Summary: | The INTERACT Practical Field Guide contains information on best practices and safety aspects in relation to fieldwork in the Arctic. Its eight chapters address general safety guidelines; communication; safety during transport and in the field; weather, terrain and wildlife, codes of conduct; local and traditional knowledge; and emergency preparedness and supplements the INTERACT Fieldwork Planning Handbook. The book has been developed and written by early career scientists, station managers and experienced safety professionals, thus reflecting the views of both new explorers and those with years of experience. We therefore hope that the book can be an inspirational source for early career and more senior scientists providing in-depth knowledge and handy tips for fieldwork planning in the Arctic and other cold regions of the world. We advise thoroughly reading through the INTERACT Practical Field Guide before going into the field. This book can then be used as a handy guide to the main aspects relevant while in the field, particularly safety issues. In addition, you can also use the index for a fast search of all topics covered. |
