With intensified global climate change, soil plays an increasingly important role in regulating global C cycling2. Earth system models (ESMs) have been conceived to explain global patterns of C stocks and fluxes as well as to project their responses and feedbacks to the climate system3,4. Accura...
global warmingDistribution ranges of many organisms are changing in response to global climate change and human activities. To test the impact of climatic change on distribution range of cyprinid fish species, Species Distribution Modeling (SDM) was used to predict the current climatically suitable ...
Plants are flowering faster than scientists predicted in reaction to climate change, which could have long damaging effects on food chains and ecosystems. Global warming is having a great effect on hundreds of plant and animal species around the world, changing some living patterns, scientists say....
In the Arctic for instance, two to three times higher warming rates than the global annual average are expected1. The impacts of this global warming on biodiversity have been largely documented2 and climate change has been identified as one of the major biodiversity threats3,4, with the worst...
Climate change scenarios from the Canadian Global Coupled Model 1 (CGCM1) model runs are downscaled to local conditions using Statistical Downscaling Model (SDSM), and the change factors are extracted and applied in LARS-WG stochastic weather generator and then input to the recharge model. The ...
and economies. Climate models predict that the difference between El Niño- and La Niña-related tropical rainfall will increase over the next 80 years, even though the temperature difference between El Niño and La Niña may change only very little in response to global warming. A new st...
More recently, much attention has been focused on the shifts in the global soil microbiome as a result of climate change [27,28,29]. Human-driven climate change has already resulted in drastic changes in the microecology of some of Earth’s most climate-sensitive biomes, such as polar desert...
However, little has been said about disease pattern changes in the tropics. In general, our climate change projections predicted a change in the spatial distribution for the two vector species, promoting a shift in altitudinal distribution for L. longipalpis in the Magdalena River Valley. Recent ...
This makes sense, for atmosphere/ocean/climate problems are notoriously predictability limited as time moves on (the arrow of time; more below on cross-validation), and hence the most recent time interval(s) should be chosen to form the validation set (e.g.,35,36). To test whether the ...
Climate change profoundly influences species distributions. These effects are evident in poleward latitudinal range shifts for many taxa, and upward altitudinal range shifts for alpine species, that resulted from increased annual global temperatures sinc
