Resilience and adaptive capacity of arctic marine systems under a changing climate (RACArctic)

Økt CO2 i atmosfæren har ført til rask oppvarming i Arktis, issmelting og økt CO2 i havet, hvilket fører til at havet blir surere (et fenomen som kalles forsuring). I RACArctic-prosjektet har naturvitere, økonomer og samfunnsvitere fra Japan, USA og Norge sammenlignet fremtidige klimaendringers e...
