On Monday 1 June at 4pm, the Research Group on Private Actor Responsibility (PAR) is holding a final Easter term event at the Lauterpacht Centre for International Law (LCIL) that discusses moral, ethical and legal aspects of individual accountability in the context of climate change. The discussion is based on a project…
Increasing human activity and climate change in Antarctica may increase the rates of non-native species introduction and establishment, resulting in potentially irreversible changes in marine and terrestrial ecological communities. The […] The post Grass is not always greener: enablers and barriers of non-native species governance and management in Antarctica appeared first on British Antarctic Survey.
Background Antarctic marine food webs are expected to be significantly impacted by future climate change. In particular, the recent rapid regional warming in the West Antarctic Peninsula has, and will […] The post The effects of feeding guild, seasonality, and warming on the gut microbiomes of Antarctic echinoderms appeared first on British Antarctic Survey.
How climate change impacts pathogens in the natural environment is a critical ecological question. Yet, little is known of how rapid ongoing climate change in Antarctica and Patagonia will influence […] The post Climate Change Projected to Double the Richness and Abundance of Soilborne Phytopathogenic Fungi in Southern Maritime Antarctica appeared first on British Antarctic…
New research warns of growing threat to fragile Antarctic plant ecosystems – but cutting emissions could prevent the worst outcomes. The post Climate change could double plant-harming fungi in Antarctica by end of century appeared first on British Antarctic Survey.
Speaker: Professor Jan Selby (Professor of International Politics and Climate Change, University of Leeds) The Cambridge Centre for Environment, Energy, and Natural Resource Governance (C-EENRG) is hosting a seminar series throughout the 2025-26 academic year. How does war matter for climate change and global climate…
We have conducted an ensemble of idealised climate overshoot simulations in a state-of-the-art Earth System Model in which global mean temperature is increased at a constant rate to global warming […] The post Response of ice sheets, sea-ice and sea level in climate stabilisation and reversibility simulations using a state-of-the-art Earth System Model appeared first…
Cephalopods play a central ecological role across all oceans and depths. However, under the current climate crisis, their physiology and behaviour are impacted, and we are beginning to comprehend the […] The post Developmental and transcriptomic responses of Hawaiian bobtail squid early stages to ocean warming and acidification appeared first on British Antarctic Survey.
Giant Antarctic iceberg calving is projected to increase with climate change, affecting ocean circulation, nutrient supply, and carbon cycling. These icebergs can stimulate primary production and influence Southern Ocean carbon […] The post Giant iceberg behaviour impacts regional biogeochemical cycling in the Southern Ocean appeared first on British Antarctic Survey.
Register here if attending online In this talk, I’ll focus on multiple dimension of the global housing crisis – affordability, homelessness, loss of homes due to climate crisis, mass destruction of homes or domicide during conflict, migration and the idea of a home, the contestation over land, and the persistence of forced evictions, discrimination and…
