Evidences of Impacts of Climate Change on Mediterranean Biota
We report here the data set entitled " Impacts of climate change on organisms in the Mediterranean Sea, " which is the basis for the analysis of impacts of climate change on marine organisms presented by Marbà et al. (2015a). (Marbà et al., 2015b). In this data set we compiled evidence of warming on Mediterranean Sea biota derived from published reports. These were derived from a broad literatu...
متن کاملExperimental assessment of cumulative temperature and UV-B radiation effects on Mediterranean plankton metabolism
The Mediterranean Sea is a vulnerable region for climate change, warming at higher rates compare to the global ocean. Warming leads to increased stratification of the water column and enhanced the oligotrophic nature of the Mediterranean Sea. The oligotrophic waters are already highly transparent, however, exposure of Mediterranean plankton to ultraviolet radiation (UV-B and UV-A) may increase ...
متن کاملClimate Change and Intertidal Wetlands
Intertidal wetlands are recognised for the provision of a range of valued ecosystem services. The two major categories of intertidal wetlands discussed in this contribution are saltmarshes and mangrove forests. Intertidal wetlands are under threat from a range of anthropogenic causes, some site-specific, others acting globally. Globally acting factors include climate change and its driving caus...
متن کاملHigh Variability Is a Defining Component of Mediterranean-Climate Rivers and Their Biota
Variability in flow as a result of seasonal precipitation patterns is a defining element of streams and rivers in Mediterranean-climate regions of the world and strongly influences the biota of these unique systems. Mediterranean-climate areas include the Mediterranean Basin and parts of Australia, California, Chile, and South Africa. Mediterranean streams and rivers can experience wet winters ...
متن کاملThe Analysis and modeling of widespread anomalies of rainfall in entire West of Iran in relation with the behaviors of Mediterranean Pressure centers
Climate control centers in each area are diverse and understanding how they relate to the atmospheric components of the Earth's surface contribute to prediction of climate fluctuations. In this study, by using Pearson's correlation and multivariate regression in a thirty-year period (1961-2010), the relationship between widespread rainfall anomalies in entire of Iran west with temperature a...
