The Arctic Eider Society / Societe Des Eiders De L'Arctique (AES~SEA - pronoucned 'ICY') is commited to sustaining the integrity of sea ice ecosystems. The society was created to further development of community-based research, monitoring and education programs in the Canadian Arctic. Working directly with Inuit, this supports the use and preservation of sea ice knowledge to study environmental change in Arctic ecosystems, providing meaningful employment that addresses local and global issues. Our interdisciplinary education and outreach initiatives combine Inuit, scientific and filmmaking approaches to document and broadly disseminate knowledge about sea ice ecosystems and environmental change in the Arctic.
