Recent years have seen record changes in the Arctic and circumpolar North. Rapid ice loss leading to an unprecedented lack of sea ice in Norton Sound and the greater Bering Sea for two subsequent winters caused cascading impacts on the marine ecosystem and beyond. In this article, we reflect on the underlying causes leading to the urgent situation today, and possible next steps. We argue here that methodological reform is needed to understand the full magnitude of change currently underway in this region. By broadening our evidence base for understanding the present changes, we would be better positioned to detect changes and respond with what needs to be done in the current grave circumstances.

共同理解阿拉斯加的北极气候变化和紧迫性

近年来,北极和极地北极发生了创纪录的变化。迅速的冰损失导致诺顿湾和大白令海在随后的两个冬天前所未有地缺乏海冰,这对海洋生态系统及其他地区造成了连锁影响。在本文中,我们反思了导致今天紧急情况的根本原因,以及可能的后续步骤。我们在此认为,需要进行方法论改革以了解该地区目前正在发生的全部变化。通过拓宽我们理解当前变化的证据基础,我们将能够更好地发现变化并在当前严峻的情况下对需要做的事情做出反应。
