lakes across the pan-Arctic region – the northern parts of Canada, Russia, Greenland, Scandinavia and Alaska – have either shrunk or dried up completely. Lakes make up between 20% and 40% of the Arctic lowlands.

Some have even suggested adding a third “…to Sea” in the motto to reflect the fact the country reaches high enough north to touch the Arctic Ocean as well. The story of Canadian geography unfolds in two directions: west to east and north to south. The more north you go, the colder...
The Diavik Stars of the Arctic: In October 2018, Diavik announced that three spectacular diamonds would be sold at auction: 1) "Vega of the Arctic", a 177.71-carat diamond, reported to be "one of the largest and most valuable gem-quality rough diamonds ever produced in Canada"; 2) ...
so now the once reliable yearly floodings stopped and the harvest in the lowlands are disrupted. The once reliable Nile river is a shadow of its former self, all the silt stays above the Aswan Dam rather than fertilizing the lower Nile. The U.S. southwest aquifers are being drawn down and...
The Arctic tundra is a relatively young and new type of biome and is especially sensitive to the impacts of global warming. However, little is known about how the Arctic flora was shaped over time. Here we investigate the origin and evolutionary dynamics of the Arctic flora by sampling 32 an...
哈得逊湾和北极低地（Arctic Lowlands）是加拿大地盾的一个盆地中未被淹没的部分。在五亿到四亿年前的奥陶纪和泥盆纪时期，沉积的石灰石和白云石覆盖了这个盆地，使它的地形变得平坦。后来的冰川压缩了盆地，当冰川开始融化时，海水入侵，白里泥便沉积在一些地方。因此低地地区多是由平坦和排水不良的泥沼和...
These materials are considered to have extensively covered the northern lowlands. Here, we show evidence that a lacustrine sedimentary residue within Hydraotes Chaos formed due to regional aquifer upwelling and ponding into an interior basin. Unlike the northern lowland counterparts, its sedimentary make...
