One explanation for the discrepancies between Inuit observations and research station data is that the weather station was in a fixed flat area at the airport, while Inuit hunters ranged long distances in complex topographies.

In Clyde River, Nunavut, Inuit hunters reported significant changes in wind persistence, but the research station recorded no significant changes in wind direction or wind persistence in northeast winds.
“Inuit hunters had reported significant changes in wind persistence (likelihood that wind conditions 1 day are followed by similar conditions the following day).”

The discovery of discrepancies between Inuit observations and research station data led to the establishment of more weather stations around hunting areas and other projects to extend indigenous monitoring.
“The discovery of these discrepancies has led to the establishment of more weather stations around the hunting areas which are being correlated to indigenous weather observations, as well as other projects to extend indigenous monitoring of sea-ice thickness, extent and other climate-related phenomena.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
