… but climate change indicators grow apace
Record amounts of the Arctic Ocean failed to freeze during the past winter, new figures show, spelling disaster for wildlife and strengthening concerns that the region is locked into a destructive cycle of irreversible climate change. Those wishing to deny global warming are increasingly faced by compelling evidence. Satellite measurements show the area covered by Arctic winter sea ice reached ...
متن کاملPlant Pathogens as Indicators of Climate Change
Plant disease risk is strongly influenced by environmental conditions [1]. While some animal hosts may provide their pathogens with a consistent range of body temperatures, plant pathogens are generally much more exposed to the elements. Plant disease will tend to respond to climate change, though a number of interactions take place among host, pathogen, potential vectors. In some cases, the ac...
متن کاملClimate Change or Land Use Dynamics: Do We Know What Climate Change Indicators Indicate?
Different components of global change can have interacting effects on biodiversity and this may influence our ability to detect the specific consequences of climate change through biodiversity indicators. Here, we analyze whether climate change indicators can be affected by land use dynamics that are not directly determined by climate change. To this aim, we analyzed three community-level indic...
متن کاملIndicators of the Impact of Climate Change on Migratory Species
The Bonn Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals adopted a Resolution in 2005 recognising the impacts of climate change on migratory species. It called on Contracting Parties to undertake more research to improve our understanding of these impacts and to implement adaptation measures to reduce foreseeable adverse effects. Given the large diversity of taxa and species...
متن کاملSentinel Symptoms of Climate Change: Indicators for Related Health Effects
Greenhouse gas emissions are widely acknowledged to be contributing to climate change–related health effects that vary by location, and are expected to continue doing so for many years, even if substantial emission cuts occur. A workgroup of the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists has identified a set of indicators that it says will allow national and local officials in the United ...
