TY - JOUR AU - Muhammad Umar Nasir , AU - Muhammad Salman , PY - 2024/12/31 Y2 - 2026/07/29 TI - IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON MARINE LIFE: A CASE STUDY OF ARCTIC OCEAN REGION JF - ` JA - ASSAJ VL - 2 IS - 4 SE - Articles DO - UR - https://www.assajournal.com/index.php/36/article/view/938 SP - 1551-1566 AB - <p><em>This study focuses on exploring the impact of climate change on marine environment of Arctic Ocean region. The Artic, also called as Earth’s climate barometer, has faced significant changes due to rising global temperature, resulting in increasing melting of ice and ocean acidification. The study analyzes changes in temperature of sea surface distribution of key marine species highlighting the vulnerability of Arctic environment. Changes in temperature of water have disrupted food chains, migration of fish and threatened the habitat of species. The research also focuses on how melting ice is affecting the world by increasing sea levels and changing oceanic flow. This study also focuses to understand the impact of climate change on biodiversity and explored the broader biological, geopolitical, and environmental effects of climate change in the Arctic Ocean by considering both short term and long-term changes. Using Ecological Systems Theory as a framework and employing a qualitative, explanatory research design, the study explores how various components of the Arctic ecosystem are interlinked and how climate-induced changes affect these connections. This study emphasizes the urgent need for strengthened global governance and targeted conservation strategies to protect the fragile Arctic marine environment.</em></p><p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong><em>: Climate Change impacts, marine ecosystem, Ocean acidification, biodiversity loss, Migration</em></p> ER -
