An international team of research scientists has created a peer-reviewed
website, Arctic Report Card 2007, which tracks multiple changes in the
arctic environment. While the 2007 loss of summertime sea ice is the
most dramatic example, changes are also seen in the atmosphere, on land
and in the ocean, and as shifts in location and abundance of arctic
species.

The Report Card is organized by NOAA and will be updated annually. It is
a contribution to the international Arctic Monitoring and Assessment
Programme (AMAP) and the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF)
Programme.
