当前的气候变化对北半球，特别是北方和北极地区造成了重大的生物物理影响。温度上升和变化更大、永久冻土融化和积雪是在多个空间、时间和风险相关尺度上影响人类社会的主要危害。 MASON NorthLands 计算模拟模型的动机是基础科学和政策研究问题。初步结果表明，环境和土壤温度升高与可测量的社会影响相关的因果过程，是由气候变化对建筑环境的生物物理影响所介导的，就像在人类-人工-自然耦合系统（CHANS）中一样。
Current climate change causes significant biophysical effects in the Northern Hemisphere, especially in the Boreal and Arctic regions. Rising and more variable temperatures, permafrost thawing, and snow loading are major hazards affecting human societies on multiple spatial, temporal, and risk-related scales. The MASON NorthLands computational simulation model is motivated by fundamental science and policy research questions. Preliminary results demonstrate causal processes relating ambient and soil temperature increases to measurable social impacts, mediated by biophysical effects of climate change on the built environment, as in a coupled human-artificial-natural system (CHANS).
