Arctic Carbon Sinks: Present and Future.
Surface air temperatures of the Arctic rose 1.2 deg -1.5 deg C from 1880 to 1980, in contrast to a global warming of only 0.4 deg -0.5 deg C; since 1980, six of the warmest years in the past century have been observed. Polar enhancement of a temperature rise, induced possibly by anthropogenic releas...
