Health toll of climate change seen as ethical crisis
The public health costs of global climate change are likely to be the greatest in those parts of the world that have contributed least to the problem

Carbon turns over much faster through basal food-chain levels in aquatic than in terrestrial ecosystems
Global temperatures have increased dramatically over the past century, which is causing major impacts on climate patterns, ocean circulation and wildlife preservation.

Climate shifts — probability of randomness
Severe climate changes during the last ice-age could have been caused by random chaotic variations on Earth

Limited climate tracking in European trees despite 10,000 years of postglacial warmth
The relative roles of environment and history as controls of large-scale species distributions is a crucial issue in biogeography and macroecology.

Climate Change: The Rice Genome to the Rescue
New evidence is emerging that climate change could reduce not only the world’s ability to produce food but also international efforts to cut poverty.

A Climate Change Scenario for Carbon Dioxide and Dissolved Organic Carbon Fluxes from a Temperate Forest Soil
The authors assessed the effect of changes in rainfall amount and distribution on CO2 emissions and dissolved organic C (DOC) leaching.

Effects of Seasonal Climatic Conditions on the Diagnosis of Mycobacterium avium Subspecies paratuberculosis in Dairy Cattle
A study found no evidence linking temperature-related seasonality to a reciprocal increase in the risk of fecal culture positivity for MAP.

Markers of Oxidative Status in Plasma and Erythrocytes of Transition Dairy Cows During Hot Season
The study was carried out to assess whether hot seasons affect the oxidative status of transition dairy cows.

Problems in bioclimatology
The author was led to more general questions regarding the effects that environmental forces exert on living things and particularly on man.

Fresh air for air passengers
Air travellers rarely think about the indoor climate in airport terminals, or about the kitchens where their in-flight meals are prepared.

New markers of climate change
A new way to monitor the effects of climate change on rainforests is being investigated at Cambridge University.

Climate warming and habitat loss threaten British Butterfly survival
Because butterflies are cold blooded, their growth and development are closely dependent on the weather and climate.

Natural climate change may be larger than commonly thought
A new study of climate in the Northern Hemisphere for the past 2000 years shows that natural climate change may be larger than generally thought.

First British Glacial Map to predict future climate change
An academic from the University of Sheffield has produced the first glacial map of Britain, which could allow us to better predict climate change in the future.

Global Cooperation needed on Climate Change
Climate change negotiators meeting next week in Marrakech need to build a global coalition to enhance the adaptation ability already shown by communities vulnerable to climate change.

Plankton Cool The Southern Hemisphere
Dutch research has shown that marine plankton have the greatest effect on the climate in the southern hemisphere

Climate Threshold May Alter Economic Picture Of Climate Change
Typical economic analysis applied to global warming may be biased because they neglect climate thresholds

Climate Change Following Collapse Of The Maya Empire
Researchers have demonstrated that the climate in South Mexico changed following the collapse of the Maya empire.

Model Helps Scientists Home In On Tropical Climate Controls
It has long been known that tropical climate - by redistributing vast amounts of solar energy through welling hot air and the formation of towering cumulous clouds - influences weather in other parts of the world.

Tropical Plants Help Identify Lags Between Abrupt Climate And Vegetation Shifts
Clues to the timing and cause of abrupt climate changes in the past may lie in ocean floor sediments, according to a study
