Polar ecosystems are the most threatened because they are the most sensitive to global warming. They are being lost at a rapid pace, and with them, ...

The tundra biome is the coldest and one of the largest ecosystems on Earth. It covers about one-fifth of the land on the planet, primarily in the Arctic circle but also in Antarctica as well as a ...

Concerted action is required to mitigate the impact of warming on polar ecosystems and sustainably manage these unique habitats.   Scientists from the University of East Anglia (UEA) and the ...

Pacific Arctic ecosystems are undergoing dramatic changes because of warmer ocean water, a multidisciplinary team of scientists reported in the journal Nature Climate Change.

Changes in the structure and composition of plant communities in this region, driven by warming, have important implications for the functioning not only of the tundra ecosystem, but also for the ...

Winter ice deposits that form on top of Arctic rivers and provide crucial water for ecosystems in the summer are melting far earlier with each successive year. These arctic river icings, which can ...

Tiny organisms are making big moves in Alaska’s boreal and Arctic ecosystems, encouraged by climate change. Underground fungi and bacteria are becoming more active as permafrost thaws in ...

The Arctic region is warming at a rate that is far above the global average. Consequently, snow, glaciers, and permafrost are melting—all of which are contributing to coastal run-off plumes.

NOVOSIBIRSK, April 25. /TASS/. The analysis of man-made impacts on the Arctic ecosystem and work on methods to distinguish between natural and man-made reasons for changes in living systems would ...
