Yes, a warmer Arctic means cold winters elsewhere. Here's how

InsideClimate: Melting sea ice and warmer temperatures in the Arctic are to blame for the brutal cold snaps that have plagued parts of Asia and North America in recent years, according to new research by Korean and European scientists released Monday. The study, published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Geoscience, adds to the growing evidence linking rising Arctic temperatures to changing weather patterns across the globe. It also helps further debunk one of climate deniers' favorite arguments: cold weather...
California wildflowers losing diversity face warmer, drier winters

ScienceDaily: Native wildflowers in California are losing species diversity after multiple years of drier winters, according to a study from the University of California, Davis, which provides the first direct evidence of climate change impacts in the state's grassland communities. The study, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, is based on 15 years of monitoring about 80 sampling plots at McLaughlin Reserve, part of UC Davis' Natural Reserve System. "Our study shows...

Climate change forecasts warmer & drier Australia
2015-06-22 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Sydney Morning Herald: How will climate change affect where I live? That's the subject of intense research around the world, as scientists try to predict how increasing levels of greenhouse gases and the additional heat they trap from the sun will alter the climate of different regions. For most regions of Australia, the climate will become warmer and drier, according to research by the Bureau of Meteorology and the CSIRO. For most centres, that's akin to shifting northwards, or in Canberra's case, to a lower...

Warmer Ocean Waters Will Shift Marine Habitats
2015-06-05 23:04:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: Warmer ocean waters are creating such a challenge for marine species worldwide, that new research shows they will consequently shift entire marine habitats. University of Washington (UW) researchers report in the journal Science that these higher temperatures will speed up the animals' metabolic need for oxygen, but the warmer water will hold less of the oxygen needed to fuel their bodies - similar to what happens at high altitudes. These changes will act together to push marine animals away...

Trouble looms as warmer oceans push marine life towards the poles
2015-06-05 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Rising sea temperatures attributed to global climate change could drive many marine creatures away from the equator, but their move towards the poles promises to put them in peril in habitats that are smaller and less hospitable, scientists say. Two studies published on Thursday in the journal Science illustrate dangers researchers forecast for sea animals as diverse as corals, fish and crustaceans. University of Washington oceanographer Curtis Deutsch said warmer ocean temperatures increase...
