Dr. Josefino C. Comiso: The Filipino Polar Explorer

Arctic sea ice loss has been an unmistakable sign of climate change for the last thirty-some years. The phenomenon has a severe impact on the Arctic region up to down south given Earth's interconnected system. It has caused faster global warming, rising sea levels and extreme natural disasters in recent years.

Undeniably, the study of the Polar Regions has become increasingly critical in understanding and mitigating the effects of climate change.
