ICES Journal of Marine Science
This study examines changes in distribution and abundance of a number of marine fish in the Northwest Atlantic that have been linked to climate variability and change, suggesting that both fishing and climate may affect the status of cusk. Read More →

Chinese Drought, Bread and the Arab Spring

May 2012
Troy Sternberg
Applied Geography
Potential crop failure due to drought led China to buy wheat on the international market and contributed to a doubling of global wheat prices, resulting in price spikes with economic impacts in Egypt, where bread prices tripled. Read More →

This paper presents an analytical framework to encompass contributions to the literature on equity in climate change, and highlights the consequences—in terms of future emissions allocations—of different approaches to equity. Read More →

Climate Trends and Global Crop Production Since 1980

May 2011
David B. Lobell, Wolfram Schlenker, Justin Costa-Roberts
Sciencexpress
This study highlights that that in the cropping regions and growing seasons of most countries, with the important exception of the United States, temperature trends for 1980-2008 exceeded one standard deviation of historic year-to-year variability.Read More →

Impact of Growing Season Temperature on Wheat Productivity in China

June 2009
LiangzhiYou, Mark W.Rosegrant, StanleyWood, DongshengSun
Agricultural and Forest Meteorology
This article emphasizes the necessity of including such major influencing factors as physical inputs into the crop yield-climate function in order to have an accurate estimation of climate impact on crop yields.Read More →
