Autorenporträt
Donna D.W. Hauser is a research assistant professor at the International Arctic Research Center at the University of Alaska Fairbanks where she pursues interdisciplinary and collaborative research in marine ecology. She grew up on Denai'na land in Anchorage, Alaska where she sprouted her deep passion for Alaska's amazing people, places, and wildlife. Kathryn J. Frost worked as a Marine Mammals Research Biologist for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game from 1975-2000 studying the natural history and ecology of seals and beluga whales in Alaska. She studied the winter ecology of ringed seals in the Chukchi Sea and Kotzebue Soundin the 1980's; and worked with the Native Village of Kotzebue Environmental Program beginning in 2003 to develop a community-based seal research program to satellite tag ringed and bearded seals in Kotzebue Sound. Alex V. Whiting developed the Environmental Program for the Native Village of Kotzebue in 1997. A major focus of the Program has been Kotzebue Sound ecology, including marine mammal research. The approach of the Environmental Program has been to create partnerships between the Indigenous Knowledge holders of the Tribe and outside researchers to undertake cooperative research efforts to understand the changing climate and the effects on the physical and natural environment of Kotzebue Sound.
