Possible Effects of Climate Warming on Selected Populations of Polar Bears ( Ursus maritimus ) in the Canadian Arctic
Polar bears depend on sea ice for survival. Climate warming in the Arctic has caused significant declines in total cover and thickness of sea ice in the polar basin and progressively earlier breakup in some areas. Inuit hunters in the areas of four polar bear populations in the eastern Canadian Arctic (including Western Hudson Bay) have reported seeing more bears near settlements during the open-water period in recent years. In a fifth ecological…
Recent trend reversals in arctic sea ice extents
Decreases in Arctic sea ice extents since late 1978, found through analysis of satellite data, have been widely reported and have added to concerns regarding global warming. This paper reports the results of regression analysis performed on the yearly averaged ice extents for the two time periods 1979–1990 and 1990–1999, and reveals two important findings: (1) for the Arctic as a whole, the decade of the 1990s witnessed a deceleration of the tren…
Variability of Arctic Sea Ice
A recently compiled 18-year record (1979 to 1996) of sea ice concentrations derived from four passive-microwave satellite instruments has allowed the quantification of a variety of measures of Arctic sea ice variability. Earlier maps generated using data through August 1987 have been updated to 18-year summaries of the annual range of sea ice distributions, the interannual variability of average monthly sea ice distributions, the frequency of sea…
