Since their appearance on Earth, humans and their ancestors have impacted their surroundings. However, they've affected some of these environments more severely than others. Readers will learn how human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and hunting, have directly and indirectly impacted tundra environments for thousands of years. Fact boxes and sidebars provide readers with supplementary information about the subject matter, while full-color photographs show the damaging effects of human activities on tundra environments.

Changing Cold Environments; Implications for Global Climate Change is a comprehensive overview of the changing nature of the physical attributes of Canada's cold environments and the implications of these changes to cold environments on a global scale. The book places particular emphasis on the broader environmental science and sustainability issues that are of increasing concern to all cold regions if present global climate trends continue. Clearly structured throughout, the book focuses on those elements of Canada's cold environments that will be most affected by global climate change – namely, the tundra, sub-arctic and boreal forest regions of northern Canada, and the high mid-latitude mountains of western Canada. Implications are considered for similar environments around the world resulting in a timely text suitable for second and third year undergraduates in the environmental or earth sciences courses.

What would happen if the frozen Arctic completely melted? Certain plants and animals rely on the dry and cold tundra environments. The tundra habitat includes both the flat regions of the Arctic and the alpine heights of mountains. This habitat acts as a source of food and a climate suitable for the plants and animals that live there. Learn about the geography and resources of tundra habitats as well as how animals and people have adapted to and changed tundra environments. Explore this habitat's future and what people can do to help keep it safe.

Tundra biomes are known for being frigid, with brief summers and few trees. Despite this harsh environment, tundra biomes are home to many different species of plants and animals. Readers will learn about the highly adapted creatures, such as arctic foxes and musk oxen, living in tundra habitats around the world. Fact boxes provide readers with fun information not covered in the main text, and full-color photographs grab their attention.

Take a walk in the tundra in the summer and you will discover a biome where the sun never sets, but during the cold winter, the sun may not shine for months. What animals and plants could survive in such a place? In this eye-opening book, readers will learn why the tundra biome can support such a surprising variety of plants and wildlife, despite its harsh conditions. From huge polar bears hunting silently on the ice to caribou herds migrating to warmer pastures, every living thing plays a part in the biome community.

Tundra ecosystems are seriously affected by global climate change. Understanding tundra history and post-glacial development may enhance the ability of biologists to anticipate biotic responses to current environmental changes. In this book, the authors analyse changes which have occurred in a vegetative cover and aboveground fauna of vertebrates at Yamal peninsula, one of the greatest plains on the globe. The authors also evaluate pedogenetic processes, soil nutrient status and plant distribution along an elevation gradient in the alpine tundra in the western Italian Alps. In addition, treeline ecotone is a belt of transition from forest vegetation to a non-forest one, which allow the monitoring of climate change. In this book, carbon deposition on the forests of two treeline ecotones is studied. Some of the current emerging theories, models and recent empirical evidence for the dynamics of these reciprocal interactions between climate and terrestrial microbial communities are also reviewed, with particular attention to biogeochemical and ecological perspectives.

The European Arctic and Alpine regions are experiencing large environmental changes. These changes may have socio-economic effects if the changes affect the bioproduction, which form the basis for the marine and terrestrial food chains. This uniquely multidisciplinary book presents the various aspects of contemporary environmental changes in Arctic and Alpine Regions.
