Description
Summary:Arctic climate encompasses multiple feed-backs, the most important of which is the ice-albedo feedback. Enhanced Arctic changes, fi rst recognized in the nineteenth century, increasingly are being observed across ter-restrial, oceanic, atmospheric, and human systems, inspiring interdisciplinary research efforts, including the Study of Environmental Arctic Change (SEARCH) program, to under-stand the nature and future development of the Arctic system. In response to the need for enhanced understanding outlined in the 2005 SEARCH
