The Regional Impacts of Climate Change
Coasts in many countries currently face severe sea-level rise problems as a consequence of tectonically and anthropogenically induced subsidence. An estimated 46 million people per year currently are at risk of flooding from storm surges. Climate change will exacerbate these problems, leading to potential impacts on ecosystems and human coastal infrastructure. Large numbers of ...

Solutions What You Can Do Publications Links "When you energize the atmosphere, you cause more extremes. The physics of that are very clear." David Phillips, senior climatologist, Environment Canada Human induced global warming will not produce a uniform temperature rise everywhere - instead, it will force a fundamental change in the way the world's weather works. One of the expected features of ...

Great Lakes Coastal Wetlands: Science and Conservation – Canadian Wildlife Service, Ontario Region
Superior have been regulated at their outflows since the mid-1900s to permit consistent shipping and hydroelectric power production by reducing lake level variability. Both natural and human-induced fluctuations impact a broad range of wetland characteristics, ranging from water chemistry to plant community composition. Most often, vegetation is the first wetland component to be affected. ...
