The increase in temperature is causing many changes to the artic tundras ecosystems.
There are many species that live in the artic tundra, animals like: polar bears, gray wolves, and artic fox. Because of the increase in tempartures many animals from the south, like the red fox, are migrating into the artic tundras. Therefore, the artic fox and the red fox are competing for food and territory. For that reason, the impact that this will have in the artic fox is unknown.
The main concern is that the artic tundra is actually contributing to global warming in the Earth. The permafrost at the artic tundra is melting, for that reason, the dead plants are decomposing and realeasing CO2 into the atmoshpere.
