Description

Presented at The Arctic and Environmental Change meeting held by the Royal Society in October 1994, the fourteen papers which form the basis of this book contain a wide-ranging review of Arctic environmental change in response to global warming, and also give a broad insight into the transformation of the Arctic which we can expect during the next century. It will be an invaluable reference for anyone seeking a greater understanding of the factors and processes affecting the Arctic environment which may ultimately have a major impact on global climatic change.
