Across the Arctic, strange things are happening to the landscape. Massive lakes, several square miles in size, have disappeared in the span of a few days. Hillsides slump.

New research led by the University of California, Riverside, suggests that a slowdown in a significant ocean current may help reduce Arctic warming projections by up to 2 degrees Celsius by the century’s end. The study was published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, investigating how a slowing Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) […]
Winning tip: make tracks for northern Sweden Waking up to a pink Arctic sunrise over endless fir trees from my bunk on the overnight train from Stockholm to Abisko was the perfect start to a winter adventure.

Scientists from UiT The Arctic University of Norway have raised concerns about Arctic sea-ice melt affecting global ocean circulation. The study shows that melting ice in the Arctic is sending large amounts of freshwater into the Nordic Seas, a key area for ocean heat transfer, which could lead to a drop in temperatures across northern […]
“Our finding that enhanced melting of Arctic sea-ice likely resulted in significant cooling in northern Europe in the earth’s past is alarming,” says Mohamed Ezat from the iC3 Polar Research Hub, lead author of the new study. “This reminds us that the planet’s climate is a delicate balance, easily disrupted by changes in temperature and […]
USGS In a warming Arctic, polar bears are spending more of their time on land As the Arctic warms, polar bears face a growing risk of contracting viruses, bacteria and parasites that they were less likely to encounter just 30 years ago, research has revealed. In a study that has provided clues about how polar […]
