The International Arctic Research Center is showing its stripes with a bold 40-foot-long
hallway installation. The myriad of red and blue vertical bands makes a rainbow-like
bar code representing Arctic temperatures from 1900 to 2021. The trend in the Arctic
is remarkable. Every year since 1995 shows red, meaning that annual temperatures have
been above average for nearly three decades.
