Synopsis

The Arctic, in the polar region, the northernmost part of Earth, is the hotspot for climate change assessments and the sensitive barometer of global climate variability. This book includes the scientific observations in the Arctic region’s climate and the results obtained by scientists at the Indian Arctic station Himadri over the past decade. Designed and structured to incorporate multi-dimensional climate change research output, it is a significant contribution toward understanding, among other issues, the role of persistent organic pollutants and mercury, as well as the increase of carbon monoxide during ozone reduction in the Arctic.
Features include:


Highlights the achievements of climate change research in the Arctic region


Includes case studies of scientists in the Arctic and their significant achievements through the Indian research base Himadri


Provides a thorough review of palaeoclimate change studies, the impact of climate change on biotic components and the impact of climate change on abiotic components


Provides specific details on the study of ozone depletion phenomenon over the Arctic region


Covers a wide range of research contributions


Details sea ice variability in the context of global warming over the Arctic region


Connects seismogenesis with the climate change in the Arctic region
