Agents of Change in the New North
Abstract: A geographer with extensive experience in the high latitudes of the Northern Hemi-sphere outlines 12 major agents of change currently active in that hemisphere’s Northern Rim (lands and seas poleward of 45 ° N Lat.). These include population trajectories, aboriginal populations, rising air...
