The article addresses the ecological aspects of employing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in Arctic regions, where the use of such technologies significantly impacts the environment. It examines the potential ecological risks associated with the operation of UAVs in fragile Arctic ecosystems, including possible effects on wildlife, air and soil pollution, as well as the influence of noise and vibrations. Special attention is given to the advantages of UAVs in ecological monitoring, observing climate changes, controlling pollution, and studying ice conditions, all of which contribute to more sustainable management of Arctic natural resources. Recommendations are proposed to minimize negative impacts on the environment.
