II. D. Research training
The IKIP project in 2000 provided field training for one undergraduate student (Cristie Boone, UW) and three graduate students (Christopher Lockwood, UW; Scotty Moore, UW; and Marina Shubina, Sakhalin). These participants engaged fully in all aspects of research planning, execution, and analysis. At the University of Washington, Ms. Boone, Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Moore have research responsibilities over many of the ongoing analyses, and they can expect to contribute to and benefit from the publication of aspects of this research. In addition, this project provided opportunities for the interdisciplinary collaboration of biologists, archaeologists and geologists, enhancing the cross-fertilization of research and enhancing the value of the scientific results obtained. This interdisciplinary approach is only just beginning to demonstrate its potential in the synthesis of modern and historical dimensions of biodiversity that is underway as a result of this past summer's collaborative research. .
