Warmer Temperatures Linked To Earlier Spring Leaf Unfolding, New Study Shows
2015-10-05 03:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: Climate change has led to earlier spring leaf unfolding in many deciduous, or broadleaf, trees that otherwise require colder temperatures for slow release. It turns out this sensitivity has significantly decreased since the 1980s, according to researchers from the Technical Institute of Munich (TUM). This could help scientists better understand future carbon storage and potential frost damage. An international team of researchers examined how leaf sensitivity changes when faced with warming temperatures....

Brown Carbon Plays Larger Role in Climate Than Assumed, Study Says
2015-10-02 19:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: Climate models are underestimating the effects of so-called brown carbon from sources such as forest fires because the models do not account for regional factors such as areas where wood-burning stoves are common when estimating brown carbon's climate-warming impacts. Black carbon, primarily from urban combustion sources like vehicles and factories, absorbs the most sunlight, the researchers explain, and it's well-accounted for in climate models. However, most models don't properly account for...
Missoula real estate agents study effects of climate change on homebuyers, neighborhoods

Missoulian: From catastrophic wildfires to prolonged smoke exposure to flood potential to drought forecasts, climate change has massive implications for the real estate industry and for potential homebuyers. To understand these issues, more than 100 Missoula-area real estate agents attended a seminar Thursday on the effects of climate change on their industry. The event was hosted by the Missoula Organization of Realtors and the presenter was Steve Thompson, president of Climate Realty LLC, a company that...

Study finds weather extremes harmful to grasslands
2015-09-30 17:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Fluctuations in extreme weather events, such as heavy rains and droughts, are affecting ecosystems in unexpected ways -- creating "winners and losers" among plant species that humans depend upon for food. Arizona State University investigators conducted a six-year experiment on the effects of climatic variability on desert grassland. The study revealed that when unpredictable weather patterns create alternating wet and dry years, ecosystem productivity declines -- mostly because grasses diminish,...
