ABSTRACT: In recent years, the Arctic climate has changed dramatically. This paper sums up
the remarkable performance of climate change in the Arctic Circle by going deep
into the Arctic Circle, collecting climate data and comparing it with previous
years’ data and literature. The factors affecting climate change in the Arctic Circle
are discussed from three aspects: artificial factors, natural factors and potential
factors. The study finds out that the main factors that affect the Arctic climate
are the large amount of greenhouse gases emitted by human activities, the
warming of tropical ocean currents, and the potential eruption of solar flares.
