Inuit Knowledge of Climate and Climate Change in the Eastern Canadian Arctic

巴里，福克斯-9906740这个项目解决的问题：因纽特人知道什么关于气候和气候变化，他们如何构建这种知识？ 如何将因努伊特人的气候知识和科学研究结合起来，以进一步了解北极气候过程以及变化对北极环境和人类住区的潜在影响？ 一个多方法的方法，使用内容分析，图表与地图覆盖，开放式访谈，和参与者的观察，将被用来记录因纽特人的气候知识。 科学记录和因纽特人的证词将与加拿大东部北极地区的气候和冰异常相匹配。 四个定居点（和当地狩猎营地）的长老和猎人将与共同PI合作，解释因纽特人的气候知识。 收集到的信息将用于开发一个模型，其中包括数据共享和知识传播的适当方法。

Barry, FoxOPP-9906740This project addresses the questions: What do the Inuit know about climate and climate change and how do they construct this knowledge? How can Inuit climate knowledge and scientific research be integrated to further understand Arctic climate processes and the potential impacts of change on the Arctic environment and human settlements? A multi-method approach, using content analysis, charting with map overlays, open-ended interviews, and participant observation, will be used to document Inuit climate knowledge. Scientific record and Inuit testimony will be matched regarding climate and ice anomalies in the Eastern Canadian Arctic. Elders and hunters at four settlements (and local hunting camps) will work with the co-PI to interpret Inuit climate knowledge. Information collected will be used to develop a model that includes appropriate methods for data sharing and knowledge dissemination.
