Presentation transcript:

Science for decision-making in the Eastern Arctic Trevor Bell, leader Philippe LeBlanc, coordinator

One of 18 Networks of Centres of Excellence (NCE) jointly funded by the 3 research councils of Canada Funded for 7 years ( ) Renewal for another 7 years ( )? $6.4 Million from NCE per year (85% research) $12-30 Million cash & in-kind contributions from partners per year

Network of scientists and students (natural, health and social sciences) Studying the impacts of climate change and globalization in the coastal Canadian Arctic Producing knowledge to help northerners prepare for future challenges and opportunities

Network of scientists and students (natural, health and social sciences) Studying the impacts of climate change and globalization in the coastal Canadian Arctic Producing knowledge to help northerners prepare for future challenges and opportunities

Instability of coastal landscapes in Arctic communities and regions Public Health and Safety Safe and Sustainable Communities Trevor Bell and Don Forbes Map hazards and planning constraints on community lands Identify potential threats to existing infrastructure Inform climate change adaptation planning in communities

Climate change and food security in regional Inuit centers Public Health and Safety Food Security James Ford Document and describe the nature of food insecurity Examine the pathways through which climate change affects food insecurity Identify opportunities and priorities for adaptation intervention in the context of rapid current and future change

Arctic Sea Ice Public Health and Safety Safety in Transportation David Barber Information about sea ice extent, type, and trends Impacts on access to resources, extraction and transportation

Industrial development and Arctic communities: Environmental and social change Socio-Economic Development Mining Arn Keeling Explore past and present examples of development-induced change Understand the issues at stake for communities facing development

Climate change and commercial shipping development in the Arctic Socio-Economic Development Shipping Frederic Lasserre Information on commercial shipping to support policy-making on ship traffic

Cape Bounty Arctic Watershed Observatory, Melville Island Socio-Economic Development Environmental protection Scott Lamoureux and Melissa Lafrenière Information on short and long term impacts of climate change on watersheds Inform environmental protection plans for future land use and development

Impact of climate change on the life of the Arctic Ocean floor Resource Management Marine Conservation Philippe Archambault Identify biodiversity “hotspots” on Arctic seafloor Inform future marine conservation area planning

Impacts of Global Warming on Arctic marine mammals Resource Management Marine and Terrestrial Wildlife Management Steven Ferguson Use an integrated ecosystem-based approach to study the effects of climate warming on Arctic marine mammals Develop adaptive conservation and management programs as their abundance and distribution change in a warming Arctic

Inuit Social Values (Qaujimajatuqangit) and the Transformation of High School Education in Nunavut Culture and Lifestyle Education Fiona Walton Investigate how Inuit educational leaders effectively catalyze change and engage students and parents to improve educational success Contribute to Inuit educational policy in Canada

The emerging Arctic security environment Culture and Lifestyle Sovereignty and Security Rob Huebert What is Arctic security? What should policy makers anticipate that the circumpolar world will look like in the future, given the various forces that are now transforming this region? What are these forces and how are they interacting? How do we measure the processes of conflict and cooperation?
