Global Warming and Climate Change
This chapter delves into the complex and critical topic of global warming and climate change, examining their causes, impacts, and long-term...
-
Plants and global warming: challenges and strategies for a warming world
Key MessageIn this review, we made an attempt to create a holistic picture of plant response to a rising temperature environment and its impact by...
-
Warming indirectly simplifies food webs through effects on apex predators
Warming alters ecosystems through direct physiological effects on organisms and indirect effects via biotic interactions, but their relative impacts...
-
Plant height as an indicator for alpine carbon sequestration and ecosystem response to warming
Growing evidence indicates that plant community structure and traits have changed under climate warming, especially in cold or high-elevation...

Tibetan Plateau grasslands might increase sequestration of microbial necromass carbon under future warming
Microbial necromass carbon (MNC) can reflect soil carbon (C) sequestration capacity. However, changes in the reserves of MNC in response to warming...

Natural warming differentiates communities and increases diversity in deep-sea Ridge Flank Hydrothermal Systems
Ridge Flank Hydrothermal Systems have discrete pockets of fluid discharge that mimic climate-induced ocean warming. Unlike traditional hydrothermal...

Increased precipitation rather than warming increases ecosystem multifunctionality in an alpine meadow
BackgroundsClimate change is well-known to alter the structure and function of grassland ecosystems, and multifunctionality contributes to a...

Rapid growth rate responses of terrestrial bacteria to field warming on the Antarctic Peninsula
Ice-free terrestrial environments of the western Antarctic Peninsula are expanding and subject to colonization by new microorganisms and plants,...

Effects of warming on litter decomposition and fungal communities in lake wetlands
The impact of climate warming on the decomposition of wetland plant litter has received widespread attention. We used the litter bag method to...

Global Warming and Sexual Plant Reproduction: Impact on Crop Productivity
In the last two decades, there has been an unprecedented increase in extreme climatic events which are closely related to the earth’s warming. The...

Climate warming shifts the time interval between flowering and leaf unfolding depending on the warming period
The timing of flowering (FL) and leaf unfolding (LU) determine plants’ reproduction and vegetative growth. Global warming has substantially advanced...
-
Warming positively promoted community appearance restoration of the degraded alpine meadow although accompanied by topsoil drying
On-going climate warming is threatening the ecological function of grassland ecosystems. However, whether warming has positive effects on community...
-
Existing dataset suggests lakes in agricultural watersheds are warming faster than urban or forested lakes
Lake temperatures are important drivers of ecological and ecosystem processes, including influencing organism physiology and biogeochemical rates....

Warming-induced shifts on Tibetan Plateau: the overlooked ants and their ecological impacts
ContextTibetan alpine ecosystems are among the world’s fastest-warming natural systems, and consequently, are expected to undergo dramatic changes in...

Atmospheric Influences, Global Warming, and Climate Change
Some of the most subtle but significant impacts of human activities on modern global change processes have occurred as emissions of airborne...
-
Human pressures modulate climate-warming-induced changes in size spectra of stream fish communities
Climate warming can negatively affect the body size of ectothermic organisms and, based on known temperature–size rules, tends to benefit...
-
Deficit irrigation and warming during the late winter and spring affect vegetative growth and reproductive development in young olive trees
To better understand the implications of climate change, the combined responses of olive trees to irrigation amount and warming need to be examined....

Effects of Long-Term Warming on Microbial Nutrients Limitation of Soil Aggregates on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
Global warming has increasingly detrimental impacts on the structure and function of the Tibetan Plateau ecosystem. However, the mechanism by which...

Nutrient resorption efficiency of twigs is more vulnerable to warming than that of leaves of Cunninghamia lanceolata seedlings
Background and aimsGlobal warming is a major global issue that may affect nutrient cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Plants usually employ the...
