Human Dimensions of the Arctic System (HARC) | Online Workshops 2002
Online Workshop
The HARC Science Management Office (SMO) sponsored two online workshops in April 2002. These online workshops were designed to help develop project-level ideas incorporating HARC research within new and emerging initiatives in the Arctic System Science (ARCSS) Program at the National Science Foundation. The workshop discussions help generate ideas leading to research proposals, establishing human dimensions as an integral component of each theme.

"Although climate change is often discussed in
terms of gradual trends in temperature and precipitation, both indigenous
knowledge and ice-core records paint a picture of more dramatically variable
weather conditions"
