Soil contains a variety of soil organic matter (SOM) and stores more than double the carbon (C) in the atmosphere1. With intensified global climate change, soil plays an increasingly important role in regulating
This paper discusses the potential effect of global climate change on reactivation of landslides through examination of predicted changes in rainfall pattern on the active landslide at Mam Tor, Derbyshire, UK. This landslide is of Pleistocene origin and is crossed by a road that is now abandoned....
While the potential distribution of the disease on a continental scale has been assessed under climate change scenarios, local analyses of vector species distribution are crucial for effective prevention strategies. Italy is endemic for Leishmania infantum, and expansions in the latitudinal and ...
For analyses assessing the potential impacts of future climate change, General Circulation Models (GCMs) are essential36. These complex numerical models simulate the Earth’s climate system by integrating interactions between the atmosphere, ocean, land surface, and ice-covered regions. Developed by cli...
If greenhouse gas emissions continue to escalate at the current rate, we could be facing a global temperature increase of 3 to 4°C, well above what 19th-century scientists predicted.The fact that Earth's climate is changing is something we’ve known for thousands of years. I...
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...
Under the predicted climate change in the Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan, this study presents the current as well as trajectory tree species distribution ecological niche modelling resulted maps at 1 km spatial resolutions over the entire Gilgit-Baltistan for six native trees species: Abies pindrow, Betul...
The change-factor method was adopted to downscale the global data into the study region (Wilby and Wigley, 2000, Tabor and Williams, 2010). First, the climate anomalies between the present and the 2050 s were extracted from the GCMs. Then, they were resampled to a resolution of 1 km, ...
Scientists find hint of hidden liquid water ocean deep below Mars' surface 'We didn't expect to find such a beautiful, thriving ecosystem': Hidden world of life discovered beneath Antarctic iceberg Related:Gulf Stream weakening now 99% certain, and ramifications will be global ...
climate change projected for the course of the next decades. Although recent evidence for synchronized increases in species richness towards high elevations and global warming points to rapid colonization potential of newly available habitats12, our results, together with other analyses investigating ...
