This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5). This project is an interdisciplinary effort to systematically document, model, and interpret key linkages between physical, biological and human systems in the context of changing seasonality (phenology) due to global and local climate change. In line with the CSAS solicitation, the primary research objective of PHENARC is to understand the linkages between Arctic system climate change, altered phenological processes, and adaptations and responses of human societies to these changes to decipher implications for the future. The project?s overarching research questions are: i) What are the key seasonal events that form an integral part of the ecosystems in PHENARC?s two main study areas of northeastern Siberia and Labrador?; ii) How are these seasonal events changing, and what specific phenological shifts are occurring in these study areas?; iii) What are the drivers of these seasonal events, and how do they ripple through/affect the entire system?; iv) How are phenological changes and their resulting ecosystem impacts affecting the timing of people?s subsistence and other activities?; v) How are these societal changes in turn affecting the larger cultural system? In order to answer such questions, PHENARC will employ qualitative and quantitative methods of field study, retrospective investigations, and modeling/synthesis techniques. Data sources will include: systematic meteorological observations; climate proxy data; documentary historical records; oral history; and data drawn from interviews with contemporary respondents in the project?s two study areas. PHENARC builds upon the solid foundation of Arctic systems data already established by the project PIs in the Arctic/Subarctic regions of northeastern Siberia and Labrador/Nunatsiavut, two arctic regions not extensively studied before, that provide a variety of terrains, and ecosystem and human communities for a robust comparative study. Additionally, the communities differ in cultural and ethnic mix. PHENARC represents a novel approach to advancing knowledge of key linkages between climate and human systems by integrating Arctic climate data with local knowledge drawn from rural native communities in two distinct arctic regions. PHENARC involves the targeted communities, regional and national specialists, and a team of international collaborators and affiliates. By investigating patterns of seasonality in two disparate arctic regions that are each home to a dynamic contrast of mixed and native settlements, and with a resulting potential transfer of knowledge across scales and international borders, PHENARC?s contribution to global knowledge promises to be considerable with high potential for disseminating widely new knowledge regarding changing seasonality in Arctic climate and human systems. Project is includes a close collaboration with local community residents and the results will be disseminated widely on local, regional, and circumpolar levels.

该奖项是根据2009年《美国复苏与再投资法》（公法111-5）资助的。该项目是跨学科的努力，用于系统地记录，模型和解释由于全球和地方气候变化导致的季节性（物候）的背景下，物理，生物学和人类系统之间的关键联系。与CSA的招标相一致，Squarc的主要研究目标是了解北极系统气候变化，物候学过程的改变以及人类社会对这些变化对破译意义的变化的适应和反应之间的联系。该项目的总体研究问题是：i）在苯克号西北部和拉布拉多的两个主要研究领域中，哪些关键季节性事件构成了生态系统的组成部分？ ii）这些季节性事件如何改变，这些研究领域正在发生什么特定的物候转移？ iii）这些季节性事件的驱动因素是什么，它们如何贯穿/影响整个系统？ iv）物候变化及其由此产生的生态系统会影响人们的生存时间和其他活动的时间？ v）这些社会变化如何影响更大的文化体系？为了回答此类问题，Amarc将采用定性和定量方法的现场研究，回顾性研究以及建模/合成技术。数据源将包括：系统的气象观察；气候代理数据；纪录片历史记录；口述历史；以及来自该项目的两个研究领域的当代受访者的访谈中得出的数据。 PANC建立在PIS PIS已经在西伯利亚东北部北极/北极地区建立的北极系统数据的固体基础上建立的，这是两个未进行广泛研究的北极地区，这些区域是为了提供多种地形的系统和人类社区的，用于一项强大的比较研究。此外，社区在文化和族裔组合方面有所不同。该表是一种新颖的方法，可以通过将北极气候数据与来自两个不同北极地区的农村土著社区绘制的本地知识相结合，从而促进对气候和人类系统之间关键联系的知识。该表演涉及有针对性的社区，地区和国家专家，以及由国际合作者和分支机构组成的团队。通过调查两个不同的北极地区的季节性模式，它们是混合和本地定居点的动态对比的家园，并导致了跨尺度和国际边界知识的潜在转移，这是对全球知识的贡献，有望具有很大的巨大潜力，这些潜力很高，可以在芳香气候和人类系统中散发出广泛的新知识。项目包括与当地社区居民进行密切合作，结果将在本地，区域和极度级别上广泛传播。
