The Arctic: A Barometer of Global Climate Variability provides a comprehensive source of information on all aspects of the Arctic region. Through thorough research and first-hand accounts, as well as case studies, it details international arctic research initiatives and native environment including flora and fauna of the Arctic region. It goes on to explore the impact of climate change on the Arctic and the effect of the Arctic on climate change, as well as the environmental issues facing the Arctic region and well as how the region adapts to these. The Arctic is a spectator of global changes and is influenced by all major global effects. In recent years, Arctic sea ice decline has been caused by global warming and life in the Arctic has had to adapt to this, including land and sea animals, plants and human societies living there. Centered around the multi-faceted scientific information on the Arctic, The Arctic: A Barometer of Global Climate Variability brings together all aspects of Arctic research into one concise book, which will be invaluable for post-graduates and early-career researchers in climate science and environmental studies, in order to investigate the effects of climate change on the Arctic and vice versa. It is also a must-read source of information on all aspects of the Arctic for polar scientists, applicable PhD students and anyone searching for information on any aspect of the Arctic region.
