dc.description.abstractMy research intends to bridge the gap between scientists and indigenous people by using common interests and ideas to encourage discourse and the exchange of a variety of perspectives and stories. Glaciers are of particular interest to my research as they represent an interesting intersection between science and tradition. A glacier can be a god for one person, a source of data for another. How, then, do you reconcile the two views? There is no one good answer, but there are steps that we, as scientists, can take to improve these interactions.en_US
