Disease, warming oceans, rock lobster and sea star populations

ScienceDaily: Two new Cornell University studies show how diverse marine organisms are susceptible to diseases made worse by warming oceans. The first study warns that warm sea temperatures in 2015 may increase the levels of epizootic shell disease in American lobster in the northern Gulf of Maine in 2016. The second provides the first evidence linking warmer ocean temperatures with a West Coast epidemic of sea star wasting disease that has infected more than 20 species and devastated populations since 2013....

10,000 Years Sea Level Rise From Human-Caused Climate Change
2016-02-14 16:50:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Clean Technica: The sea level rise that will accompany unmitigated anthropogenic climate change will last for at least 10,000 years, according to new research published in the journal Nature Climate Change. What this means, is that many of the most highly populated areas of the globe - many of which are now expected to go under the waves over the next few hundred years - will still be underwater nearly 10 millennia from now. Even if emissions are rapidly curtailed and warming is kept below 2° Celsius (a very...
Climate: Land areas storing more water, slowing sea level rise

Summit County: As crucial as it is for the future of humanity, calculating the rate of sea level rise has never been easy, and new measurements by NASA satellites have added a new twist to the equation. Careful study of the data from NASA`s twin NASA`s Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites helped show how climate-driven increases of liquid water storage on land have affected the rate of sea level rise. In the past decade, Earth`s land masses have soaked up an extra 3.2 trillion tons of water...
