Description:
Abstract:
The dataset contains a coded Excel spreadsheet of local and traditional knowledge interview questions and responses, and a results narrative collected from eleven people interviewed in St. Paul Island. The topics focused on during the interviews were identified from the BSIERP research plan, including customary and traditional practices, fisheries, environmental quality, seasonal cycles, northern fur seals, seabirds, halibut, crab, ocean and environmental conditions, sea ice conditions, and general human impacts.
Purpose:
The Bering Sea Integrated Ecosystem Research Project (BSIERP, bsierp.nprb.org) is a five-year project seeking to understand how climate change is affecting the Bering Sea and the people who live on its shores and depend on its resources. The Local and Traditional Knowledge (LTK) component of BSIERP involved residents in five Bering Sea communities: Akutan, Emmonak, St. Paul Island, Savoonga, and Togiak. In each community, the effects of climate change being experienced first hand, and traditional knowledge about these changes was gathered through harvest surveys and monitoring, and through interviews with hunters, fishers, and elders. The following is from LTK interviews held in St. Pau Islandl in 2009 and 2010.
Supplemental_Information:
There are also three DVDs dating 11/14/10, 12/03/10, and 12/10/10 with audio and video recordings of some of the interviews that took place.
