Since biological systems challenge the available methods, and the necessary foundations in physics, computer science, and mathematics are often missing, the CellDevo track greatly benefits from the fundamental research in computer science, bio-image informatics, biophysics, and applied mathematics represented in the CompBio and BioPhysEng tracks and help to develop the methodological foundations for future biology in tight integration with life imaging and other experimental approaches.

Other factors would include: — albedo shifts (both from ice > water, and from increased biological activity, and from edge melt revealing more land, and from more old dust coming to the surface...); — direct effect of CO2 on ice (the former weakens the latter); — increasing, and increasingly warm, rain fall on ice; — «stuck» weather systems bringing more and more warm tropical air ever further toward the poles; — melting of sea ice shelf increasing mobility of glaciers; — sea water getting under parts of the ice sheets where the base is below sea level; — melt water lubricating the ice sheet base; — changes in ocean currents -LRB-?)

In recent years, a number of integrative disciplines — systems science, resilience science, ecosystem health, ethnoecology, deep ecology, Gaia Theory, and others — have sought ways to advance our understanding of the relationships between people and nature, incorporating insights from both the biological and social sciences as well as Indigenous knowledge.

A CO2 pulse in the atmosphere will take centuries to finally return to original levels, and that is completely ignoring any potential feedbacks from other parts of the system (ie temperatures raised for centuries could result in massve methane releases and loss of signficant low albedo ice sheets etc.) The experiments I am aware of that show improved plant growth in elevated CO2 levels require that all additional biological needs are amply provided for.

For example, prenatal maternal anxiety is associated with an altered function of the placenta, in a way that may allow more cortisol to pass from mother to fetus.8 This probably underlies some of the alterations in fetal and child brain neurodevelopment following early exposure to stress and may also be one of the mediators of an altered epigenetic profile, although many other biological systems, including serotonin, dopamine and the pro-inflammatory cytokines, are also likely to be involved.
