Human‐induced changes to global climate have become increasingly difficult to ignore in recent years. As the frequency and severity of extreme weather events increases, the impacts on both natural and human systems are becoming difficult to manage with the current policies. In Canada, one of the most vulnerable regions to climate change is the Arctic, where temperatures are rising at a rate two to three times that of the global average. Warmer seasonal temperatures have led to melting permafrost and increased variability in sea ice conditions, which has contributed to a rise in coastal erosion. The ongoing resilience of Arctic communities will depend heavily on their ability to implement successful long‐term adaptation policies. The development and implementation of any action on climate change adaptation should involve collaboration with local stakeholders in order to reflect the views and experience of those living in the Arctic.

加拿大北极地区的气候变化适应力：面对不断变化的景观需要合作

近年来，人为引起的全球气候变化变得越来越难以忽视。随着极端天气事件的频率和严重性增加，使用当前的政策对自然和人类系统的影响变得越来越难以管理。在加拿大，气候变化最脆弱的地区之一是北极，那里的温度上升速度是全球平均水平的两到三倍。温暖的季节性温度导致永久冻土融化，海冰条件的可变性增加，导致海岸侵蚀加剧。北极社区持续的复原力将在很大程度上取决于其实施成功的长期适应政策的能力。
