Fieldwork in a Cold Climate
2013
Haigh, J. C. (Jerry C.)
It is essential that proper advanced preparation is in place before initiating a field project situated in a cold environment. Protection of the body from the wind, precipitation, and low temperatures through the use of appropriate clothing is a key to survival. Having appropriate cold-climate clothing is important, but also wearing this clothing in a manner that is most effective at maintaining a normal body temperature will help prevent both hypothermia and hyperthermia. Proper preparation includes working emergency equipment, knowledge of how to use the emergency equipment, and developing a field plan to leave with a contact. Special care must be provided to medications in a freezing environment, and there are methods that ensure that treatments can occur when needed.
