This course introduces the Arctic through an examination of the challenges faced by northern peoples. Emphasis is placed on the causes and consequences of global environmental change, and interactions with ecological processes and challenges for the human environment. Inuit perspectives of ecological knowledge will enhance discussions on planning and development in a warming future. Principles of ecosystem management and emergent challenges for a sustainable future will also be addressed.
