However, high carbon dioxide levels, such as those
anticipated by climate change models, may hinder the ability of fish to recognize one another and form groups with familiar individuals.
A ClimateWire investigation into the origins of the flood disaster uncovered evidence that points to a calamity caused by man, the cumulative effect of erratic weather
forecast by climate change models, massive deforestation, and lax attention to infrastructure.
These new insights are also significant for reforestation: The planting of species that store more carbohydrates can be favored to boost the forests» resistance to the drier climates
predicted by the climate change models.
Although there is at present no means by which to tell whether this particular storm was due to human induced global warming, the devastation it has caused is consistent with the projections
generated by climate change models that suggest such storms will become more severe as the world warms up.
If so, the increased frequency and intensity of heat waves
forecast by climate change models could bring about considerable changes to these environments,» Orizaola concludes.
A ClimateWire investigation into the origins of the flood disaster uncovered evidence that points to a calamity caused by man, the cumulative effect of erratic weather forecast
by climate change models, massive deforestation, and lax attention to infrastructure maintenance and engineering standards.
Furthermore in contrast to researchers arguing rising atmospheric CO2 will inhibit calcification, increased photosynthesis not only increases calcification, paradoxically the process of calcification produces CO2 and drops pH to levels lower than predicted
by climate change models.
