Climate Change in the Arctic and its Empirical Diagnostics
The Hypothesis that global climate warming observed during the last century is due to anthropogenically induced carbon dioxide concentration growth, has provoked controversy. In this context, general considerations are discussed which support the view that the ‘greenhouse’ global warming hypothesis...

The Hypothesis that global climate warming observed during the last century is due to anthropogenically induced carbon dioxide concentration growth, has provoked controversy.

Some results of surface air temperature (SAT) observations in the Arctic during the last 20–30 years demonstrate, however a reduction in SAT in several Arctic regions.
