OVER THE LAST THOUSANDS OF YEARS HUMANS HAVE SURVIVED IN LIVING IN ONE OF THE HARSHEST CLIMATES IN THE WORLD, THE ARCTIC. HOWEVER, FOREIGN CULTURES OVER THE LAST FEW CENTURIES HAVE THREATENED THIS DELICATE ECOSYSTEM. THIS PROJECT LOOKED AT MAPPING ARCTIC MIGRATION IN NORTHERN CANADA. HUMAN, ANIMAL AND INDUSTRIAL SYSTEMS OF MOVEMENT ARE ALL COMPONENTS IN A LARGER ARCTIC ECOSYSTEM. DUE TO INDUSTRIAL MINING ACTIVITIES AT THE MARY RIVER MINE, INCREASED SEA TEMPERATURES, SHIPPING AND WESTERN INFLUENCES ON THE LANDSCAPE, THE MIGRATORY PATHS OF ANIMALS AND INUIT COMMUNITIES HAVE BEEN FORCED TO TRANSITION TO NEW NORMALS. THIS HAS NOT ONLY NEGATIVELY IMPACTED THE DIVERSE ARCTIC FOOD WEB, BUT TRADITIONAL WAYS OF LIVING, IN FAVOUR OF ECONOMIC INTERESTS. THE INTERCONNECTIVITY OF ALL THESE SYSTEMS IS EXPLORED IN THE DEEP MAPPING, GIFS AND VIGNETTE BELOW. PERHAPS BY STUDYING THESE TRENDS THROUGH CARTOGRAPHY, WE WILL BETTER UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT INDUSTRIALIZATION HAS HAD ON OUR CLIMATE AND HOW IT HAS SHAPED THE ARCTIC.
