The Arctic region is changing due to glacial melt, affecting biodiversity. The study looked at how melting glaciers impact Arctic ecosystems. The researchers found that as glaciers melt, it affects the plants and animals living in the area. This feedback loop can lead to changes in the Arctic's biodiversity.
