Key Environmental monitoring for Polar Latitudes and European Readiness (KEPLER)
2019 Living Planet Symposium, 13-17 May 2019, Milan, Italy The large changes in Arctic and Antarctic climate, on land, in the ocean and in the atmosphere, are contributing to an ‘opening up’ of the Polar Regions that has important socio-economic, environmental and security implications. The Arctic O...
