Study: Subseasonal Forecasts Provide a Powerful Tool for Protecting Whales
-
Effective management of marine mammal populations threatened by man-made impacts is particularly challenging for marine environments. Not only are these environments highly dynamic and difficult to observe, previous static management approaches have proven problematic or ineffective in marine environments, particularly for highly migratory species or for species undergoing distributional shifts due to climate change.

Technical Mitigation Options in Forests
-
Dr. Richard A. Birdsey, a Senior Scientist with the Woodwell Climate Research Center, discusses the forest carbon cycle, the role of U.S. forests in mitigating climate change and helping the U.S. meet its 2050 net zero greenhouse gas emissions goal, and how conditions in the future may impact this critical carbon sink.

The Hot Summer of 2010: Redrawing the Temperature Record Map of Europe
-
The summer of 2010 was exceptionally warm in eastern
Europe and large parts of Russia. We provide evidence
that the anomalous 2010 warmth that caused adverse
impacts exceeded the amplitude and spatial extent of the
previous hottest summer of 2003. 'Mega-heatwaves' such
as the 2003 and 2010 events broke the 500-yr long
seasonal temperature records over approximately 50% of
Europe. According to regional multi-model experiments,
the probability of a summer experiencing 'megaheatwaves'
will increase by a factor of 5 to 10 within the
next 40 years. However, the magnitude of the 2010 event
was so extreme that despite this increase, the occurrence
of an analogue over the same region remains fairly
unlikely until the second half of the 21st century.
