This course focuses on the effects of climate change on polar ecosystems and their associated biodiversity. It examines the physical and biological changes occurring in polar regions as a result of global warming and associated environmental shifts. Topics may include the melting of polar ice caps, altered ocean currents, changes in species distributions and abundance, phenological shifts, and the cascading effects of these changes on ecosystem functioning. Students may explore various climate change impact assessment methods, modeling approaches, and potential mitigation strategies.
