Hope and Worry: Gendered Emotional Geographies of Climate Change in Three Vulnerable U.S. Communities

Slowing Climate Change in Vulnerable Regions

US Climate Change Policy Efforts

for Strategic Environmental Research (Mistra), focuses on future international policies in the area of climate change. Carried out by a consortium of universities, think tanks and non-governmental organisations in Europe, India and the US, the main aim of the programme is directed towards the use of economic incentives and instruments in the implementation of climate policies, and towards the d...

Novel communities from climate change.

Climate change is generating novel communities composed of new combinations of species. These result from different degrees of species adaptations to changing biotic and abiotic conditions, and from differential range shifts of species. To determine whether the responses of organisms are determined by particular species traits and how species interactions and community dynamics are likely to be...

Climate Change and US Electric Power

There has been intense recent interest in the vulnerability of the US electric power sector to the potentially adverse impacts of global warming. In this paper I use a three-phased approach to investigate the consequences of climate-driven temperature increases on electricity supply and demand within US states. Reduced-form long-run responses of electricity demand to temperature are estimated b...

Global change and marine communities: alien species and climate change.

Anthropogenic influences on the biosphere since the advent of the industrial age are increasingly causing global changes. Climatic change and the rising concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are ranking high in scientific and public agendas, and other components of global change are also frequently addressed, among which are the introductions of non indigenous species (NIS) in bio...
