OCR A Level: Carbon and Water Arctic Tundra Case Study.

An 8 page case study revision booklet covering the Arctic Tundra Case Study. Fully editable version for easy adaptation to your needs and a ready to go printable PDF version. Aligned with the Yellow course textbook.

Covers OCR A-Level Geography Spec Point 2.a, Arctic Tundra water and carbon cycles, including rates of flow, distinct stores, physical and human factors, seasonal changes, and the oil & gas industry’s impact on both cycles.

Ready-to-use case study booklet with real detail packed with specific place references (Prudhoe Bay, North Slope, ANWR, Trans-Alaskan Pipeline) and data (1600 GT permafrost carbon store, NPP figures, precipitation totals) so students can build evidence-rich exam answers.

Explains key feedback loops and management strategies, clearly breaks down positive and negative feedback (permafrost thaw → methane release vs. warming → increased plant growth) and real-world management techniques (stilts, gravel beds, insulation), giving students the conceptual depth examiners reward. Includes exam questions, ideal for independent revision or in-class test prep. A blank summary grid mapped to all six sub-topics lets students consolidate their own notes, making it perfect for active revision rather than passive reading.
