Orville Huntington

Orville Huntington earned his Bachelor of Science in Wildlife Biology from the University of Alaska, Fairbanks. Participating on many professional panels, Orville Huntington currently works as the Chair of the Interior Athabascan Tribal College, a Refuge Information Technician at the Koyukuk/Nowitna NWR ,[1] a Vice Chairperson for the Alaska Native Science Committee (since 2000), and the Interior Villages Representative on the Alaska Federation of Natives Board for the 43 villages in the Doyon area. Furthermore, he is dedicated to promoting Native American Traditional Ecological Knowledge by integrating local and traditional knowledge with western science. Mainly, his research analyzes how a subsistence lifestyle directly impacts fish, animals, and plants of Northern ecosystems.

Research contributions

Huntington has been the lead or contributing author on several publications that focus on the relationships between traditional or indigenous knowledge and Western science.[2][3][4] The focus of several articles is climate change adaptations and the ways that indigenous expertise and spiritual, ethical practices contribute to an understanding of ecosystems.[5][6] In addition, the research offers an interdisciplinary perspective that speaks to the intersections of tribal knowledge, spiritual traditions, and wildlife management and regulations.[7][8]

gollark: Also, they can ionise things without stopping.
gollark: My physics knowledge is obviously not really that complete, and you're not being very specific, but it's probably that they can only go through a bit of matter, or at least are *sometimes* absorbed and sometimes go through.
gollark: It seems harder to shield humans and the weird biological processes which get affected against radiation than computers, where it basically just boils down to more redundancy and possibly better materials/processes.
gollark: (there's ECC support in RAM and SSDs and stuff, but as far as I know they just put radiation shielding on for CPUs)
gollark: Stuff is generally not designed for an environment where bits might be flipped randomly at some point, though.
