action plans contain deadlines by which the plan must be ready to start the action(s) and the targets are to be reached. Climate Action Plan Biodiversity
Thuiller et al. analyzed the consequences of anticipated climate change on plant, bird, and mammal phylogenetic diversity (PD) across Europe. They concluded that species loss will not be clade specific across the Tree of Life, and that there will not...
To address the mounting destruction caused by floods in climate-vulnerable regions, we propose Street to Cloud, a machine learning pipeline for incorporating crowdsourced ground truth data into the segmentation of satellite imagery of floods. We prop...

Characterizing the Martian atmosphere is an essential objective to understand its meteorology and its climate. The lower atmosphere (< 40 km) and middle atmosphere (40-80 km) of Mars appear dynamically coupled at much higher levels than in the case...
Mar 13, 2025 · World Water Day is held on 22 March every year. Learn why this day is so important and why this year's theme, Glacier Preservation, will highlight critical links between water and climate …
Jul 8, 2025 · Japan is reimagining water infrastructure with tech, transparency, and collaboration to boost resilience amid ageing systems and climate challenges.
I know. But come on, man. This is just...dumb. Unless the business model is "North American skiing will be killed by climate change in the next 15 years, so soak 'em while ya got 'em..."...
Accurate rainfall data are crucial for effective climate services, especially in Sub-Saharan Africa, where agriculture depends heavily on rain-fed systems. The sparse distribution of rain-gauge networks necessitates reliance on satellite and reanalys...
Buffaloes are farm animals that contribute to food security by providing high quality meat and milk. They can better tolerate the adverse effects of global climate change on their meat and milk production. Despite their advantages, buffaloes are heav...
In light of climate change's impacts on forests, including extreme drought and late-frost, leading to vitality decline and regional forest die-back, we assess univariate drought and late-frost risks and perform a joint risk analysis in Bavaria, Germa...

Marine mammals are increasingly vulnerable to human disturbance and climate change. Their diving behavior leads to limited visual access during data collection, making studying the abundance and distribution of marine mammals challenging. In theory,...
Vital parts of the climate system, such as the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, are at risk even within the aspired aims of the Paris Agreement to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 -- 2°C. These so-called natural tipping elements are characterized by ra...
Anyone else in a cold climate thinking they will definitely not be letting outside air into their house right now? Spring cleaning challenge is cute, but I will be reinterpreting that into something ...
Due to climate-induced changes, many habitats are experiencing range shifts away from their traditional geographic locations (Piguet, 2011). We propose a solution to accurately model whether bird species are present in a specific habitat through the...
