Climate change, wine, and conservation.

Climate change is expected to impact ecosystems directly, such as through shifting climatic controls on species ranges, and indirectly, for example through changes in human land use that may result in habitat loss. Shifting patterns of agricultural production in response to climate change have received little attention as a potential impact pathway for ecosystems. Wine grape production provides...

Conservation and climate change: the challenges ahead.

Climatic changes in the distant past were driven by natural causes, such as variations in the Earth’s orbit or the carbon dioxide (CO2) content of the atmosphere. Today, and even more so in the future, climatic changes have another driver as well: human activities (IPCC 1996). The natural greenhouse effect from clouds, water vapor, and CO2, primarily, is responsible for some 33◦ C of surface wa...
