Making sense of contaminants: a case study of Arviat, Nunavut / Martina Tyrrell.

Title: Making sense of contaminants: a case study of Arviat, Nunavut / Martina Tyrrell.
Author(s): Tyrrell, Martina.
Date: 2006.
In: Arctic. (2006.), Vol. 59(4) (2006)
Abstract: Presents case study of Inuit community of Arviat on north-west coast of Hudson Bay, to illustrate varied ways that Inuit think about and react to contaminants in food. Juxtaposes global cause and effect (as understood by scientific community) and local causes and effects of contamination as understood by Inuit. Notes that Inuit are incorporating contaminant research into hunting practice and earning money by collecting tissue samples and hosting southern researchers.
Notes:

Arctic. Vol. 59(4) :370-380 (2006).
