Arctic Researchers Partner with Indigenous Communities
Vera Kuklina, a research professor in Columbian College’s Department of Geography, will lead a team of researchers in a National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded investigation of the shifting Arctic landscape’s impact on Indigenous peoples and local communities. The GW team will work with researchers from Alaska Pacific and Arizona State Universities and the Universities of Alaska Fairbanks, New Hampshire and Northern Iowa.
