Refugia are habitats that allow organisms to persist when the environment makes persistence impossible elsewhere. The subnivium—the interface between snowpack and ground—is an important seasonal refugium that protects diverse species from extreme winte
There is a growing concern about climate change. What is one effect of climate change? A. Colder winters. B. Less rain. C. Rising sea levels. D. Fewer natural disasters. 相关知识点: 试题来源: 解析 C。本题考查对气候变化影响的了解。气候变化会导致海平面上升,而不是更冷的冬天、更少的雨...
Climate change causes functionally colder winters for snow cover-dependent organisms The subnivium—the space between snowpack and the ground—is an insulating refuge from winter cold. This study predicts that climate warming decreases the subnivium’s seasonal duration yet increases snow-free days wi...
whereas colder temperatures are found in these locations during its negative phase. When the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and NAO are both in their positive phase, European winters tend to be wetter and less severe; however, beyond this general tendency, the influence of the ENSO upon...

2020), while climate change is conceptualized as all forms of climatic and weather variability, involving hotter summers, colder winters, higher rainfall, and increased drought (Lorenzoni and Pidgeon 2006; Schuldt et al. 2011; Whitmarsh 2009). Previous studies have further demonstrated that the ...
(SI). The suggestion that the coldest Arctic winters are getting colder is also apparent in GCM simulations without adjusting the PSC temperature threshold (see SI). We highlight results with adjusted thresholds to place all of the GCMs on a common scale for assessing PFP in the Arctic ...
•描述气候的特点:例如,“The climate here is characterized by hot summers and mild winters.” •表示气候变化:例如,“The climate is changing due to global warming.” •比较不同地区的气候:例如,“The climate in the north is colder than that in the south.” •表示对气候的适应:例如,“Pe...
Recent studies show that climate change can be linked to different weather anomalies such as temperature fluctuations both below and above long-term mean, rather colder winters, summer extreme heat waves, lack of rainfalls, intensive storms and flooding [6, 10,11,12, 14, 21, 30, 34, 35]....
The Little Ice Age was preceded by a period of relatively mild conditions in northern and central Europe. This interval, known as theMedieval Warm Period, occurred from approximatelyad1000 to the first half of the 13th century. Mild summers and winters led to good harvests in much of Europe....
