Well, we've decided NOT to license my truck in CALIFORNICATION next year!!! I WILL NOT bend to the Communist ways of the Liberal POS state that claims to be part of the USA !!! On top of it all CARB said I had to show proof of purchase for a Diesel Particulate Filter by the end of the business day tomorrow...FAWK those A $$H OLEs !!! Jerry Mock | |||

While a handful or so, of ignorant simpletons, around here still cling to the worn out simplistic and boring mantra it’s a hoax, it’s the government, it’s the money, or, only “REAL” scientist know what’s really going on. Oh, and they publish only on obscure Russian web sites, or web sites that thrive (make money click by click) on controversy. Well the rest of world has moved on, here are just a few papers written by real scientist, with real credentials, from real and prestigious universities, from all over the world; their works published in prestigious peer reviewed science journals. Changes in Ecologically Critical Terrestrial Climate Conditions 1. Noah S. Diffenbaugh1,2,*, 2. Christopher B.

E-mail: diffenbaugh@stanford.edu Abstract Terrestrial ecosystems have encountered substantial warming over the past century, with temperatures increasing about twice as rapidly over land as over the oceans. Here, we review the likelihood of continued changes in terrestrial climate, including analyses of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project global climate model ensemble. Inertia toward continued emissions creates potential 21st-century global warming that is comparable in magnitude to that of the largest global changes in the past 65 million years but is orders of magnitude more rapid. The rate of warming implies a velocity of climate change and required range shifts of up to several kilometers per year, raising the prospect of daunting challenges for ecosystems, especially in the context of extensive land use and degradation, changes in frequency and severity of extreme events, and interactions with other stresses. http://www.sciencemag.org/cont...41/6145/486.abstract Science 2 August 2013: Vol. 341 no. 6145 pp. 499-504 DOI: 10.1126/science.1237184 Review Climate Change and the Past, Present, and Future of Biotic Interactions 1.

E-mail: jblois@ucmerced.edu Abstract Biotic interactions drive key ecological and evolutionary processes and mediate ecosystem responses to climate change. The direction, frequency, and intensity of biotic interactions can in turn be altered by climate change. Understanding the complex interplay between climate and biotic interactions is thus essential for fully anticipating how ecosystems will respond to the fast rates of current warming, which are unprecedented since the end of the last glacial period. We highlight episodes of climate change that have disrupted ecosystems and trophic interactions over time scales ranging from years to millennia by changing species’ relative abundances and geographic ranges, causing extinctions, and creating transient and novel communities dominated by generalist species and interactions. These patterns emerge repeatedly across disparate temporal and spatial scales, suggesting the possibility of similar underlying processes. Based on these findings, we identify knowledge gaps and fruitful areas for research that will further our understanding of the effects of climate change on ecosystems. http://www.sciencemag.org/cont...41/6145/499.abstract Science 2 August 2013: Vol. 341 no. 6145 pp. 508-513 DOI: 10.1126/science.1239402 Review Climate Change Impacts on Global Food Security 1.

E-mail: t.r.wheeler@reading.ac.uk Abstract Climate change could potentially interrupt progress toward a world without hunger. A robust and coherent global pattern is discernible of the impacts of climate change on crop productivity that could have consequences for food availability. The stability of whole food systems may be at risk under climate change because of short-term variability in supply. However, the potential impact is less clear at regional scales, but it is likely that climate variability and change will exacerbate food insecurity in areas currently vulnerable to hunger and undernutrition. Likewise, it can be anticipated that food access and utilization will be affected indirectly via collateral effects on household and individual incomes, and food utilization could be impaired by loss of access to drinking water and damage to health. The evidence supports the need for considerable investment in adaptation and mitigation actions toward a “climate-smart food system” that is more resilient to climate change influences on food security. http://www.sciencemag.org/cont...41/6145/508.abstract Science 2 August 2013: Vol. 341 no. 6145 pp. 514-519 DOI: 10.1126/science.1239401 Review Climate Change and Infectious Diseases: From Evidence to a Predictive Framework 1.

E-mail: saltizer@uga.edu Abstract Scientists have long predicted large-scale responses of infectious diseases to climate change, giving rise to a polarizing debate, especially concerning human pathogens for which socioeconomic drivers and control measures can limit the detection of climate-mediated changes. Climate change has already increased the occurrence of diseases in some natural and agricultural systems, but in many cases, outcomes depend on the form of climate change and details of the host-pathogen system. In this review, we highlight research progress and gaps that have emerged during the past decade and develop a predictive framework that integrates knowledge from ecophysiology and community ecology with modeling approaches. Future work must continue to anticipate and monitor pathogen biodiversity and disease trends in natural ecosystems and identify opportunities to mitigate the impacts of climate-driven disease emergence. http://www.sciencemag.org/cont...41/6145/514.abstract Science 2 August 2013: Vol. 341 no. 6145 pp. 519-524 DOI: 10.1126/science.1235225 Review Ecological Consequences of Sea-Ice Decline 1.

E-mail: esp10@psu.edu Abstract After a decade with nine of the lowest arctic sea-ice minima on record, including the historically low minimum in 2012, we synthesize recent developments in the study of ecological responses to sea-ice decline. Sea-ice loss emerges as an important driver of marine and terrestrial ecological dynamics, influencing productivity, species interactions, population mixing, gene flow, and pathogen and disease transmission. Major challenges in the near future include assigning clearer attribution to sea ice as a primary driver of such dynamics, especially in terrestrial systems, and addressing pressures arising from human use of arctic coastal and near-shore areas as sea ice diminishes. http://www.sciencemag.org/cont...41/6145/519.abstract As always if any viewer should wish to see the complete article's for these abstracts just let me know.

North Pole 'Lake' Vanishes Like a politician whose peccadillos lead to "family time," the North Pole lake has had its fill of Internet notoriety. The stunning blue meltwater lake that formed on the Arctic ice disappeared on Monday (July 29), draining through a crack in the underlying ice floe. Now, instead of 2 feet (0.6 meters) of freshwater slopping against a bright-yellow buoy, a remote webcam shows only ice and clouds. Though the North Pole lake's 15 minutes of fame focused worldwide attention on global warming's effects on Arctic sea ice, the melting is actually part of an annual summer thaw, according to researchers who run the North Pole Environmental Observatory. "The formation of these ponds and their disappearance is part of a natural cycle," said Axel Schweiger, head of the Applied Physics Laboratory's Polar Science Center at the University of Washington, which helps run the observatory. | |||
