 note = {The natural system in the Arctic has been under rapid changes, such as warmer atmosphere, shrinking sea ice cover, deteriorating ice sheet and thawing permafrost for several decades. Various feedback mechanisms with the global system may accelerate the changes both in the Arctic and the global earth. The Arctic changes have been giving influences on local residents, while many nations have economic and political concerns with the Arctic. Hence, multidisciplinary approaches are encouraged so that the discernment gained from the Arctic research may activate decision-makers and also the global citizens. The Sixth International Symposium on Arctic Research, held online from March to April 2020, addressed the importance of interdisciplinary approach with special emphasis on research from the social sciences and humanities. This special issue collected papers which span many disciplines to identify changes in the Arctic environment and society, and to discuss possible future sustainable development.},
