McGovern It is a genuine pleasure to provide this foreword to what will certainly become a key volume for the integration of the long-term perspective (longue durée) with present and future efforts to cope with hazards to the environment and human welfare. As Payson Sheets and Jago Cooper emphasize in their introduction and overview chapter, this group of contributors draws upon an impressive range of disciplines and well-developed case studies from around the globe. They are united in a growing movement among archaeologists, environmental historians, and paleoecologists to make a well-understood past serve to cre- ate a more genuinely sustainable future and increase human resilience in the face of both gradual and sudden change (Constanza, Graumlich, and Steffen 2007; Crumley 1994; Dugmore et al. 2007; Fisher, Hill, and Feinman 2009; Hornberg, McNeill, and Martinez-Alier 2007; Kirch 1997, 2007; Kohler and van der Leeuw 2007; Marks 2007; McGovern et al 2007; Norberg et al. 2008; Redman et al. 2004; Rick and Erlandson 2008; Sabloff 1998). THE EAGLE HILL MEETING, OcTOBER 2009 The editors and contributors are also connected by their participation in the three-day Global Longterm Human Ecodynamics Conference hosted by the Humboldt Field Research Institute at its excellent facility in Eagle Hill, vii THOMAS H. McGOVERN Maine, on October 16–19, 2009 (http://www.eaglehill.us/). The conference was generously funded by a grant from the US National Science Foundation (NSF), Office of Polar Programs (OPP), Arctic Social Sciences Program, as part of President Barack Obama’s American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Our OPP grants officer, Dr. Anna Kerttula de Echave, played an invaluable and inspirational role before, during, and after what proved to be an incredibly ener- gized and successful meeting. The Eagle Hill meeting grew out of discussions with the NSF about the desirability of harvesting fresh data and perspectives acquired by some of the large-scale projects funded under new cross-disciplin- ary initiatives, including the NSF Biocomplexity competition, the Human and Social Dimensions of Global Change program, and the International Polar Year (2007–2009), as well as various European interdisciplinary programs (BOREAS, Leverhulme Trust projects), to promote more effective interre- gional (especially north-south) communication and integration of teams, cases, and new ideas. In spring 2009 a team drawn from the North Atlantic Biocultural Organization (NABO) research and education cooperative (Andy Dugmore of the University of Edinburgh, Sophia Perdikaris and Tom McGovern of CUNY, and Astrid Ogilvie of the University of Colorado) was tasked with organizing a working conference that would connect teams and scholars active in diverse areas of human ecodynamics research and involve students participating in Sophia’s Islands of Change Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. The October Eagle Hill meeting eventually had seventy-one faculty and student active participants, representing a dozen disciplines and nations worldwide. Prior to the meeting, participants interacted through the NABO website maintained by Dr. Anthony Newton (University of Edinburgh), and this on-line collaboration and preparation proved critical to the success of the meeting (for a full report on the Eagle Hill meeting and a list of faculty partici- pants, see http://www.nabohome.org/meetings/glthec2009.html). As part of the pre-meeting preparation we grouped participants into working groups, each with at least two chairs charged with organizing their groups, leading discussions before and during the meeting, and preparing pre- sentations by each working group for discussion by the entire group. The teams and chairs were: • Methods, Data, and Tools (chairs Doug Price and Tina Thurston): New analytic tools allow transformation in our abilities to trace migra- tion, reconstruct diet, and reconstruct settlement. Some specialties and approaches are very recent in origin (stable isotopes, aDNA), and others have recently been able to significantly upgrade their general util- ity through expanded data resources (archaeobotany, zooarchaeology, geoarchaeology). • Who Cares Wins (Shari Gearheard and Christian Keller): Education, community involvement, policy connections, and interdisciplinary viii FOREWORD engagement. Moving beyond outreach to mobilize traditional environ- mental knowledge (TEK) and local knowledge and expertise for global science. Engaging underrepresented sources of innovation and expand- ing human resources. Connecting science to the public and providing diversity to policy makers. • Hazards and Impacts (Payson Sheets and Jago Cooper): Recurring haz- ards, differential impacts, long-term lessons for vulnerability and resil- ience, successful and unsuccessful models of response and adaptation. • Climate Change (Socorro Lozano and Lisa Kennedy): Climate change impacts, threshold crossings, adaptation versus resilience, past lessons for future impacts. • Models and Visualization (Shripad Tuljapurkar and Tiffany Vance): Digital resources for education, data integration and dissemination, integrative modeling, and exploration of complex causality and complex self-organizing adaptive systems. • Coping and Scale (Tate Paulette and Jeff Quilter): Societies of different scales have produced cases of both failure and long-term sustainability in balancing demands of specialization, short-term efficiency, and long- term flexibility in the face of discontinuous but often rapid changes in natural and social environments. • Ecodynamics of Modernity

