The abrupt collapse of the Bering Sea snow crab stock can be explained by rapid borealization that is >98% likely to have been human induced. Strongly boreal conditions are ~200 times more likely now (at 1.0–1.5 °C of warming) than in the pre-industrial climate, while strongly Arctic conditions are now expected in only 8% of years. Stakeholders should accelerate adaptation planning for the complete loss of Arctic characteristics in traditional fishing grounds.

人类引起的北化导致白令海雪蟹崩溃

白令海雪蟹种群的突然崩溃可以用快速北化来解释，而快速北化有 >98% 可能是人类引起的。现在，出现强烈北方气候条件的可能性（升温 1.0-1.5°C）比工业化前气候高约 200 倍，而目前预计只有 8% 的年份出现强烈北极气候条件。利益相关者应加快针对传统渔场完全丧失北极特征的适应规划。
