Arctic Climate Change, Economy and Society (ACCESS)

Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,

The Arctic is engaged in a deep climatic evolution. This evolution is quite predictable at short (year) and longer scales (several decades), but it is the decadal intermediate scale that is the most difficult to predict. This is because the natural variability of the system is large and dominant at this scale, and the system is highly non linear due to positive and negative feedback between sea ic...
