Arctic climate research explores the climate conditions and changes in the Arctic region. This includes studying factors such as temperature, precipitation, sea ice extent, and permafrost thaw. Researchers in this field aim to understand the impacts of climate change on Arctic ecosystems, wildlife, and indigenous communities, as well as the potential global implications of Arctic climate changes. Key research topics in this area include atmospheric and oceanic circulation patterns, feedback mechanisms, and the role of the Arctic in the global climate system.
