Demographic and environmental conditions are uncoupled in the socio-ecological system of the Pribilof Islands / Henry P. Huntington, Sarah A. Kruse, Astrid J. Scholz.
Title: | Demographic and environmental conditions are uncoupled in the socio-ecological system of the Pribilof Islands / Henry P. Huntington, Sarah A. Kruse, Astrid J. Scholz. |
Author(s): | Huntington, Henry P. Kruse, Sarah A. Scholz, Astrid J. |
Date: | 2009. |
In: | Polar Research. (2009.), Vol. 28(1) (2009) |
Abstract: | Examines current and recent conditions on Pribilof Islands to assess local perceptions of, and prospects for, economic, social and environmental well-being. Finds few correlations between environmental conditions and socio-economic indicators. Lack of apparent connection between population levels and economic or environmental stimuli could be attributable to several factors: modest economic dependence on environment; predominance of other economic inputs to economies of islands; islanders basing residence choices largely on non-economic factors; and islanders' tolerance of economic fluctuations and uncertainty. |
Notes: | Polar Research. Vol. 28(1) :119-128 (2009). In special issue Climate change impacts, adaptation and variability in the Arctic. |
