This work draws together current research on the origins and
effects of pollutants in the Artic area and the implications for
arctic ecology and fauna as well as more far-reaching global
change. Topics discussed include: toxic substances in the food
chain; acids and heavy metals in snow and ice and the possible
consequences to arctic ecology following snow melt; the Antarctic
ozone "hole"; climate change and its effect on the northern
hemisphere; climate and global sea levels; exploitation of minerals
and fossil fuels; and future impacts from industrialization of the
North. The book should be useful to all environmental scientists,
atmospheric chemists, pollution specialists, ecologists,
conservationists, climatologists, meteorologists and government and
industrial departments concerned with environmental impact studies
and pollution control.
