WorldFishing: Increase in bacteria threatens fish in the Baltic An increase in bacteria in the northern Baltic is leading to a reduction in fish numbers. Photo: Kristina Viklund, UMF An increase in bacteria as a result of climate change is reducing the number of fish, according to environmental experts. In the northern parts of the Baltic Sea both precipitation and river discharge are expected to increase as more carbon is dissolved in sea water. The increased river discharge will lead to a higher inflow...

Stressed Indus River threatens Pakistans water supplies
2016-06-29 04:26:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature: Population growth and agriculture have stressed the Indus, which flows the length of Pakistan. The Indus River, which supports the lives of 300 million people, is supplying Pakistan with less water than it did 50 years ago, particularly in the spring and summer, researchers have found. The news comes as demand for water is projected to rise sharply. The findings contradict previous predictions that the rivers volume would stay the same, or even grow, as climate change kicks in, although that...

Drought threatens 'genius' regs that stopped L.A. water grab

Greenwire: Despite being among the most protected salt lakes in the American West, Californias Mono Lake in the eastern Sierra Nevada may reach its lowest level in a decade due to to water management, climate change and drought. In 1941, Los Angeles came for the scenic lake here. After diverting the inflows to Owens Lake -- setting it on course for ruin -- the city extended its aqueduct 100 miles north in the eastern Sierra Nevada and captured virtually all of Mono Lake's tributaries. Like Owens Lake,...

Pace of warming threatens Africas new maize varieties
2016-06-22 12:36:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Home: It can take up to 30 years to improve a crop variety, test it and persuade farmers to adopt it. That means the speed of climate change in Africa could make a new variety of maize useless even before the first harvest, according to new research. But two separate studies that address the challenge of food security in a rapidly warming world suggest that the answers may lie not just in future weather but in todays soils. One says that better soil data can be used to predict surer levels of...
