Review of science issues, deployment strategy, and status for the ARM North Slope of AlaskaAdjacent Arctic Ocean climate research site
Recent climate modeling results point to the Arctic as a region that is particularly sensitive to global climate change. The Arctic warming predicted by the models to result from the expected doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide is two to three times the predicted mean global warming, and consider...
