WHERE EXPERIENCE MATTERS: Environmental Restoration in the Aleutian Islands

摘要

When planning and executing environmental restoration projects at uninhabited sites in Alaska's Aleutian Islands, the list of challenges is as long as the barge trip to get there. With the high cost of mobilization to this remote archipelago, where fog, rain, and wind prevail over sunshine, and to locations where no records show a vessel landing since World War Ⅱ (if ever), achieving project delivery in one field season is undoubtedly preferred. The work most often must be done within a slim window of only nine weeks. Experience matters.
