"The dead redfish are still there, pop-eyed and with mouths agape. They are spread across the water and on top of the white ice floes that fill the water in front of the glacier.
Flying up and over the glacier, the team in the helicopter soon see a radical change in the three lakes dammed up by the ice along the edge of Narsap Sermia."
 
Nowhere on Earth are climate changes more visible than in the Arctic. But what do these changes mean for nature here, and for the people who live in this region and whose lives depend on its natural resources?
For the past decade the Greenland Climate Research Center has been intensely studying Nuup Kangerlua - 'The Fjord of Nuuk' - also known by its old Danish name Godthåbsfjorden or 'the fjord of good hope'. The effords at GCRC have made Nuup Kangerlua the most thoroughly investigated Arctic fjord in the world.
This book tells you about the scientific work that goes on at GCRC, focusing on highlights from the enormous pool of knowledge gathered during ten years of research in and around the fjord.
It deals with the invisible life forms that support the entire ecosystem of Nuup Kangerlua, the glaciers that determine the amounts of fish in the fjord, the role of sea ice as a carbon dioxide pump, and the lives and habits of roaming codfish, 30-ton whales, and astounding creatures of the seabed.
Welcome to the immense backyard of Greenland's capital, where GCRC and its dedicated researchers continue to seek new knowledge about the huge fjord system of Nuup Kangerlua.
