Climate warming and associated environmental changes are occurring at a rapid rate throughout much of the Arctic region. Terrestrial ecosystems in the Arctic are highly vulnerable to these changes because of their simplicity and high sensitivity. The effects of a warming environment are thus stronger and more profound in the Arctic than in ecosystems at lower latitudes.
