Arctic coastal biodiversity is increasingly threatened by climate change and human activities. The effects remain poorly understood due to limited baseline data and sparse long-term monitoring and current research is mostly localised, failing to capture pan-Arctic patterns. 

In a new article a broad scan on the Arctic coast is carried out, drawing attention to he need for better-coordinated international efforts, standardised long-term observations, and experiments to understand ecological changes, species range shifts, and anthropogenic impacts. These steps are crucial for developing effective adaptation and mitigation strategies.
