Coast, Man and Environment (the GeoArk Project) is a contribution to research on the strategies of human societies in relation to climate and environmental changes. Observations and datasets produced by field work on late holocene climate change, sea ice dynamics, hunting game and prehistoric settlement patterns are combined in order to enlighten contrasting subsistence strategies applied by the palaeo-Eskimo and Inuit respectively.
