NASA teleconference on sea level change warns of rising oceans
2015-08-28 04:07:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Gizmag: On Aug. 26, NASA held a media teleconference regarding current predictions on sea level rise, highlighting the risks to coastal populations in low-lying areas, and the inherent problems in creating reliable global models. A panel of experts from NASA's recently-founded Sea Level Change Team tells us that ocean levels are inexorably on the rise, but gaps in our understanding and ability to survey risk regions mean we don't know just how fast the change will take place. "People need to be prepared...

Times: Hurricane Katrina surprised disaster preparedness authorities when it made landfall 10 years ago, leveling entire communities and killing more than 1,800 people. The storm caused more than $100 billion in damage, making it the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history. But for all the damage the storm caused in New Orleans, Katrina was a relatively weak hurricane when it hit the city. In the academic community, the unexpected disaster prompted climate scientists to consider the link between climate...

Study shows plant species' genetic responses to climate change

Physorg: A study by the University of Liverpool has found that the genetic diversity of wild plant species could be altered rapidly by anthropogenic climate change. Scientists studied the genetic responses of different wild plant species, located in a natural grassland ecosystem near Buxton, to a variety of simulated climate change treatments-including drought, watering, and warming-over a 15-year period. Analysis of DNA markers in the plants revealed that the climate change treatments had altered the...
