Research on coastal change in the north pacific has increased rapidly in recent years, making it challenging to track existing projects, understand their cumulative insights, gauge remaining research gaps, and prioritize future work. The goals of this project were to foster better coordination about coastal change studies, help practitioners and scholars learn from one another, identify existing research gaps, make it more transparent and easily accessible to stakeholders in the region, and provide a framework for better understanding how projects interact. We identified current coastal change projects in the region by conducting an extensive internet search utilizing existing databases and online resources and sending out requests for information to stakeholders from a diverse range of university, state, federal, tribal and local institutions. This webinar will detail the results of this research.
Available online or in-person in 407 IARC/Akasofu building on the UAF campus.
