Summary: | As part of the overall goals of Pacific Marine Arctic Regional Synthesis (PacMARS) and specifically addressing the research theme "Subsistence Lifestyles in Times of Climate Change", the Pacific Marine Arctic Regional Synthesis (PacMARS) team conducted five regional Alaskan community meetings on St. Lawrence Island, and in Barrow, Kotzebue and Nome. The meetings provided a forum for feedback on research needs as they are perceived by local communities as well as for ecological insights from subsistence hunters specifically, and local residents in general.
