The sensitivity of Canada’s Yukon Coastal Plain to a warming climate
will have profound impacts on the permafrost coastline of Canada’s Beaufort Sea. In addition to warmer air and sea temperatures contributing to erosion, coasts will experience higher sea levels and increased storminess, and they will be exposed to these conditions for longer periods due to an increa...

will have profound impacts on the permafrost coastline of Canada’s Beaufort Sea. In addition to warmer air and sea temperatures contributing to erosion, coasts will experience higher sea levels and increased storminess, and they will be exposed to these conditions for longer periods due to an increase in the length of the open water season. This study examines what makes one region of this coastline-- the Yukon Coastal Plain--especially susceptible to change and the importance of monitoring that change. |
