Climate Change and Effects on Vegetation in Veracruz, Mexico: an Approach Using Ecological Niche Modelling
According to the last report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, human activities are the main responsible for global warming due to the increase in the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases. This process is already causing changes in the geographical distribution of species as well as alterations in phenology. With this background, it is interesting to study the expected ...
متن کاملClimate Change Impact on Neotropical Social Wasps
Establishing a direct link between climate change and fluctuations in animal populations through long-term monitoring is difficult given the paucity of baseline data. We hypothesized that social wasps are sensitive to climatic variations, and thus studied the impact of ENSO events on social wasp populations in French Guiana. We noted that during the 2000 La Niña year there was a 77.1% decrease ...
متن کاملA Maximum Entropy/Ecological Niche Modeling Prediction of the Potential Distribution of Leischmaniasis under Climate Change
Leishmaniasis is a life-threatening disease caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania and is transmitted by the bite of several species of sand fly (subfamily Phlebotominae). Global climate change has the potential to alter the distribution of these insect vectors. Here I use maximum entropy (maxent) ecological niche modeling (ENM) and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(I...
متن کاملTracking a Medically Important Spider: Climate Change, Ecological Niche Modeling, and the Brown Recluse (Loxosceles reclusa)
Most spiders use venom to paralyze their prey and are commonly feared for their potential to cause injury to humans. In North America, one species in particular, Loxosceles reclusa (brown recluse spider, Sicariidae), causes the majority of necrotic wounds induced by the Araneae. However, its distributional limitations are poorly understood and, as a result, medical professionals routinely misdi...
متن کاملThe fate of the Arctic seaweed Fucus distichus under climate change: an ecological niche modeling approach.
Rising temperatures are predicted to melt all perennial ice cover in the Arctic by the end of this century, thus opening up suitable habitat for temperate and subarctic species. Canopy-forming seaweeds provide an ideal system to predict the potential impact of climate-change on rocky-shore ecosystems, given their direct dependence on temperature and their key role in the ecological system. Our ...
