Default An early arctic spring

A study published in today's issue of Current Biology has shown a surprising change in the arrival of spring. Their ten years of research has shown that spring in the High Arctic has been commencing weeks earlier than in the mid 1990s.

The team of Danish and American researchers have spent a decade from 1996-2005 following the habits of twenty one species; six plants, twelve insects and three birds. All of this was done in a 19 square kilometre area near Zackenberg in Greenland.
