Decline of fishing in Lake Tanganyika 'due to warming'
2016-08-09 01:26:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: New research blames rising temperatures over the last century as the key cause of decline in one of the world's most important fisheries. Lake Tanganyika is Africa's oldest lake and its fish are a critical part of the diet of neighbouring countries. But catches have declined markedly in recent decades as commercial fleets have expanded. However this new study says that climate warming and not overfishing is the real cause of the problem. Diversity hotspot Estimated to be the world's...
Lake Tanganyika fisheries declining from global warming

PhysOrg: The decrease in fishery productivity in Lake Tanganyika since the 1950s is a consequence of global warming rather than just overfishing, according to a new report from an international team led by a University of Arizona geoscientist. The lake was becoming warmer at the same time in the 1800s the abundance of fish began declining, the team found. The lake's algae - fish food - also started decreasing at that time. However, large-scale commercial fishing did not begin on Lake Tanganyika until...

Warming climate expected to squeeze out Arctic bird habitat
2016-08-08 14:04:14| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Anchorage Daily News: Many species of shorebirds that migrate to the Arctic each year to breed their young will lose substantial amounts of their summer habitat to climate change, and the biggest losses in the coming decades will be in Alaska and neighboring parts of Russia, new research concludes. By 2070, higher temperatures brought on by climate change will eliminate important Arctic breeding habitat for at least two-thirds of the 24 bird species evaluated in a study published in the journal Global Change Biology,...
