BSSN generates holistic knowledge about the current state of
the environment and the changes affecting food security and
wellbeing of the Bering Sea coastal communities through
a research network of local observers who participate
in biannual surveys. It was funded for a five-year
study by the U.S. National Science Foundation
as part of the Arctic Observing
Network program in 2009
