The Arctic Ocean has been undergoing dramatic changes in recent decades. Accompanied with these changes is the release of legacy contaminants that were transported and stored in the Arctic in the past, and emerging contaminants that are associated with resource development and marine transportation. The CRC research program in Arctic Environment Chemistry will examine the critical role of a changing Arctic marine cryosphere in affecting the fate and effects of mercury, crude oil and other contaminants in the Arctic ecosystem. The results will directly inform and improve policies and practices related to Northern development and adaptation.

近几十年来，北冰洋经历了巨大的变化。伴随这些变化的是过去在北极运输和储存的遗留污染物的释放，以及与资源开发和海洋运输有关的新污染物的释放。北极环境化学的CRC研究计划将研究北极海洋冰冻圈变化在影响北极生态系统中汞，原油和其他污染物的命运和影响方面的关键作用。研究结果将直接为北方发展和适应相关政策和做法提供信息并加以改进。
