The Absence of a Role of Climate Change in the 2011 Thailand Floods

July 2012
Thomas C. Peterson, Peter A. Stott, Stephanie Herring
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society
Using a variety of methodologies, six extreme events of the previous year are explained from a climate perspective.Read More →

Extinction debt of high-mountain plants under twenty-first-century climate change

May 2012
Stefan Dullinger, Andreas Gattringer, Wilfried Thuiller, Dietmar Moser, Niklaus E. Zimmermann, Antoine Guisan, Wolfgang Willner, Christoph Plutzar, Michael Leitner, Thomas Mang, Marco Caccianiga, Thomas Dirnböck, Siegrun Ertl, Anton Fischer, Jonathan Lenoir, Jens-Christian Svenning, Achilleas Psomas, Dirk R. Schmatz, Urban Silc, Pascal Vittoz & Karl Hülber

This study uses a hybrid model to forecast the climate-driven spatio-temporal dynamics of 150 high-mountain plant species across the European Alps. 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 →

Aerosols implicated as a prime driver of twentieth-century North Atlantic climate variability

April 2012
Booth, B.B., Dunstone, N.J., Halloran, P.R., Andrews, T. and Bellouin, N
Nature
This paper uses a state-of-the-art Earth system climate model to show that aerosol emissions and periods of volcanic activity explain 76 per cent of the simulated multidecadal variance in detrended 1860–2005 North Atlantic sea surface temperatures. Read More →

A Decade of Weather Extremes

March 2012
Dim Coumou, Stefan Rahmstorf
Nature Climate Change
This article reviews the evidence and argue that for some types of extreme--notably heatwaves, but also precipitation extremes--there is now strong evidence linking specific events or an increase in their numbers to the human influence on climate.Read More →

Report of Greenhouse Gas Accounting Tools for Agriculture and Forestry Sectors

February 2012
Denef, K., K. Paustian, S. Archibeque, S. Biggar, D. Pape
USDA
This report provides an overview of publicly accessible tools (calculators, protocols, guidelines and models) for quantifying GHG emissions/offsets from agricultural and forestry activities, with a focus on farm/entity/project-level GHG accounting. Read More →

On a collision course: competition and dispersal differences create no-analogue communities and cause extinctions during climate change

January 2012
Mark C. Urban, Josh J. Tewksbury and Kimberly S. Sheldon
The Royal Society Publishing
This study develops a model of multiple competing species along a warming climatic gradient that includes temperature-dependent competition, differences in niche breadth and interspecific differences in dispersal ability.Read More →

Equity in Climate Change: An Analytical Review

January 2012
Aaditya Mattoo, Arvind Subramanian
The World Bank
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 →

Patterns of Change: Whose Fingerprint Is Seen in Global Warming?

December 2011
Gabriele Hegerl, Francis Zwiers, Claudia Tebaldi
Environmental Research Letters
This article explores the physical arguments used in climate change attribution, and the statistical methods applied to explore the extent of attribution in recent climate records. Read More →

Greenhouse Gas Emissions from U.S. Agriculture and Forestry: A Review of Emission Sources, Controlling Factors, and Mitigation Potential

December 2011
Denef, K., S. Archibeque, and K. Paustian
USDA
This report presents the current state of the science regarding controlling factors and mitigation technologies for GHG emissions in U.S. agriculture and forestry, along with a summary of reported C sequestration and GHG emission reduction ranges. Read More →
