Download or read book Haa Aaní written by Walter Goldschmidt and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1940s, a boom in white migration to Southeast Alaska brought up questions of land and resource rights. In 1946, the Commissioner of Indian Affairs assigned a team of researchers to interview old and young villagers to discover who owned and used the lands and waters of the region and under what rules. Their report is published here for the first time in book form, along with text of interviews with 88 natives, a reminiscence by an anthropologist on the research team, and an introduction explaining the context and significance of the original report.

Download or read book Make Prayers to the Raven written by Richard K. Nelson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-05-23 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nelson spent a year among the Koyukon people of western Alaska, studying their intimate relationship with animals and the land. His chronicle of that visit represents a thorough and elegant account of the mystical connection between Native Americans and the natural world."—Outside "This admirable reflection on the natural history of the Koyukon River drainage in Alaska is founded on knowledge the author gained as a student of the Koyukon culture, indigenous to that region. He presents these Athapascan views of the land—principally of its animals and Koyukon relationships with those creatures—together with a measured account of his own experiences and doubts. . . . For someone in search of a native American expression of 'ecology' and natural history, I can think of no better place to begin than with this work."—Barry Lopez, Orion Nature Quarterly "Far from being a romantic attempt to pass on the spiritual lore of Native Americans for a quick fix by others, this is a very serious ethnographic study of some Alaskan Indians in the Northern Forest area. . . . He has painstakingly regarded their views of earth, sky, water, mammals and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. He does admire their love of nature and spirit. Those who see the world through his eyes using their eyes will likely come away with new respect for the boreal forest and those who live with it and in it, not against it."—The Christian Century "In Make Prayers to the Raven Nelson reveals to us the Koyukon beliefs and attitudes toward the fauna that surround them in their forested habitat close to the lower Yukon. . . . Nelson's presentation also gives rich insights into the Koyukon subsistence cycle through the year and into the hardships of life in this northern region. The book is written with both brain and heart. . . . This book represents a landmark: never before has the integration of American Indians with their environment been so well spelled out."—Ake Hultkrantz, Journal of Forest History

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of studies by anthropologists, botanists, ecologists, and biologists is an important contribution to the emerging field of historical ecology. The book combines cutting-edge research with new perspectives to emphasize the close relationship between humans and their natural environment. Contributors examine how alterations in the natural world mirror human cultures, societies, and languages. Treating the landscape like a text, these researchers decipher patterns and meaning in the Ecuadorian Andes, Amazonia, the desert coast of Peru, and other regions in the neotropics. They show how local peoples have changed the landscape over time to fit their needs by managing and modifying species diversity, enhancing landscape heterogeneity, and controlling ecological disturbance. In turn, the environment itself becomes a form of architecture rich with historical and archaeological significance. Time and Complexity in Historical Ecology explores thousands of years of ecological history while also addressing important contemporary issues, such as biodiversity and genetic variation and change. Engagingly written and expertly researched, this book introduces and exemplifies a unique method for better understanding the link between humans and the biosphere.

Download or read book Marine Mammals and the Exxon Valdez written by Thomas R. Loughlin and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The oil spill disaster that occurred when the Exxon Valdez ran aground has become part of the iconography of ecological disaster. This book synthesizes confidential data, recently released by the US government, concerning the effects of this spill on marine mammals (ie. sea otters, harbour seals, killer whales and humpback whales). Many of the contributors were on site within 24 hours of the spill and their results establish a baseline worst case scenario. These data should assist marine biologists, pathologists, toxicologists, environmentatlists, engineers, and coastal planners in assessing the nature of this disaster.

Book excerpt: Dr. Riki Ott exposes the profound legacy of the Exxon Valdez oil spill and how readers can help reshape our global energy future. The author chronicles the long-lasting environmental harm to Prince William Sound, Alaska, and investigates the health problems suffered by many cleanup workers. Exxon's spill provided a portal to understanding a startling truth: oil is much more toxic than we previously thought. Sound Truth and Corporate Myth$ frames the larger story of discovery of the truly toxic nature of oil. This book shows how one particular fraction of crude oil, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons or PAHs, may well be the new DDT of the 21st century. In 1999, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency listed 22 PAHs in crude oil as "persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic (PBT) pollutants." Sharing this list of extreme human health hazards are the more commonly known pollutants--mercury, lead, dioxin, PCBs, and DDT. The latter are all highly regulated chemicals and some, such as DDT and PCBs, have been banned in the United States. Sound Truth and Corporate Myth$ traces 15 years of lingering harm to humans and wildlife from the Exxon Valdez oil spill. It reveals how corporate greed, government short-sightedness, and manipulation of the truth and the media have kept the public from learning the deadly nature of PAHs. The author provides relevant information and practical recommendations for people and policy-makers at this critical juncture in the history of civilization. This book will inspire people to reduce their own consumption of fossil fuels and, in so doing, help permanently shift society to a clean energy future.

This book was released on 1961 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stomach samples of king salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were collected from the commercial troll fishery of Southeastern Alaska in 1957 and 1958. Herring accounted for the largest percentage of the five organisms eaten most frequently by both species of salmon. The diet of coho salmon was found to be much more varied than that of king salmon. Differences in the salmons' diet between four geographic areas of Southeastern Alaska and differences occurring in relation to the size of the salmon were analyzed and described.
