• Description:
  The 12 essays featured in Arctic Report Card 2019 provide comprehensive summaries of key land, ice, ocean and atmospheric observations made throughout the in the context of historical records. Taken together, the essays also serve to highlight the many strong and complex connections within the Arctic system. It is these connections that magnify the impact of the changing Arctic environment -- changes that affect ecosystems and communities on a regional and global scale.
