[1] [2] He is Senior Research Fellow at the Laboratory of the Marine Biological Association (MBA) in Plymouth, and Professor of Marine Ecology in the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton at the University of Southampton, U.K.
Some climate change effects: wildfire caused by heat and dryness, bleached coral caused by ocean acidification and heating, environmental migration caused by desertification, and coastal flooding caused by storms and sea level rise. Effects of climate change are well documented and growing for Earth's natural environment and human societies. Changes to the climate system include an overall ...
The tiger shark is an apex predator [35] and has a reputation for eating almost anything. [7] These predators swim close inland to eat at night, and during the day swim out into deeper waters. [36] Young tiger sharks are found to feed largely on small fish, as well as various small jellyfish, and mollusks including cephalopods.
Natural climate variabilities, including changing ocean patterns, may also have contributed. But Goessling points to a third, more alarming factor: global warming itself. Low-level clouds tend to ...
Climate change is accelerating the melting of the world's mountain glaciers, according to a massive new study that found them shrinking more than twice as fast as in the early 2000s. The world's ...
