The collection of information is necessary in order to better understand berry dynamics in the Yukon-Kuskokwim (YK) delta and future impacts to berry resources that may result from climate change induced ecological and weather changes. Berries are an important subsistence resource for human populations and bird populations in this region. Information will be collected in the form of a cultural consensus survey concerning four different berry species (local names: cloudberries, red berries, blackberries, and blueberries). Cultural consensus surveys are dichotomous surveys in which the survey participant is forced to answer yes/no true/false. In this way analysis of the surveys can reveal a community-wide consensus of correct answers for each question. This is a new collection, therefore the agency has not made use of any information.
The latest form for Yukon-Kuskokwin Delta Berry Outlook expires 2021-11-30 and can be found here.
