Abstract: Complex ecosystems characterize the Arctic Region, which experiences rapid environmental changes due to climate change. These changes are happening spatially as much as temporally. Spatiotemporal interactive three-dimensional visualization of environmental phenomena is eye-catching, while creating the foundations for the rapid understanding of Arctic complexity. The Arctic is a circumpolar region; cylinders seem suitable visual media for related data. In this case study, the visualization of anomalies of the sea ice illustrates abnormal changes, helping the viewer/user to focus on that filtered information rather than becoming lost in a multitude of information. A holistic view of dynamic environmental changes in a stand-alone visual could impact the quick understanding, response and policymaking regarding the visualized phenomena.
