Social Change and the Environment in Nordic Prehistory: Evidence from Finland and Northern Canada (SCENOP)

该研究项目由纽约州立大学布法罗分校的 PI Ezra Zubrow 负责，是欧洲科学基金会、EUROCORES 计划、BOREAS 下构思的大型国际合作项目的美国部分。 完整的 ESF 项目是来自 4 个国家（包括美国、加拿大和芬兰）的研究人员的合作。 这个特殊项目代表了美国 NSF 对 BOREAS 工作的贡献，通过为芬兰北部 Yli-li 地区和加拿大詹姆斯湾 Wemindji 地区的考古和地理数据创建 GIS 数据库，重点关注北欧史前社会变迁的主题。 通过收集和分析这两个地理不同地区的考古和古环境数据，研究人员将揭示对气候变化的可持续适应性反应问题。

This research project, PI Ezra Zubrow, SUNY Buffalo, is the US portion of a larger international collaboration that was conceived under the European Science Foundation, EUROCORES Programme, BOREAS. The full ESF project is a collaboration of researchers from 4 countries, including the US, Canada, and Finland. This particular project, which represents the US NSF contribution to the BOREAS effort, focuses on the theme of social change in Nordic prehistory through the creation of a GIS database for archaeological and geographic data from the Yli-li area of Northern Finland and the Wemindji area of James Bay, Canada. By collecting and analyzing archaeological and paleoenvironmental data from these two geographically different regions, the investigators will shed light on issues of sustainable adaptive responses to climate change.
