    The fact that the Arctic*climate*is showing signs of distress isn't
    new, given that the region has been warming at twice the rate of the
    rest of the world, with sweeping impacts from sea ice melt to
    potential changes in weather patterns across North*America and Europe.
    However, the conditions in the area that serves as the Northern
    Hemisphere's freezer stand out even against the backdrop of
    long-term climate change and short-term weather patterns, which can
    be highly variable. ... last fall and winter were also "extremely
    warm" compared to normal, making this late-year spike stand out even
    more. "It is kind of unusual to have this second go around of this,"
    he said.
    "There are some pretty crazy things going on in the Arctic right
    now, and we're still trying to figure it all out."

*(video) Geopolitics of the Arctic 
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dV67yJHoPvw>*

    BAKU - The Arctic covers roughly 14 million square kilometers of
    water and solid ice. It’s almost the size of Antarctica. For most of
    its part, the region is inhospitable. In the summer, the weather can
    rise above the melting point, yet, in the winter, it can plunge down
    to minus 45 degrees Celsius. ..
    This situation, however, is not to last. In the coming decades,
    climate change will make the Arctic passages and resources become
    more accessible. Given the abundance of resources and critical trade
    routes, it should come as no surprise that the Arctic will turn into
    a new geopolitical
    flashpoint...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dV67yJHoPvw
