Perceptions and implications of thawing permafrost and climate change in two Inupiaq villages of arctic Alaska

Survey responses of residents of the arctic Inupiaq villages of Anaktuvuk Pass (n=39) and Selawik (n=41), Alaska. The survey elicited local knowledge, perceptions, and speculations about current and future implications of thawing permafrost and other aspects of climate change for ways of life in the...

Human dimensions data were collected and analyzed in conjunction with local thaw depth data as part of an interdisciplinary study of the implications of thawing permafrost and climate change for the social-ecological systems of two communities whose ways of life rely on close interactions with their local environments.
