The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) released the Arctic Report Card 2015, warning the human race of Arctic warming, which reached 2.3 degrees Fahrenheit above average, the hottest recorded since 1900.

Located in the northernmost regions of Earth, the Arctic region includes Canada, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Russia, Sweden and parts of Alaska, reported Tech Times.

"Warming is happening more than twice as fast in the Arctic than anywhere else in the world. We know this is due to climate change and its impacts are creating major challenges for Arctic communities.... We also know what happens in the Arctic doesn't stay in the Arctic," said Rick Spinrad, NOAA chief scientist, according to AFP.

The increase in temperature has affected species like walruses and subarctic fishes.

Walruses, which are known to hit the sea ice for hunting or mating, were forced to move inland into northwest Alaska, as recorded by scientists via aerial observation. This resulted in overcrowding and food shortage for the marine mammal.

Subarctic fishes are also migrating north into Arctic waters, which was impossible before due to colder temperatures. This migration has made the fishes more accessible to predators.

"Now in its 10th year, the Arctic Report Card is a key tool to understanding changes in the Arctic and how those changes may affect communities, businesses and people around the world," adds Spinrad, according to International Business Times.
