A subtribo Pericopina (Lepidoptera: Erebidae: Arctiinae: Arctiini) compreende 37 gêneros com distribuição exclusivamente Neotropical. Estudos acerca da taxonomia e relações filogenéticas para esse grupo são escassos. Entre os gêneros arrolados em Pericopina, Dysschema Hübner, 1818 é o mais especioso. O gênero é representado por 146 nomes válidos e 88 espécies, conta com 12 sinonímias genéricas e não há um consenso sobre o número de espécies que o compõem, uma vez que há suspeita por parte de alguns autores (WATSON & GOODGER 1986; LAMAS & GRADOS 1996) de que alguns nomes atualmente válidos para

With the recent increase of interest in Arctic, the need rises for new tools for understanding the typical mechanisms of this very unique and so vulnerable area. The coast, which concentrates nearly all of the human activities, is in the front line and probably the most critical part of the system. Trough the past decades, mappings of the Arctics shorelines point out huge erosion rates and show the threat of a climate change upon the coast. Recent studies seem to link those tremendous moves to the annual thermal variations within the soil. However, the mechanisms of thermal abrasion that

For example, we can’t experience 150 years of global warming directly, but we can conceptualize it as an idea, or observe it as a graph.

They were single-species populations consisting of two distinct size modes, "Dwarf" and "Normal" charr, but with major differences both in size and relative numbers between the lakes.

The major phytoplankton nutrients were also measured. Early season chlorophyll α concentrations were low, and the increased light availability due to reduced ice cover in this area did not appear to enhance early season production.

Abstract:

The seasonal cycle of snow and sea ice is a fundamental feature of the Arctic climate system. In the Northern Hemisphere, about 55 million km2 of sea ice and snow undergo complete melt and freeze processes every year. Because snow and sea ice are much brighter (higher albedo) than the underlying surface, their presence reduces absorption of incoming solar energy at high latitudes. Therefore, changes of the sea-ice and snow cover have a large impact on the Arctic climate and possibly at lower latitudes. One of the most important determining factors of the seasonal snow and sea-ice cover is the

Rapid climate change in Arctic regions is of concern due to important feedbacks between the Arctic land surface and the global climate system. A large amount of organic carbon (C) is currently stored in Arctic soils; if decomposition is stimulated under warmer conditions additional release of CO2 could result in an accelerating feedback on global climate. The strength and direction of Arctic C cycle - climate feedbacks will depend on the growth response of vegetation; if plant growth increases some or all of the extra CO2 emissions may be offset.

Abstract:

<p> Arctic Grayling (<i>Thymallus arcticus</i>) are widely distributed on the Arctic Coastal Plain (ACP) of Alaska, and are one of the few upper level consumers in streams, but the trophic pathways and food resources supporting these fish are unknown. Grayling migrate each summer into small beaded streams, which are common across the landscape on the ACP, and appear to be crucial foraging grounds for these and other fishes. I investigated prey resources supporting different size classes of grayling in a beaded stream, Crea Creek, where petroleum development is being planned. The specific ob

Abstract:

The most puzzling aspect of the Canadian relationship with the Arctic region revolves around the split between the appearance of absent-minded governance, bordering on indifference toward the region, and the raging nationalism during moments of actual and perceived challenge toward the imagined “Canadian Arctic region.” Canada’s nationalistic relationship with the Arctic region is often discussed as a reactionary phenomenon to anti-American sentiments, national identity insecurities and government propaganda, but its complexity and evolution within Canadian society are rarely given much in-dep

Abstract:

Theories about how plate tectonics work have existed since the early 1900s, but have not been solidified until more modern times. Since the beginning theories as well as methods have evolved and given new insight of how the Earth works. How it is in constant change and its continents move along its surface. The evolution of the Arctic region have been relatively unknown for some time, but the evolution of new technology and climate change have made parts of the region more accessible for scientific research. This has made understanding of the evolution of the region over time easier. Methods h

Abstract:

The arctic region is undergoing the most rapid environmental change experienced on Earth, and the rate of change is expected to increase over the coming decades. Arctic coasts are particularly vulnerable because they lie at the interface between terrestrial systems dominated by permafrost and marine systems dominated by sea ice. An increased rise in sea level and degradation of sea-ice as predicted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in its most recent report and as observed recently in the Arctic will likely result in greater rates of coastal retreat. An increase in coastal erosi

Abstract:

During the Arctic summer when the anthropogenic influence is limited, the natural marine source of sulfur in the form of gas-phase dimethyl sulfide viz. DMS(g), is of great importance for cloud formation. The harsh environment of the Arctic makes it difficult to perform in situ measurements of DMS(g) and hence regional model simulations can serve as a complement to increase our understanding of DMS related processes in the Arctic. In this thesis a regional scale meteorological forecast model, extended with DMS(g) calculations, is used to provide a consistent three-dimensional time evolving pic

Abstract:

Operation of manned oil and gas installations in arctic locations is complicated and presents new challenges. One of the challenges is to maintain the safety of the crew, by obtaining adequate lifeboat systems for crew evacuation. This master thesis focuses on different methods for meeting this challenge. The weather and climate conditions in the Arctic are very different from the conditions we find in more southern oceans. Extreme temperatures, winds caused by polar lows, icing and sea ice presents new and difficult challenges which is demanding for the operation of lifeboats. Hazard identifi

Abstract:

The Arctic is warming approximately two time faster than the entire globe, producing considerable local environmental changes that not only affect the fragile Arctic ecosystem but cause also significant socio-economic impacts on the midlatitudes and influence global climate and ocean circulation. In this context the Arctic warm extremes are receiving a growing attention. Until now they have been studied mostly from a overall point of view, considering their mean characteristics and precursors, or focusing on single particularly intense events. This thesis work aims to classify them on t
