Up to seven times the global average

Over the past 20 years the temperature in the northeastern part of Svalbard has increased by five degrees Celsius.


“The northern Barents Sea region is warming at a rate that is 2 to 2½ times as fast as the average temperature increase in the Arctic, and 5 to 7 times the global average,” says Isaksen, the results show the highest temperature increase observed so far, no other place on the planet seems to be warming faster than the northern Barents Sea.

 

More extreme weather

The exceptional warming can lead to more extreme weather in North America and Europe, and as far away as Asia.

This does not bode well for Climate Change in general.  The area in the Arctic is very sensitive.
