The Arctic, the northernmost regions on Earth, have been hit hard with climate change over the years. The Arctic, the northernmost regions on Earth, have been hit hard with climate change over the years. Using the ensemble of multi-model simulations, the team was able to assess the uncertainty in the changes in the extreme Arctic waves due to the uncertainty present in the five climate models used.
