​​​​​Current Coastal Change Research and Priority Information Needs in western Alaska

Research on coastal change in Western Alaska has increased rapidly in recent years, making it challenging to track existing projects, understand their cumulative insights, gauge remaining research gaps, and prioritize future research. This project identified existing coastal change projects in Western Alaska that were happening in 2014, scheduled for 2015 or occured in 2012-2014.  ​

​Project ID: WA2014_35​

Lead Investigator: Sarah Trainor, Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy

Collaborators: Corrine Knapp, Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Policy; Casey Brown, University of Alaska Fairbanks

​Project Duration: 2014 - 2015

The report (below) provides a synthesis of information about each project category, and an associated online database (see ACCAP project page link below) describes individual projects and information on how to contact the project leader. These products document the project landscape for communities facing change, decision-makers navigating change, researchers pursuing projects, as well as funding agencies trying to prioritize where to allocate resources.​  The Western Alaska LCC Steering Committee intends to use this to help identify where the LCC should focus its attention in the near future. ​
