Arctic Observation Social Indicators Project

This project aims to identify and analyze social indicators in the Arctic region, focusing on areas such as fisheries, resource development, tourism, and social interactions. The project team consists of researchers from various countries and stakeholders involved in Arctic issues. The project will define protocols, analyze time series indicators, and assess data to address key scientific questions related to Arctic environmental change and its impact on cultural and socioeconomic systems.
