Improving the community-temperature index as a climate change indicator
Climate change indicators are tools to assess, visualize and communicate the impacts of climate change on species and communities. Indicators that can be applied to different taxa are particularly useful because they allow comparative analysis to identify which kinds of species are being more affected. A general prediction, supported by empirical data, is that the abundance of warm-adapted spec...
متن کاملInvestigation of Long Term Trend of Spatio-Temporal changes of Sea Surface Temperature in Oman Sea
Considering the vast application of sea surface temperature in climatic and oceanic investigations, this parameter was studied in Oman Sea from 1986 to 2015. The SST was surveyed using trend analysis and Global and local Moran’s I spatial autocorrelation. In trend analysis, the Mann-Kendall test was used to determine the trend of SST changes and the Sen's Estimator method was used to examine th...
متن کاملENVIRONMENTAL IMAGINARIES: Climate Change as an Object of Urban Governance
Over the last few years, Federal climate change policy has emerged as a crucial point of difference between the major political parties, creating uncertainty around Australia’s measures to meet its commitments under the Copenhagen Accord. The difference is grounded in perceptions not only of the scientific evidence for the phenomenon but, perhaps more importantly, of the economic implications o...
متن کاملThe challenge of long-term climate change.
Climate policy needs to address the multidecadal to centennial time scale of climate change. Although the realization of short-term targets is an important first step, to be effective climate policies need to be conceived as long-term programs that will achieve a gradual transition to an essentially emission-free economy on the time scale of a century. This requires a considerably broader spect...
متن کاملPhysiological Equivalent Temperature as Indicator for Impacts of Climate Change on Thermal Comfort of Humans
Using the measure of Physiologically Equivalent Temperature (PET) it is analysed how changes in the thermal environment can affect human well-being. Historical data used in this study have been assembled for the normal climate period 1961–1990 (CNTRL). Future conditions are calculated based on the period 2071–2100, for which simulated datasets are available, based on GCMs integrated with scenar...
