The Arctic Resilience Report, released last Friday, 25 November, has captured worldwide attention. The report identifies 19 tipping points that can and have occurred in Arctic marine, freshwater, and terrestrial ecosystems. These regime shifts affect the stability of the climate and landscape, plant and animal species’ ability to survive, and indigenous peoples’ subsistence and ways of life. “This ground-breaking report, based on direct evidence from case studies across the circumpolar Arctic, is an unprecedented effort to gain insight from what is happening on the ground in the region’s social-ecological systems,” said Joel Clement, one of the project’s co-chairs.
