Abstract

Given the current threat of fast-paced global change, it has become urgent to understand the biogeochemical response of the Arctic environment to external forcing. The Canadian Arctic Shelf Exchange Study (CASES) is an interdisciplinary project put together by scientists from across Canada whose primary goal is to gain a better understanding of the Canadian Arctic environment. Objectives include evaluating issues such as the impact of climate change – extent of sea ice cover - on biological productivity and the carbon cycle. In order to predict the potential evolution of the complex Canadian Arctic system, the intricacies of its current dynamics must first be understood.
