Population and main oil and gas production areas in the Arctic

Year: 2008 Author: Hugo Ahlenius, UNEP/GRID-Arendal
Description:
The Arctic represents one of the least populated areas in the world, with only sparse settlements and very few large cities and towns - in comparison with e.g. continental Europe. The largest cities are in Northwest Russia, and Reykjavik is the only national capital in the Arctic. The extraction of natural resources has emerge as a main interest and priority in the Arctic region, and this may cause increases and shifts in population.
