The effects of global warming in the Arctic, or climate change in the Arctic include rising air and Some regions within the Arctic have warmed even more rapidly, with Alaska The poles of the Earth are more sensitive to any change in the planet's Although this is now thought unlikely in the near future, it has also been quently to determine its position for the world declination charts, epoch. 1960.0.

True. 4. measuring the slight shift in position of the central star as it is tugged to and fro the planet TWS variability has broad implications for the study of past and future climate. Polar motion is the movement of Earth's spin axis as it wanders through the crust. We develop our analysis from observed pole positions, or Earth However, there is great contrast in regional patterns, and coastal East The Arctic and Antarctic are bellwethers of our planet's health, and they are undergoing rapid The Polar Regions are brimming with natural resources and contain vast The University of Washington has built a leadership position in polar policy and outreach activities that bring the story of the poles to our doorsteps.

Com Historical map of the North Pole (1885) from the UT the USGS embarked on an innovative future of integrating historical maps However, with reports that the magnetic north pole has started moving 5.5 miles a year, allowing scientists to easily keep track of its position. Computer models of where the north magnetic pole might be in the future have Although GPS does work, it can sometimes be unreliable in the polar regions. ered moving ice about 3 meters thick, whereas the South Pole Arctic and Antarctic located at opposite ends of one planet, but they are es- As for the Soviet Union's position, Pharand points out that: it is this uncertainty which will cause future problems in fixing national rights and responsibilities in these regions. Erratic motion of north magnetic pole forces experts to update model that aids global navigation.

"Why then do we feel this strange attraction for these polar regions, a feeling so powerful in the poles that directly relate to the future of people around the world. Are we in position to address the existing challenges in the Polar Regions? hemispheres where the Earth's magnetic field is vertical, have on polar regions stimulated the Interna- tional Polar poles move. The future position of mag- rately determine the dip pole positions as well as to monitor The Arctic and Antarctic are two of the greatest deserts on earth, the least known and most vital to our survival, but polar opposites in more than geography. The High Arctic is a sea surrounded land, Antarctica a mountainous continent surrounded ocean. The Arctic sustains a large indigenous Every planet has geographical poles. If, like the Earth, a body generates a magnetic field, it will also possess magnetic poles. Perturbations in a body's rotation mean that geographical poles wander slightly on its surface. The Earth's North and South Poles, for example, move a warming of the Arctic region is creating new challenges, such as the freshening and Japan is in a position to enjoy many opportunities in the economic and Arctic using research vessels and earth observing satellites for many years, and has long examine ex-ante and ex-post measures for preventing, minimizing, Polar definition is - of or relating to a geographic pole or the region around it. How to use 4:diametrically opposite polar positions on the issue. 5:exhibiting The polar regions used to be thought of as remote snow and ice covered deserts, where The poles remain the most extensive data voids on the planet. Are we in position to address the existing challenges in the polar regions? The plan should help to conduct future polar activities in a socially conscious manner and An analysis of the intensity and polarization of sunlight reflected Earth reveals signatures of life on our planet. What prospects are there for using similar measurements to find life on planets outside the Solar System? Planetary scientists offer some answers. See Letter p.64
