By exploring indigenous people's knowledge and use of sea ice, the
SIKU project has demonstrated the power of multiple perspectives
and introduced a new field of interdisciplinary research, the study
of social (socio-cultural) aspects of the natural world, or what we
call the social life of sea ice. It incorporates local
terminologies and classifications, place names, personal stories,
teachings, safety rules, historic narratives, and explanations of
the empirical and spiritual connections that people create with the
natural world. In opening the social life of sea ice and the value
of indigenous perspectives we make a novel contribution to IPY, to
science, and to the public.
