TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized vulnerability framework was used to structure an interdisciplinary and intercultural examination of factors that influence the ways in which reindeer pastoralism in Finnmark (northern Norway) may be affected by climate change.

TL;DR: The EALAT-Information project as discussed by the authors is an information project focusing on climate change, loss of pastures and how the traditional knowledge of reindeer herders themselves can be utilized to adapt to these changes.

TL;DR: The IPY EALAT Project as mentioned in this paper is an initiative to study the impacts of climate change and to develop local adaptation strategies based upon their traditional knowledge of the land and its uses in an international, interdisciplinary partnership with the science community.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a series of remote sensing capabilities, which are useful to reindeer husbandry, and give the results of the first year of a project, "Reindeer Mapper", which is a remote sensing and GIs-based system to bring together space technologies with indigenous knowledge for sustainable reindeers husbandry in the Russian Arctic.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a new GIs-based system that brings local and indigenous traditional knowledge together with scientific data and information, remote sensing, and information technologies to address health-related environment, weather, climate, pollution and land use change issues for improved decision/policy-making for reindeer husbandry.
