Sport and climate change—how will climate change affect sport?

Will climate change affect insect pheromonal communication?

Understanding how climate change will affect species interactions is a challenge for all branches of ecology. We have only limited understanding of how increasing temperature and atmospheric CO2 and O3 levels will affect pheromone-mediated communication among insects. Based on the existing literature, we suggest that the entire process of pheromonal communication, from production to behavioural...

How Will Climate Change Affect Plants and Animals in Washington?

Climate change is expected to cause significant changes in plant and animal distributions and communities, and may threaten the some of the region’s iconic species. The timing of biological events, such as spring budburst and migration, will shift for many species. Sea level rise is projected to displace coastal habitats and the species that depend on them. Ocean acidification will negatively i...

Will Climate Change Affect Outbreak Patterns of Planthoppers in Bangladesh?

Recently, planthoppers outbreaks have intensified across Asia resulting in heavy rice yield losses. The problem has been widely reported as being induced by insecticides while other factors such as global warming that could be potential drivers have been neglected. Here, we speculate that global warming may increase outbreak risk of brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stål.). We present data ...

How Will Climate Change Policies Affect Domestic Manufacturing?

The pollution haven hypothesis suggests that unilateral environmental regulation could cause adverse “competitiveness” impacts on domestic manufacturers as they lose market share to foreign competitors and relocate production activity – and emissions – to unregulated economies. This is particularly troubling in the case of mitigating climate change, a global pollution externality, where there a...
