the @CREATEArcticSci account. You don't need to be part of Twitter, you can visit the feed as a webpage! There are short updates and photo highlights.
