Biological consequences of global warming
The prospect that increases in atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases will have measurable effects on the earth’s climate over the next few decades has attracted a vast research effort. Climatologists have faced two main challenges. The first has been to distinguish the signal of human-induced climate change from the noise of interannual and decadal natural variability. The second has b...
متن کاملGlobal warming and changes in drought
17 How is drought changing as the climate changes? Several recent papers in the scientific literature have focused on this question but the answer remains unclear. Here we attempt to understand this socially and ecologically relevant topic. We discuss what the expectations for changes in drought should be, and thus the prospects for the future, and we provide some recommendations for resolving ...
متن کاملGrassland vegetation changes and nocturnal global warming
Global minimum temperatures (TMIN) are increasing faster than maximum temperatures, but the ecological consequences of this are largely unexplored. Long-term data sets from the shortgrass steppe were used to identify correlations between TMIN and several vegetation variables. This ecosystem is potentially sensitive to increases in TMIN. Most notably, increased spring TMIN was correlated with de...
متن کاملGlobal warming and its effect on the environmental human health
Earth's ecosystem has been active for millions of years without particular problems and may lead the development of variety of animal species around the world.
متن کاملSupporting Unanticipated Changes with Traits and Classboxes
On the one hand, traits are a powerful way of structuring classes. Traits support the reuse of method collections over several classes. However, traits cannot be used when specifying unanticipated changes to an application. On the other hand, classboxes are a new module system that supports the local redefinition of classes: a collection of classes can be locally extended with variables and/or ...
