The Arctic Report Card is a yearly report released by NOAA’s Climate Program Office that tracks the Arctic atmosphere, sea ice, biology, ocean, land and Greenland. The report card provides clear, reliable and concise information on recent observations of environmental conditions in the Arctic, relative to historical time series records.
