Abstract
Human societies and a multitude of species are going to be tested by
climate change in ways that are barely understood, a wide-ranging
study involving researchers from 44 institutions around the world has
found.
Species in every ecosystem are being affected by rising temperatures
and shifting rainfall patterns, with marine animals moving poleward
at the average pace of 72 kilometres and land-based ones 17
kilometres a decade, according to the paper published on Friday in the
journal Science.
