These shifting lines are only made murkier by the threat of global climate change. In the Arctic Ocean, the consequences of Earth's warming trend are most immediately observable in the multi-year and perennial ice that has begun to melt, which threatens ice-dependent microorganisms and, eventually, will disrupt all of Arctic life and raise sea levels globally. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn\u003cem\u003e The Arctic: What Everyone Needs to Know\u003c\/em\u003e(R), Klaus Dodds and Mark Nuttall offer concise answers to the myriad questions that arise when looking at the circumpolar North. They focus on its peoples, politics, environment, resource development, and conservation to provide critical information about how changes there can, and will, affect our entire globe and all of its inhabitants. Dodds and Nuttall explore how the Arctic's importance has grown over time, the region's role during the Cold War, indigenous communities and their history, and the past and future of the Arctic's governance, among other crucial topics.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKlaus Dodds \u003c\/strong\u003eis Professor of Geopolitics at Royal Holloway, University of London and author of \u003cem\u003eAntarctica: A Very Short Introduction\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMark Nuttall\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor and Henry Marshall Tory Chair of Anthropology at the University of Alberta.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 272\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.8 x 8.2 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 20, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42135498915975,"sku":"9780190649807","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/W4EvvX-1_d9780190649807.webp?v=1781199366","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/the-arctic-what-everyone-needs-to-knowar-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
