This presentation will highlight past and recent changes in climate and weather events and affects on indigenous communities. Examples include warming in the arctic, decreasing ice cover and permafrost, eroding coastlines, wildfires, floods and droughts, and impact on First Foods such Manoomin (wild rice), medicinal plants, and animal relatives. Increased variability in day-to-day weather has been noted in the Arctic, increasing the challenge of reliable forecasting traditional methods which rely on place-based observations. We will explore a few elements of traditional science of the I帽upiat people as evidenced in the descriptions of weather and ice in the I帽upiaq language. Aspects of this knowledge, such determining weather changes and impending storms will be compared to current approaches to weather and climate forecasting. New tools will be reviewed, such as Smart Ice and SIKU which may reduce the hazard of travel on thinning ice.
