Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of Manitoba
$200,000.00
Arctic System Science
FY 2021-22
Summary
The world is now well aware of the fact that the Arctic is warming. We have lost an average of 70,000 km2 of multiyear sea ice per year over the past three decades; over 80 percent of the pre-1970 total. My CRC has defined the principal causes of this change, with regional interrogation of the inherent spatial and temporal scales of change. My chair has also elaborated numerous consequences of this change on the Arctic marine system in terms of ecology, biogeochemical impacts, industrial development, Inuit Traditional lifestyles and teleconnected impacts to temperate parts of our planet.
