INTRODUCTION TO SOCIAL FEEDBACKS SESSION (and a plug for PIA…) Stewart J.

Reasons for concern about projected climate change impacts (IPCC, (2001)WGII Summary for Policymakers)

ImpactContinued reliance on subsistence activities Greater reliance on wage economy & economic development Greater flooding-- Muddy road conditions0- Insulation of buildings++ Easier water delivery0+ Less time waiting out cold conditions++ Outdoor meat storage-- Uncomfortably hot in summer-- Increased summer insects-- Shorter winter road season00 Longer water shipping season0+ Mode of transport00 Infrastructure of camps-0 Location of camps-0 Changes in wildlife habitat-0 Increased sediment loading-- Thinner ice-- Greater snowfall0- Variability in timing & consistency of break-up & freeze-up -- Longer ice free season0+ Shoreline erosion & lowland flooding-- Greater variability in decisions/perceptions-0 Impacts of climatic change on future scenarios for Aklavik (Aharonian, 1994; in MBIS Interim Report #2)

How to be more integrative…? Create opportunities for ‘shared learning’ –Recognize and support stakeholders’ regional and global roles –Stakeholders must be able to see themselves in the research –Contribute to framing the research agenda Participatory Integrative Assessment (PIA) –This is a research model, not just project administration

Panel on Social Feedbacks Research within Interdisciplinary Studies in the Arctic How to address linkages between climate change and future development of Arctic communities and regions? How to integrate various forms of knowledge together…? How to cross the scales between global forces and local context?
