Nature World News: FEBRUARY 09: Women walk with their wares through the West Point slum on February 9, 2016 in Monrovia, Liberia.

Zika, Ebola outbreaks can be predicted through environmental changes, finds new study
2016-06-13 05:13:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
First Post: Scientists have successfully developed a model that can predict the outbreak of diseases that spread from animals to humans -- such as Ebola and Zika -- based on changes in climate, population growth and land use. "This model is a major improvement in our understanding of the spread of diseases from animals to people," said Kate Jones from University College London (UCL) in the UK. "We hope it can be used to help communities prepare and respond to disease outbreaks, as well as to make decisions...

Seas could rise higher than predicted, drenching coastal cities: study
2016-04-01 01:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Global seas could rise nearly twice as much as previous, widely accepted estimates, according to a study published on Thursday saying low-lying cities face possible disaster by the end of the century. Sea levels could surge more than three feet (0.9 meter) by 2100 from melting Antarctic ice alone, on top of a three-foot rise already predicted, said the study by two American researchers that appeared in the science journal Nature. That same Antarctic ice melt could add nearly 50 feet (15 meters)...
