Arctic Regional Climate Models

2011
In this chapter, we provide an overview of current applications of regional climate models (RCMs) to the Arctic. There are increased applications of RCMs to present-day climate simulations and process parameterisations. Any advances in regional climate modelling must be based on analysis of physical processes in comparison with observations.

Syllidae (Polychaeta) from the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2010
A collection of over one hundred specimens of Syllidae (Polychaeta) from the Arctic and sub-Arctic regions has been examined and identified. The specimens were obtained from 26 stations in the Barents Sea, some Norwegian fiords and localities of the northern North Sea. A total of 21 species were identified; three species (Myrianida langerhansi (Gidholm,

How Caspian Region Can Help Arctic Region?

Journal of Advanced Research in Law and Economics, 2019
The research compares the problems of two strategically important regions for Russia-the Caspian region and the Arctic region. Despite the fact that there are some significant geographical and climate differences, the geopolitical situation in the regions is similar. There are almost identical risks in the development of these regions.

The Arctic Ocean Region

1990
Abstract Most Quaternary sediments in North America north of 45 ON post-date the last deglaciation. This volume looks at those extensive deposits from the standpoints of timing, cause, and mechanism of the wastage of North American ice during the last deglaciation and the accompanying environmental changes in the nonglaciated and ...

Russia’s Arctic Regions and Policies

2019
Russia’s Arctic has been integral to its development historically. If the attention paid to this region has waxed and waned in response to other geopolitical developments, the current growing global interest in the Arctic as a potential source of natural resources and as a possible shipping route has motivated Russia’s renewed focus on the Arctic. This

Polar Geography, 1977
Abstract The author discusses in general terms the concept of biogeographical regionalization of the Arctic, and particularly its zoogeographical regionalization, stressing the importance of considering landmasses and oceans as a single, interlinked complex.
