In this article, we show how research on plants, animals, and microbes helps us better understand how living things can both impact and respond to climate change. This research also gives us insight into what the future might be like for life on Earth. Such knowledge will h...

Changes in ocean currents due to climate change can also affect the distribution of the walruses’ main food source – clams and other benthic invertebrates. Changes in water temperature and salinity can lead to shifts in the benthic communities, potentially making it harder for the walruses to ...
Under this thesis, microbes degrade, assimilate and biosynthesize plant inputs to soils prior to SOM stabilization. Multiple hypotheses suggest that variation in environmental factors – such as temperature and nutrient availability – affect microbial community composition and physiology and that these ...
A greater understanding of how plants and microbes work together to store vast amounts of atmospheric carbon in the soil will help in the design of better bioenergy crops for the fight against climate change. Deciphering the mechanics of this mutually beneficial relationship is challenging,...
How does ocean salinity affect climate? How does ocean acidification impact finfish? How does ocean acidification affect the carbon cycle? How do people cause ocean warming? How is ocean acidification harmful? How does ocean circulation affect climate change?
What are the impacts of ocean acidification on marine microbes? How does global warming affect ocean salinity? How do hydrogen ions cause ocean acidification? Does climate change cause ocean acidification? How do people cause ocean warming?
and it’s great that some cities are using smart urban plans to do just that.2/ Another way to cut down on emissions is to use fewer carbon-intensive materials in making cars to begin with—although that wouldn’t affect the fuel-based emissions we’ve covered in this chapter. As I me...
Plankton are susceptible to virus infection, the team noted, and DNA viruses are increasingly recognized as influencing marine microbes and microbe-mediated biogeochemical cycling. However, little is known about global marine RNA virus diversity, ecology, and ecosystem roles. “Despite literature increasin...
