ABSTRACT OPP-9726510 OPP-9726417 OGILVIE, ASTRID ROGERS, JEFFREY UNIVERSITY OFCOLORADO OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY The project will examine the relationship between changing climatic conditions in the vicinity of Iceland and the abundance of Atlantic cod for the past 1000 years. The combination of climate and fisheries records will be used to determine possible impacts of climate-induced changes in cod fisheries on human populations. Of particular importance will be an examination of the societal response to climate change and fisheries abundance during two of the most dramatic climate events to occur in the North Atlantic region during recorded history, the "Little Ice Age" and the "Medieval Warm Period". The research will involve an interdisciplinary approach in which physical, climate, historical, and sociological evidence is gathered to examine effects of significant changes in the environment on human populations that depend on resources controlled in part by climate-driven systems. Therefore, the project will make a significant contribution to the determination of the human dimensions of global change in the North Atlantic during two periods of significant climate fluctuations.

OGILVIE, ASTRID ROGERS， JEFFREY科罗拉多大学俄亥俄州立大学该项目将研究过去1000年来冰岛附近气候条件变化与大西洋鳕鱼丰度之间的关系。气候和渔业记录的结合将用于确定气候引起的鳕鱼渔业变化对人口的可能影响。特别重要的是，在有记录以来北大西洋地区发生的两次最剧烈的气候事件——“小冰河期”和“中世纪温暖期”——期间，对气候变化和渔业丰富程度的社会反应进行审查。这项研究将采用跨学科的方法，收集物理、气候、历史和社会学证据，以研究环境的重大变化对部分依赖气候驱动系统控制的资源的人口的影响。因此，该项目将对确定北大西洋在两个重大气候波动时期的全球变化对人类的影响作出重大贡献。
