ABSTRACT
A thorough discussion cum review has been made on the recent advances in seismo-geophysical studies so far conducted for the Arctic region in different tectonic environs to understand the efficacies of various geophysical and seismological tools. The present review allow us to peep inside the sub-surface of the Arctic region by analysing geophysical mapping and assimilated shallow and deeper structures beneath the region. It is observed that despite hostile climatic and terrain conditions, seismo-geophysical studies achieved several significant breakthroughs in understanding the climate-induced hydro-geophysical-cryospheric conditions that have played a responsible role in impacting the Arctic environment, which is closely related to seismo-geophysical processes. Our detailed highlights on several issues in the chapter can help to enrich our understanding about the polar region for adopting sustainable development strategy for the region in future.
