Work completed by ANTHC has identified climate-related active and potential human health threats in three thematic areas: 1) Permafrost changes; 2) Habitat changes; 3) Impacts on wildlife. Rural villages in Arctic Alaska have requested, and received in-depth environmental health assessments, and adaptation strategies are in development. In response to these findings, ANTHC has developed the RAMP, and is collaborating with UA to develop relevant monitoring and surveillance tools for the thematic areas identified. This includes a training curriculum for village residents who will be observing, monitoring the RAMP technology, and collecting specimens. In addition, the UA will be funded to develop laboratory technology...
The Alaska Data Integration Working Group (ADIwg) Metadata Toolkit is an open source, suite of web applications for authoring and editing metadata for both spatial and non-spatial projects and datasets. The main goal of the toolkit is to promote the creation and use of metadata by lowering the level of technical expertise required to produce archival quality metadata.mdJSON is the metadata format ties the suite of tools together. The mdEditor is an open source client-side web application design to allow users to manage metadata for projects and data products. The mdEditor may be used to create mdJSON and interface with the mdTranslator to output metadata in multiple standards, including ISO 19115-2, 19115-1, 19110,...

The identification of heavy metals such as mercury, and highly persistent lipophilic anthropogenic contaminants in the circumpolar food chain of all Arctic countries has raised awareness in wildlife scientists, and human health authorities on the need to better understand the possible climate-mediated influence on atmospheric and ocean transport mechanisms on the exposure of biota, including humans, in the Arctic. Certain contaminants are known to interfere with immune response in both humans and wildlife.Researchers developed a village climate and health impact assessment tool; identified climate change vulnerabilities for the Native Village of Selawik and developed a climate adaptation strategy; developed biomonitoring...
