In the November issue of 'scape magazine Tromsø is one of the case studies under the title "Melting ice puts arctic city Tromsø on the map". The article by Joren Jacobs is based on interviews with Jarle Aarbakke (rector at the Tromsø University), Jan Gunnar Winther (director of the Norwegian Polar Institute) and Knut Eirik Dahl: "If you look at the most recent statistics from the Polar Institute, but certainly also from the United Nations, you will conclude that the icy Arctic landscape that shaped and created Tromsø now disappears. The city is literally relocated."
