The observed changes in ice (sea ice, glacial ice, and permafrost) are increasing freshwater inputs into the Arctic Ocean and adjacent seas. These changes are ubiquitous throughout the system, affecting all levels of ecosystem services, Inuit traditional use of marine areas, and global pressure to increase development in the Arctic. Changes in the Arctic also affect processes at lower latitudes, including connections to extreme weather, floods, droughts, and climate variability via the polar vortex, sea level rise, and global ocean circulation through export of fresh water to the deep-water convection areas of the North Atlantic. The UM CERC program will generate transformative knowledge, allowing policy makers, communities, industry, and co-management groups to create informed sustainable development, adaptation, and mitigation strategies required to address both the unprecedented challenges and opportunities of the opening of Canada's `third ocean'.

观测到的冰（海冰、冰川冰和永久冻土）的变化正在增加流入北冰洋和邻近海域的淡水。这些变化在整个系统中无处不在，影响到各级生态系统服务，因纽特人对海洋区域的传统使用，以及增加北极开发的全球压力。北极的变化也影响到低纬度地区的过程，包括通过极地涡旋、海平面上升和通过淡水输出到北大西洋深水对流区的全球海洋环流与极端天气、洪水、干旱和气候变异的联系。UM CERC计划将产生变革性的知识，使决策者，社区，行业和共同管理团体能够创建应对加拿大“第三大洋”开放的前所未有的挑战和机遇所需的知情可持续发展，适应和缓解战略。
