WP5: Case studies in USA

Objective: (1) to develop a concept map of how coastal community observing programs currently produce and share information on coastal sea ice and permafrost thaw hazards.

WP5 leader and co-leaders: Finn Danielsen (NORDECO), Noor Johnson (ELOKA) and Olivia Lee (IARC/UAF). 

The case study will help to address this gap in terms of moving from community produced observations towards integrated observing systems co-produced with different data users at different governance levels, from community to State of Alaska to federal agencies, as well as researchers.

  • Task 5.1 Stakeholder and user interviews
