Increased global interest is a potential source of tensions between the need for exploration or exploitation, and the requirements of protection. This context calls for new data, knowledge and information vital for a better understanding of interactions between different systems, as well as developing awareness about the current and potential changes in the future. The objective of the book is to help develop a strategy of adaptation to climate change based on the knowledge and experience of the extremely effective mechanisms which for centuries made survival possible in this region.EnvironmentEnvironment, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U00009Environment.Environment, general.333.7Czarny Ryszard Mauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut892013BOOK9910299427703321The High North2532906UNINA
