This recent research delves into the intricate relationship between cold ocean upwelling, shark populations, and broader marine ecosystems in the face of climate change. While upwellings offer feeding grounds for sharks, they also disrupt habitats for various marine species and, when extreme, can be deadly to them. This underscores the complex interplay between ocean dynamics and the well-being of marine life. https://lnkd.in/e3ETqSw9

Fighting climate change, one coastal wetland at a time! University of North Florida's Dr. Scott Jones led a groundbreaking global study on restoring wetlands like salt marshes, mangroves, and seagrasses—proven to store carbon and cool our planet. 🌱 The study pinpoints where restoration efforts work best, providing actionable insights to boost climate solutions. The secret? Target degraded areas with strong community and governance backing, while overcoming challenges like rising sea levels and methane emissions! 🔗 Dive into the details—read the full study in Cambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures. https://lnkd.in/e8kTF3ss

need a better understanding on this.

If you want to learn a little about my research, check out the latest episode of "With Good Reason" from Virginia Humanities. It was a great time talking with Sarah McConnell about forest fires, climate, and all things dendrochronology. https://lnkd.in/ebN4Ra9y

Explore the implications of the rare Atlantic gray whale sighting—a beacon for understanding climate change's impact on marine life. Read on for an in-depth analysis of this extraordinary event. #GrayWhale #ClimateChange #MarineConservation #OceanBiodiversity #ScienceTrends

Linkage between coastal marine ecosystems and mangroves.

A great way to end the week - here’s a short video on how we all can use Mother Nature herself to help solve the ills of our changing climate and address biodiversity loss- called Nature Based Climate Solutions these kinds of restoration measures will help communities and nature - win win!

We are excited to share the addition of two new graphs in the En-ROADS Simulator that highlight the possible impacts of climate change on terrestrial and marine life.🦬🐟 The "Extinction Risk of Endemic Animal Species" and "Loss in Ocean Life from Warming" graphs offer a new perspective on the relationship between climate change and our natural environment. They show the urgent need to limit global temperature increase to protect vulnerable species and ecosystems. Check them out in #EnROADS👉 https://lnkd.in/e7d5Gtuf #ClimateAction

Glaciers have retreated by an average of 600 metres over the past century, while more than 11 billion tonnes of freshwater — previously stored in ice — has been lost since the year 2000.
