<h2>Ikaaġvik Sikukun</h2>

</header>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Ikaaġvik Sikukun is a research project that couples state-of-the-art geophysical observations from unmanned aerial systems (UAS) with a community-engaged research approach to bridge scientific and indigenous understanding of sea ice change in the Alaska Arctic. Our research team represents a partnership between academic researchers and the Native Village of Kotzebue and includes expertise in ice and ocean physics, marine biology, ethnography and documentary filmmaking. The research will take place in and around the community of Kotzebue, Alaska, which lies within Kotzebue Sound on the coast of southern Chukchi Sea. Sea ice is integral to the way of life for Kotzebue’s indigenous residents who rely on the marine mammals that inhabit the ice pack for food and clothing. Our study plan begins and ends with the involvement of community members to help craft research questions, collect observations and synthesize our findings. Ultimately, the findings will contribute to predictive assessments of the changing cryosphere of Kotzebue Sound, the implications of such change for the ecology and the Iñupiaq way of life that is dependent upon it. Through this approach, we will address key questions concerning the mechanisms and impacts of rapid changes taking place in the Arctic while ensuring that our answers incorporate traditional ways of knowing and are relevant to local needs. </p>

<p>Cyrus is a lifelong coastal Alaskan, living mostly at Sisualik, about 12 miles across the bay from Kotzebue. He learned from a young age the importance of keeping track of the ice when the weather changed and how and when the ice is taken out. His people rely heavily on caribou, fish, waterfoul, and especially sea mammals. He hunts for bearded seal, ring seal and spotted seal, which requires that he studies and keeps track of the sea ice when it's first forming in fall time, during the winter months for overflow, when land fast ice is created, and when the nearest leads are created for seal hunting.</br>
<br>Cyrus runs Maniilaq Association's Hunter Support Program, which provides fish and game to elders. He also helped to establish a traditional food donation center and food storage facility called the Siġḷauq. Not only does he hunt, gather and fish for his family, but he also supplies this program with a lot of it's subsistence foods, which keeps him very active in activities across Kotzebue Sound throughout the year by boat, dog team, and snow-machine.</br>
<br>He is also involved in the Western Arctic Caribou Herd Working Group, the Alaska Beluga Whale Committee, the Inuit Circumpolar Council-Alaska, and with Alaska Fish and Game Advisory Committee.</p>

of order one centimeter) and the role they play in mediating physical air-sea
interaction. In the course of this work, he was able to spend a good amount of time
at sea in the Gulf of Mexico observing near-surface material transport patterns,
effort which was primarily motivated by the interest in understanding the transport
of spilled oil. He is very excited to apply his understanding of air-sea interaction
physics towards describing sea ice breakup, especially through the unique lens that

Fisheries Science Center, Marine Mammal Laboratory. The program conducts
monitoring and research on harbor seals and ice-associated (ringed, bearded,
spotted, and ribbon) seals in Alaska. His primary research interests are in the
estimation of population abundance, trends, and in satellite telemetry studies of habitat use, and foraging behavior. He has been involved for the past two decades in collaborations with Alaska Native organizations in support of co-management
agreements between those organizations and NOAA Fisheries for management of
subsistence uses of seals. Peter’s team has worked on several seal research projects
in the Kotzebue community, including aerial surveys and satellite tagging studies.</br>
<br>
Peter joined NOAA in 1986. He received Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in biology from
Montana State University and a B.A. from Cornell University. His field research on
ice-associated polar seals has taken him from 78 degrees South to 71 degrees North
latitude. After focusing on Antarctic seals and seabirds from 1989 to 1995, he has
incorporated sub-Arctic and Arctic seals into a variety of <a href="https://www.afsc.noaa.gov/nmml/polar/">ongoing projects</a> in both
polar regions.</br></p>

<p>Kristin is a Principal Scientist at the Polar Science Center, Applied
Physics Laboratory, University of Washington working on problems of applied animal
ecology in the Arctic. She is an Associate Professor at the School of Aquatic and Fishery
Sciences and is partially supported by the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources in
Nuuk, Greenland. She was named a Pew Marine Conservation fellow in 2017. Kristin’s
research is focused on broad questions about Arctic marine mammals. Her research is
field-based, largely empirical, and focuses on using quantitative data on individual
movements, foraging behavior, and life history to unite behavioral, population, and
evolutionary ecology. Her interests include wildlife conservation and management,
scaling questions in ecology, and the application of Geographic Information Systems to
spatial data. She is a member of the IUCN Species Survival Commission Cetacean
Specialist Group and the IUCN Polar Bear Specialist Group. She has participated in over
40 field expeditions in Greenland and authored or co-authored over 100 peer-reviewed
scientific articles and 3 books on high-latitude marine mammals.</p>

Latitude Engineering’s HQ-90B aircraft represents a giant leap in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
(UAV) capability, enabling long-endurance missions with vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL)
and optimized to perform in remote locations such as Alaska’s Arctic coastal communities. The
Hybrid Quadrotor (HQ) technology offers the efficiency, speed, and range of a normal fixed-
wing aircraft with no need for a runway or other complex launch and recovery equipment.
The HQ-90B has a cruising speed of 40 knots, with a 15-hour endurance carrying a nominal
15-lb payload. The HQ-90B can reach 14,000 feet, has a wingspan of 185 inches and weighs
115 lb. The aircraft features a swappable nose cone for holding a variety of payloads that can be
switched out quickly. Compared to pure multi-rotors, HQ technology is more cost effective,
more reliable, has higher top speed, more endurance, more wind tolerance, and can cover more
ground. Compared to fixed wing aircraft, HQ technology operates from more locations and from
more types of platforms.
