The Nordic Centre of Excellence CRAICC (CryosphereâAtmosphere Interactions
in a Changing Arctic Climate), funded by NordForsk in the years 2011â2016,
is the largest joint Nordic research and innovation initiative to date,
aiming to strengthen research and innovation regarding climate change issues
in the Nordic region. CRAICC gathered more than 100Â scientists from all
Nordic countries in a virtual centre with the objectives of identifying and
quantifying the major processes controlling Arctic warming and related feedback
mechanisms, outlining strategies to mitigate Arctic warming, and developing
Nordic Earth system modelling with a focus on short-lived climate
forcers (SLCFs), including natural and anthropogenic aerosols.
The outcome of CRAICC is reflected in more than 150Â peer-reviewed scientific
publications, most of which are in the CRAICC special issue of the journal
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics. This paper presents an overview
of the main scientific topics investigated in the centre and provides the
reader with a state-of-the-art comprehensive summary of what has been achieved in
CRAICC with links to the particular publications for further detail. Faced
with a vast amount of scientific discovery, we do not claim to completely
summarize the results from CRAICC within this paper, but rather
concentrate here on the main results which are related to feedback loops in
climate changeâcryosphere interactions that affect Arctic amplification.</p
