Measuring Tundra Productivity and Vegetation Structure Using Satellite Imagery
Principal Investigator: O'Brien, Daniel
Licensed Year(s): 2000
Summary: An understanding of arctic vegetation structure, composition and productivity is critical to climate change monitoring, wildlife management and sustainable resource management. Remote sensing could prove to be an effective tool for studies in the arctic because the region is large and hard to reach. Satellite imagery will be used to estimate productivity of the land and this will be compared to ...

Gwich'in Environmental Knowledge Project (GEKP)
Principal Investigator: Raygorodetsky, Gleb
Licensed Year(s): 1996 1995
Summary: The project proposes to collect, organize, and present, in report form, traditional environmental knowledge in the Gwich'in Settlement Area (GSA). This information would give the Gwich'in and other resource managers a better "picture" of the region based on the perspective of the people who have lived there for generations. It also provides a basis for incorporating local environmental knowledge...
