  Northern Ethnographic Landscapes: Perspectives from Circumpolar Nations: Today, few scholars would question the importance of “landscape” as an integrating concept in understanding cultural traditions. Landscape approaches have been applied for several decades in European and North American scholarship. In American anthropology, landscape theory has been influenced strongly by Julian Steward's concept of cultural ecology and more recently by increasingly integrative approaches combining environmental studies, ecology, history, and anthropology. More recent movements toward understanding ethnographic landscapes are being fostered by growing collaboration between scientists and native partners in studies of climate and environmental change, natural resource distribution, subsistence practices, and many other topics having a geographic component. The extension of such studies into historical periods and the deep past and growth in scientific knowledge of paleoenvironments and effects of climate change expand these frontiers still.
