Interactions of natural and social systems with climate change, globalization, and infrastructure development in the Arctic
This project brings together earth system scientists, engineers, ecologists, and anthropologists to document and explain changes in ecosystems and their effects on the plants, animals, indigenous peoples, and the built environment of the Arctic. It emphasizes interactions between these elements to help understand, inform, and plan for changes to come. Janice Ledgerwood and her students are working with the science team to tell the researchers’ stories through comics arts and animation. The resulting artworks will be shared with diverse audiences both in the US and Norway.
