Abstract
Scientific research and exploration above the Arctic Circle (66°30′) have led to intense interest in furthering our understanding of characteristic weather patterns, meteorological phenomena, environmental parameters and the biota, particularly flora and fauna of rare or endangered species and their mechanisms of adaptation to perpetual cold, dry and windswept Arctic habitats. A variety of international interests in the Arctic have led to the development of arctic research stations in seven countries: Canada, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden, USSR, and the United States; all having national boundaries extending above the Arctic Circle. Information is presented on 16 scientific research stations.
