Predicting the effects of environmental change on biodiversity

You are here: Home / Archives for Climate change

First call AQUACOSM-PLUS

AQUACOSM-plus offers funding for mesocosm experiments through a unique collaborative international project, representing a full cross section of aquatic ecosystems. It is a good opportunity to visit and work in our Iberian-wide distributed pond mesocosm facility set up to examine the effects of climate change on aquatic biodiversity.

Discriminating climate, land‐cover and random effects on species range dynamics

Kudos for Shirin Taheri who just published the first article from her PhD thesis in Global Change Biology.   We show that determinants of bird species range shifts in Great Britain, in the past decades, is likely driven by a combination of factors (climate change, land-cover change, and stochasticity) and that the strength of the signal of each one of these factors varies across the . . .

I was invited to an interesting political discussion surrounding the strategic actions required to face the challenges of climate change. The conference took place in Porto (Portugal) with the presence of 5 ministers of Portugal as well as many other decision makers. The slot in which I participated about "agriculture and climate change starts roughly at 2h26 min of the following . . . [ Read More ]

Climate change adaptation: complexity and uncertainty

I was asked to write an essay about climate change adaptation. The original version can be read here, but I copy below the full text too because the format is not the most user friendly: Adaptação à mudança num contexto de complexidade e incerteza O mundo encontra-se num processo de transformação profunda. Se as alterações climáticas e a perda de biodiversidade globais já estavam na agenda . . . [ Read More ]
