366W0264_climate change_forage.jpg Tracks left by foraging Reindeer in Northern Finland in winter near Saariselka. The future for this Arctic species is looking uncertain. Increased winter rain falling on snow percolates down and creates a freezing layer between snow and soil restricting their food supply. Higher summer temperatures will adversely effect them as they have few sweat glands and keep their heavy pelt in summer. Studies have shown that the warmer the winter prior to the rut the fewer live calves are born the following year. Reindeer or Caribou are already declining across much of the Arctic.

366W9774_climate change_cold.jpg A farmstead in the Urho Kehkkosen National Park near Saariselka Northern Finland. Climate change has already raised average temperatures by 0.7 oC over the last century. Winters are getting both warmer and wetter and in Southern Finland winters are becoming increasingly snow free. As permafrost melts across the Arctic huge quantities of carbon dioxide and methane could be released leading to even further warming. Such iconic winter scenes could in a relatively short space of time become a thing of the past.
