Comparative analysis of climate variability and processes in polar regions, highlighting critical implications for climate studies.
Some selected processes which help to shape the weather and climate of the polar regions are briefly reviewed. Emphasis is placed on the short time scales (seasons to decades) of climate variability in which sea ice and snow demand the principal attention. The contrasting nature of the two polar regions provides an ideal natural geophysical laboratory in which comparative climate studies can be conducted and climate models can be tested.
