Audubon predicts climate change will shrink bird ranges

Scranton Times-Tribune: By 2080, birds like the northern saw-whet owl, the scarlet tanager and the Baltimore oriole could all but disappear from Pennsylvania. Climate change is expected to shrink and shift northward the ranges of these and hundreds of other species across North America, according to a groundbreaking National Audubon Society study. Last week, the almost 110-year-old conservation group posted its findings for 588 birds on Climate.audubon.org. The site features maps showing predictions of how species...

Heres How Arctic Sea Ice Could Shrink Even More
2014-08-19 14:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: As the sea ice covering the Arctic continues to shrink under the influence of greenhouse gas-induced warming, it's causing a host of other changes in the region, including the growth of large waves in the previously iced-over areas. Those waves could potentially reinforce and hasten the demise of sea ice, leading to further changes in the fragile polar realm. Changes brought on by global warming in the Arctic region have been well documented. Temperatures there have risen twice as fast as the...
Climate Change May Shrink The Ocean's Dead Zones

Nature World: Some good may come from climate change after all. Dead zones, the most oxygen deprive portions of our world's oceans, may actually be due for some shrinkage due to changing atmospheric patterns and water temperatures, according to a recently study. The study, published in the journal Science, details how the oceans low-oxygen swaths of water are likely to shrink as climate change continues to weaken trade winds. "The tropics should actually get better oxygenated as the climate warms up," Curtis...

N Pacific's tropical anoxic zone might shrink from climate change
2014-08-08 19:46:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Contrary to conventional wisdom, new research indicates the eastern tropical northern Pacific's anoxic zone was shrinking for most of the 20th century before beginning to expand in about 1990. Because trade wind intensity is expected to diminish in coming decades owing to climate change, a result may well be the contraction of the ocean's largest anoxic zone.
