Climate change could reduce Adélie penguin populations

2016-07-04 15:08:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Treehugger: Even a species that has benefited from temperature increases in the past may be hurt by excessive warming. Adélie penguins (Phygoscelis adeliae) have lived in Antarctica for millions of years. They are one of only two penguin species found exclusively on the continent, the other being Emperor penguins (Aptenodytes forsteri). Unlike Emperor penguins, which trek for miles to breeding colonies located in ice-covered regions of Antarctica, Adélie penguins breed solely in ice-free areas along the coast,...

Climate Change Will Damage Penguin Populations By 60% This Century

2016-07-03 12:43:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

HNGN: Climate change is affecting Antarctica's penguin population, which is reducing rapidly, especially in regions where the impact of global warming is felt the most. The population is expected to plummet by 60 percent at the end of this century. The main reason for their plummeting population is the warming of sea water. Even though the penguins cannot survive extremely cold temperatures, the warmer places too cannot let them live, explain experts, relying on global climate model projections and...

Bee populations expanded during global warming after the last Ice Age

2016-05-31 10:40:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Phys.Org: The Australian small carpenter bee populations appear to have dramatically flourished in the period of global warming following the last Ice Age some 18,000 years ago. The bee species is found in sub-tropical, coastal and desert areas from the north-east to the south of Australia. Researchers Rebecca Dew and Michael Schwarz from the Flinders University of South Australia teamed up with Sandra Rehan, the University of New Hampshire, USA, to model its past responses to climate change with the help...
