Fish die as Alaska temperatures continue to break records
2013-08-03 00:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Alaska's summer heat wave has been pleasant for humans but punitive for some of its fish. Overheated water has been blamed for large die-offs of hatchery trout and salmon stocks in at least two parts of the state as hot, dry weather has set in, according to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. Hundreds of grayling and rainbow trout died in June after being placed in a Fairbanks lake, the department reported. An unusually cold spring caused lake ice to linger much longer than normal, before...

Study: Hotter Temperatures Lead to Hotter Tempers
2013-08-01 15:45:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: As the world gets warmer, people are more likely to get hot under the collar, scientists say. A massive new study finds that aggressive acts like committing violent crimes and waging war become more likely with each added degree. Researchers analyzed 60 studies on historic empire collapses, recent wars, violent crime rates in the United States, lab simulations that tested police decisions on when to shoot and even cases where pitchers threw deliberately at batters in baseball. They found a common...

Tropical Ecosystems Boost Carbon Dioxide as Temperatures Increase
2013-07-25 23:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: Unlike in other parts of the word, tropical ecosystems are capable of generating significant carbon dioxide when temperatures rise, an international team of researchers has found. Specifically, the scientists discovered that a temperature increase of just 1 degree Celsius in near-surface air temperatures in the tropics results in an average annual growth rate of atmospheric carbon dioxide that is equivalent to one-third of the annual global emissions caused by the combustion of fossil fuels and...