  • Ainu Imaginary, Ethnicity and Assimilation
    The Fight for Self-Representation: Ainu Imaginary, Ethnicity and Assimilation Marcos P. Centeno Martín Abstract: Film representation of the Ainu people is as old as cinema but it has not remained stable over time. From the origins of cinema, Ainu people were an object of interest for Japanese and foreign explorers who portrayed them as an Other, savage and isolated from the modern world. The notion of “otherness” was slightly modified during wartime, as the Ainu were represented as Japanese subjects within the “imperial family”, and at the end of the fifties when entertainment cinema presented the Ainu according to the codes of the Hollywood Western on the one hand; and Mikio Naruse proposed a new portrayal focusing on the Ainu as a long-discriminated social collective rather than as an ethnic group, on the other. However, Tadayoshi Himeda’s series of seven documentaries following the Ainu leader Shigeru Kayano’s activities marked a significant shift in Ainu iconography. Himeda challenged both the postwar institutional discourse on the inexistence of minorities in Japan, and the touristic and ahistorical image that concealed the Ainu’s cultural assimilation to Japanese culture. The proposed films do not try to show an exotic people but a conventional people struggling to recover their collective past. Shifts in Ainu Film Representations The relationship between film and the Ainu people is as old as cinema. They are featured in The Ainu in Yeso (Les Aïnous à Yéso, 1897), which are two of the first thirty-three cinematographic sequences shot in Japan as part of the actualités filmed by the French operator François-Constant Girel for a Lumière brothers catalogue.

There are only four lidar stations in the world, which have almost continuously performed observations of the stratospheric aerosol layer (SAL) state for over the last 30 years. The longest time series of the SAL lidar measurements have been accumulated at the Mauna Loa Observatory (Hawaii) since 1973, the NASA Langley Research Center (Hampton, Virginia) since 1974, and Garmisch-Partenkirchen (Germany) since 1976. The fourth lidar station we present started to perform routine observations of the SAL parameters in Tomsk (56.48 N, 85.05 E, Western Siberia, Russia) in 1986. In this 15 paper, we mainly focus on and discuss the stratospheric background period from 2000 to 2005 and the causes of the SAL perturbations over Tomsk in the 2006–2015 period. During the last decade, volcanic aerosol plumes from tropical Mt. Manam, Soufriere Hills, Rabaul, Merapi, Nabro, and Kelut, and extratropical (northern) Mt.

This paper presents model validation results for and FMS scores greater than 0.40 indicate acceptable agree- the latest version release of the FALL3D atmospheric trans- ment with satellite retrievals of volcanic ash and SO2. In ad- port model. The code has been redesigned from scratch to dition, we show very good agreement, across several orders incorporate different categories of species and to overcome of magnitude, between the model and observations for the legacy issues that precluded its preparation towards extreme- 2013 Mt. Etna and 1986 Chernobyl case studies. Our results, scale computing. The model validation is based on the new along with the validation datasets provided in the publicly FALL3D-8.0 test suite, which comprises a set of four real available test suite, form the basis for future improvements case studies that encapsulate the major features of the model; to FALL3D (version 8 or later) and also allow for model in- namely, the simulation of long-range fine volcanic ash dis- tercomparison studies.
