Abstract

A review of some major advances in studies of Arctic climate change in the last decade is presented. Mechanisms of positive feedbacks leading to accelerated climate changes in the northern high latitudes are considered. Some recently popular hypotheses of the rapid Arctic climate change that failed when confronted with observed climate changes are exemplified. Urgent problems regarding Arctic climate change are formulated.

现代北极气候研究：进展，观念转变和迫切问题

摘要

本文介绍了过去十年中北极气候变化研究的一些重大进展。考虑了导致北部高纬度地区气候变化加速的正反馈机制。举例说明了一些近期流行的关于北极快速气候变化的假设，这些假设在面对观测到的气候变化时均告失败。提出了有关北极气候变化的紧急问题。
