ED43F:
Cross-Cultural Scientific Investigation: Connecting Remote Sensors with Ground Sensors Posters


Submit an Abstract to this Session


Session ID#: 52308

Session Description:
Science is a multifaceted process bringing to bear different kinds of observations, histories, and technologies to the understanding of natural phenomena. Diversifying ways of knowing serves to strengthen that understanding. Bringing together federal, academic and tribal perspectives, such as combining remote sensing data with “in situ” ground knowledge held by Indigenous peoples is critical. When science ignores Indigenous perspectives, scientific understanding and outcomes are compromised through loss of designs and solutions not considered. Building collaborations with Sovereign Nations requires an emphasis on Indigenous empowerment and self-determination, as well as Indigenous historical and cultural practices. This session will bring together Scholars, Indigenous Knowledge Holders, and multiple government agencies for a discussion on building cross-cultural collaborations in the study of Earth system science research.

 

We welcome abstracts that share lessons learned, protocols for collaborations, and other resources for building mutually respective relationships and complementary efforts between Academia, Scientists and Tribal Nations.
