Arctic warming negatively affects the foraging and breeding ecology of native Arctic mammals, such as Arctic foxes or Arctic reindeer. [91] In July 2019, 200 Svalbard reindeer were found starved to death apparently due to low precipitation related to climate change. [92] This was only one episode in the long-term decline of the species.

Researchers say the tundra’s changes are driven by thawing permafrost and emissions from wildfires
500 million years of climate change Ice core data for the past 400,000 years, with the present at right. Note length of glacial cycles averages ~100,000 years. Blue curve is temperature, green curve is CO 2, and red curve is windblown glacial dust (loess). Scale: Millions of years before present, earlier dates approximate.
A result of these observations is a thorough record of sea-ice extent in the Arctic since 1979; the decreasing extent seen in this record (NASA Archived February 21, 2011, at the Wayback Machine, NSIDC), and its possible link to anthropogenic global warming, has helped increase interest in the Arctic in recent years. Today's satellite ...
The Arctic is warming much faster than previously thought, according to a new study, an extremely worrisome finding that underscores the challenges ahead for limiting climate change and keeping ...
The AP reports that about 54 million years ago mammals, humans' earliest primate ancestor included, "shriveled a bit in size at least twice in Earth's history when temperatures spiked."
