The study presented in the journal BioScience analyzed 276 published peer - reviewed articles that looked at the landscape effects of oil, natural gas, and wind production infrastructure worldwide, in order to compare their impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services — wildlife mortality, habitat loss and fragmentation, noise and light pollution, invasive species, and changes in carbon stocks and freshwater resources.

Even in areas where precipitation does not decrease, these increases in surface evaporation and loss of water from plants lead to more rapid drying of soils if the effects of higher temperatures are not offset by other changes (such as reduced wind speed or increased humidity).5 As soil dries out, a larger proportion of the incoming heat from the sun goes into heating the soil and adjacent air rather than evaporating its moisture, resulting in hotter summers under drier climatic conditions.6
