Paul Hebert, CyberNatural Software


This information about climate in the polar region of Canada includes the causes of climate and the present, past, and future climate of the area. Sun, atmosphere, oceans, ice, and land are the factors discussed in the causes of climate. The past climate information includes how past climate is studied and the climate in recent times, shallow time, and deep time as well as a section on the causes of ice ages. The deep time section contains a link to a climatological map for each period in geologic history. The climate future section offers information on both global warming and the ozone hole. A polar weather link shows the current conditions at some of the Canadian polar weather stations.
