Pink Salmon Risks a Double Threat of Acidification
2015-07-05 15:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: Pink salmon in the Pacific Ocean face a double threat of acidification linked to greenhouse gas emissions since it slows their early growth in rivers and disrupts the chemistry of seawater. Impacts have in the past been more studied in the seas than in fresh water. But the Canadian study found that acidification of rivers could make young pink salmon, the most abundant type in the Pacific, smaller and more vulnerable to predators by dampening their ability to smell danger. Damage done by acidification...

Greenhouse gas emissions remain primary threat to polar bears
2015-07-03 17:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Greenhouse gas emissions remain the primary threat to the preservation of polar bear populations worldwide. This conclusion holds true under both a reduced greenhouse gas emission scenario that stabilizes climate warming and another scenario where emissions and warming continue at the current pace, according to updated U.S. Geological Survey research models. Under both scenarios, the outcome for the worldwide polar bear population will very likely worsen over time through the end of the century....
