What is another word for polar amplification?
Pronunciation: [pˈə͡ʊləɹ ˌamplɪfɪkˈe͡ɪʃən] (IPA) 
Polar amplification is a phenomenon where the polar regions experience a greater rate of temperature increase compared to the rest of the planet. It is caused by various factors such as feedback mechanisms, radiative forcing, and ice-albedo feedback. Synonyms for polar amplification include Arctic amplification, high-latitude warming, and polar warming. These terms are used interchangeably in climate science to describe the effects of global warming in the polar regions. The consequences of polar amplification are severe, including sea-level rise, melting glaciers, loss of habitat for polar animals, and changes in weather patterns. Understanding and addressing polar amplification is crucial for mitigating global warming and saving the planet.
