Last week, the Nobel physics prize was (half) awarded to Suki Manabe and Klaus Hasselmann for their work on climate prediction and the detection and attribution of climate change. This came as quite a surprise to the climate community – though it was welcomed warmly. Fred Singer, before his turn to the dark side).

The August newsletter from the Pike County Conservation District includes articles on riparian buffers and climate change and forests as part of the District's Forestry month education initiative. While these shifts can have a major impact on the planet’s forests, the forests can also have a major impact on climate change.

Atmosphere The gaseous envelope surrounding the Earth. The dry atmosphere consists almost entirely of nitrogen (78.1% volume mixing ratio), together with a number of trace gases, such as argon (0.93% volume mixing ratio), helium, radiatively active greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (0.035% volume mixing ratio), and ozone.

I followed with great interest the launch of the sixth assessment report Working Group 1 (The Physical Science Basis) from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) on August 9th. The cause of our changing climate is the increase in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations that we have released into the air.

Algae are known as phototrophs, meaning they utilize (you guessed it) the process of photosynthesis, harnessing the power of sunlight, carbon dioxide and water to provide themselves with essential nutrition. Built-in sunscreen sounds pretty cool, doesn’t it? Algae and climate change can be a bad combination.

Responsible for 12 percent of all US global warming emissions from human activities, methane traps significantly more heat per molecule than carbon dioxide, making it 86 times more harmful for the first 20 years after it is released into the atmosphere.

As Doug puts it, “Climate change is bringing more variability, not a consistent change toward a new pattern.” For example, reducing tillage and maintaining in-field residues can reduce the losses of carbon dioxide and may reduce nitrous oxide emissions. One crop thrives in some years and others in another year.

When fuels are burned to create energy in a process called combustion, black carbon along with carbon monoxide and other compounds are created because there is not enough oxygen in the atmosphere for the reaction to go to completion. But there’s a bright side to our black carbon problems: it doesn’t live very long.

While dry forests experience more severe wildfires and drought, coastal wet forests must contend with a unique set of circumstances, such as changes in land use, increasing insects and disease, and extreme weather events. With climate change compounding these stressors, there is an urgent need to prepare our forests for the future.
