Adaptive Capacity as Cultural Practice
provide an insightful synthesis about the poverty and rigidity traps. They note how these states can be quite resilient and undesirable for indigenous cultures. We support their approach and add three additional considerations
Comparative Resilience in Five North Pacific Regional Salmon Fisheries
Over the past century, regional fisheries for Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) have been managed primarily for their provisioning function, not for ecological support and cultural significance. We examine the resilience of the regional salmon fisheries of Japan, the Russian Far East, Alaska, British Columbia, and Washington-Oregon-California (WOC) in terms of their provisioning function. Using the three dimensions of the adaptive cycle-capital,…

Occupation and Community As Determinants of Fishing Behaviors
Community, as a territorial unit, persists as a major determinant of cultural behavior, despite all the integrating technologies of the electronic age. Two approaches toward the study of fishing, community study and an occupational focus, suggest alternative methods for analyzing and managing fisheries. Community studies lead to suggestions about including the community of fishing interest in management planning. Occupational analyses indicate ho…
Resolving allocation conflicts in fishery management
Fishery management conflicts increase as decisions evolve through three stages: conservation, regulation, and allocation. The major sources of conflict in fishery management are increases in the size and effectiveness of user populations, stabilization or decline in the resource base, cultural differences between users, and different goal orientations of users. We present four case studies of Pacific U.S. fishery conflicts, detailing the processe…

Two Bits on Computer-Aided Learning in Anthropology
The author describes computer-aided learning that can be used in introductory anthropology courses as well as in courses designed for majors. This experience is used to identify design and evaluation concepts that will help in developing computer-aided learning so anthropology students can use cultural variables and make cultural decisions
Brain Size, Cranial Morphology, Climate, and Time Machines [and Comments and Reply]
A bioclimatic model is evaluated as an explanation of variation in cranial capacity among 122 ethnic groups. Distribution of absolute and relative endocranial volume is mapped. Significant correlations occur with all nine climatic variables examined. Major foci of adaptation occur with solar radiation, vapor pressure, and winter temperature. Global mean trait increase is 2.5 cm per degree of equatorial distance. The interactive geometry between c…
On Cranial Morphology and Climate
Growth in Population and Energy Consumption
Climate and the evolution of brachycephalization
Significant associations of cranial shape for 82 ethnic groups and seven climate variables are described. Variation among current populations is partially attributed to cold adaptation throughout the Pleistocene. Application of data files tabulated by the authors is described for a number of problems. Temporal distribution of 115 specimens indicates a geometric trend (CI = 76.7 – 1.96 log time × 10 3 ). Cranial indices are summarized within alter…
Community Wealth Concentration
Intracultural Variation
Measures other than central tendency are required to develop theories of intracultural diversity. To measure the distribution of wealth, behavior, or ideas in a population, statistical measures of variation can be used. Equity and diversity measures for the distribution of wealth are proposed using the skew and kurtosis statistics. Historical data for four North Pacific fisheries indicate that associated with resource decline is greater inequity …
