Abstract
AMAP’s new assessment of the impacts of climate change on Snow, Water, Ice and Permafrost
in the Arctic (SWIPA) brings together the latest scientific knowledge about the changing state of
each component of the Arctic ‘cryosphere’. It examines how these changes will impact both the
Arctic as a whole and people living within the Arctic and elsewhere in the world.
