Summary edit

Description

200th Greetings from the small fishing community of Chignik, Alaska! On the south shore of the Alaska Peninsula, about 250 miles southwest of Kodiak, is the small fishing community of Chignik. Residents of Chignik and two nearby villages fish for sockeye salmon at the mouth of the Chignik River and cod, crab, sablefish, halibut, and herring in nearby waters. NOAA anthropologists were conducting field research where they worked with local fishermen and community members to better understand the effects of fisheries policies and Steller sea lion protection measures in these communities. The only access to the communities is by small airplane or by boat.

Pictured (from left) are anthropologists Dr. Palma Ingles, now with National Marine Fisheries Service Southeast Regional Office, graduate student Amanda Poole, and Dr. Jennifer Sepez of the National Marine Fisheries Service Alaska Fisheries Science Center as they wait for a small commuter plane to pick them up at the Chignik International Airport.
