Abstract:
This study compiled and analyzed traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) for sockeye, coho, Chinook, pink, and chum salmon about subsistence fisheries in Southeast Alaska. Some TEK was also compiled and analyzed for Pacific herring, eulachon, steelhead trout, and Dolly Varden. Previously collected and documented knowledge was organized and made accessible in a textual database. This documentation of traditional knowledge demonstrated the continuing importance of sharing and trade of wild resources, especially fish, and the traditional conservation practices employed by Alaska Native subsistence users.
