Shifts in vegetation activity of terrestrial ecosystems attributable to climate trends

Published:February 2023

Author(s):Steven Higgins, Timo Conradi, and Edward Muhoko

Publisher:Nature Geoscience

This peer-reviewed study uses datasets on vegetation dynamics of 100 sites over the past 40 years to analyze the impact of anthropogenic climate change on vegetation in all terrestrial ecosystem types.Read More →

Recent and future declines of a historically widespread pollinator linked to climate, land cover, and pesticides

Published:January 2023

Author(s):William M. Janousek, Margaret R. Douglas, Syd Cannings, Marion A. Clément, Casey M. Delphia, Jeffery G. Everett, Richard G. Hatfield, Douglas A. Keinath, Jonathan B. Uhuad Koch, Lindsie M. McCabe, John M. Mola, Jane E. Ogilvie, Imtiaz Rangwala, Leif L. Richardson, Ashley T. Rohde, James P. Strange, Lusha M. Tronstad, and Tabitha A. Graves

Publisher:Proceedings of the National Academy of the Sciences

This peer-reviewed study uses bayesian statistical methods to evaluate impacts of climate change on bumble bee populations. Bumble bees are projected to experience significant population decline over the next century due to climate-driven stressors. Read More →

New LiDAR-Based Elevation Model Shows Greatest Increase in Global Coastal Exposure to Flooding to Be Caused by Early-Stage Sea-Level Rise

Published:January 2023

Author(s):Ronald Vernimmen, Aljosja Hooijer

Publisher:Earth's Future

In this peer-reviewed study, the authors use newer and more accurate satellite LiDAR elevation data to assess impacts of sea level rise. The study finds that in many regions flood exposure will increase much more rapidly than current models assume.Read More →

Recent change in summer rainfall over the Tibetan Plateau: roles of anthropogenic forcing and internal variability

Published:January 2023

Author(s):Zhaoming Ding, Panmao Zhai, and Renguang Wu

Publisher:Climate Dynamics

This peer-reviewed study uses climate modeling to show that changes to precipitation patterns on the Tibetan Plateau, which have caused both extreme precipitation events and drought, can be attributed to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases.Read More →

Climate-driven changes of global marine mercury cycles in 2100

Published:January 2023

Author(s):Yujuan Wang, Peipei Wu, Yanxu Zhang

Publisher:Proceedings of the National Academy of the Sciences

This peer reviewed study uses a global ocean model to project potentially harmful climate-driven changes to the global marine mercury cycle in 2100.Read More →
