Physorg: A study by the University of Liverpool has found that the genetic diversity of wild plant species could be altered rapidly by anthropogenic climate change. Scientists studied the genetic responses of different wild plant species, located in a natural grassland ecosystem near Buxton, to a variety of simulated climate change treatments-including drought, watering, and warming-over a 15-year period. Analysis of DNA markers in the plants revealed that the climate change treatments had altered the...

Study shows how climate change threatens health
2015-08-14 12:00:00| LifeSciencesWorld
[NEWS] Researchers at Columbia University's National Center for Disaster Preparedness (NCDP) and the University of Washington have published a new study focused on the public health implications of climate change. The article explores climate change impacts on human health in the U.S. Gulf Coast and has implications for this and other coastal regions that are particularly vulnerable to climate change. The study appears in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public…

Study shows some permafrost carbon transported by river to the ocean
2015-08-10 15:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environmental News Network: As temperatures rise, some of the organic carbon stored in Arctic permafrost meets an unexpected fateburial at sea. As many as 2.2 million metric tons of organic carbon per year are swept along by a single river system into Arctic Ocean sediment, according to a new study an international team of researchers published today in Nature. This process locks away carbon dioxide (CO2) - a greenhouse gas - and helps stabilize the earths CO2 levels over time, and it may help scientists better predict how...
