Ken Tape is a lifelong Alaskan wilderness and science photographer, whose artistic interests are concentrated on landscape, aurora, and adventure photography. His passion for the outdoors and the beauty of the Arctic has motivated him to seek out and record the timeless moments of remote Arctic locations. Dog-mushing, boating, and hiking represent his primary subjects for adventure photography.

Ken holds bachelors and masters degrees in geology, and he is currently pursuing a PhD in biology in Fairbanks. Masters and dissertation work utilize the power of repeating old photographs to discern changes in vegetation and glaciers in response to climate change. He is working on a book called "Climate Warming and the Changing Arctic Landscape: Repeat Photography of Shrubs, Trees, Glaciers, and Permafrost" (University of Alaska Press). His photos and scientific work have been featured in numerous calendars and journals, scientific and otherwise, including the Alaska Coastal Calendar, the Alaska Weather Calendar, Nature, Audubon, Scientific American, Science, Popular Mechanics, and Mushing Magazine. The work was also featured in Alan Alda's "Scientific American Frontiers," and in Charles Wolforth's recent book "The Whale and the Supercomputer: On the Northern Front of Climactic Change."
