The Arctic region is experiencing more rapid temperature changes than other regions worldwide, with continued warming at approximately 2-to 3-fold the global average (IPCC, 2018). Increased temperatures threaten livelihoods, increase morbidity, and increase mortality by increasing the frequency of extreme events such as storms and floods (Nilsson et al., 2013;Parkinson & Evengård, 2009;Seifollahi-Aghmiuni, Nockrach et al., 2019). Increased temperatures also cause changes in the properties and extent of wetlands through permafrost thaw and altered runoff and evapotranspiration patterns, leading to loss of ecosystem services (
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
