Designing an index of structural vulnerability to climate change
Introduction Since climate change has been recognized as a dominant issue for world economy and policy, resources have been looked for financing mitigation as well as adaptation. Logically allocation criteria should be different for mitigation and adaptation. As for adaptation, the criteria should reflect the need of the countries and their capacity to effectively use the resources. The same is...
متن کاملArctic marine mammals and climate change: impacts and resilience.
Evolutionary selection has refined the life histories of seven species (three cetacean [narwhal, beluga, and bowhead whales], three pinniped [walrus, ringed, and bearded seals], and the polar bear) to spatial and temporal domains influenced by the seasonal extremes and variability of sea ice, temperature, and day length that define the Arctic. Recent changes in Arctic climate may challenge the ...
متن کاملClimate change and marine fisheries: Least developed countries top global index of vulnerability
Future impacts of climate change on marine fisheries have the potential to negatively influence a wide range of socio-economic factors, including food security, livelihoods and public health, and even to reshape development trajectories and spark transboundary conflict. Yet there is considerable variability in the vulnerability of countries around the world to these effects. We calculate a vuln...
متن کاملEffects of climate change on Arctic marine mammal health.
The lack of integrated long-term data on health, diseases, and toxicant effects in Arctic marine mammals severely limits our ability to predict the effects of climate change on marine mammal health. The overall health of an individual animal is the result of complex interactions among immune status, body condition, pathogens and their pathogenicity, toxicant exposure, and the various environmen...
