Some permafrost might soak up methane as climate warms
2015-08-21 09:54:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ArsTechnica: Talk of a warming planet often focuses on places that are cold. Glaciers shrink and raise sea level. Arctic sea ice dwindles, opening an actual northwest passage in the summer. And permafrost thaws, pulling vast amounts of organic matter out of the freezer to spoil and add to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Lots of research has focused on organic-rich permafrost and the amount of carbon dioxide and methane it could produce as microbes break down all that food. But thats only a slice of...

Global Sea Levels Could Soon Rise 20' as Climate Warms

Environment News Service: Global sea levels have risen at least six meters, or about 20 feet, above present levels many times over the past three million years, finds a new review analyzing three decades of research on melting polar ice sheets. What worries scientists the most is the fact that amount of melting was caused by an increase of only one to two degrees Celsius in global mean temperatures, the increase that Earth is experiencing now. When past temperatures were similar to or slightly higher than the present...
Bumblebees Vanish as Climate Warms in America, Europe

Environment News Service: Bumblebees are disappearing from North America and Europe due to climate change, according to a study by Canadian scientists published in the current issue of the journal "Science." Rapid declines in bumblebee species across North America and Europe are strongly linked to climate change, the study shows. "Pollinators are vital for food security and our economy, and widespread losses due to climate change will diminish both," said Jeremy Kerr, lead researcher and professor at the University...

As world warms, ocean habitats shrink
2015-06-05 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Science: Large swaths of the ocean could become inhospitable to many kinds of marine life as the world warms. Thats the conclusion of a new study, which finds that rising water temperatures will make perhaps 20% of the ocean less habitable for many fish and crabs by reducing available oxygen. Another study warns that corals fleeing the tropics for cooler waters may find themselves without enough light to photosynthesize adequately in the winter. Most kinds of coral require water that is relatively warm,...
