The Earth’s climate system is highly nonlinear The above is again getting the attention it deserves... Significance: we have no idea what we are in the process to trigger, as our current models can't simulate non-linearity... In the comments some studies on the matter #climate #uöäü1non-linear

William Dwight Billings was born OTD in 1910. A founding figure in physiological ecology, he was committed to a view of ecosystems as “holocoenotic’—the ecosystem conceived as a network of radically interconnected relationships among biotic and abiotic elements. 🐋🌱🦫🦋🧪 #HistSTM 🌎

Do #ForestEurope indicators work for #biodiversity? We tested them against field-sampled multi-taxon data (a lot of them!) and ... only some of them moderately relate to species richness! Read the recent article led by #YoanPaillet doi.org/10.1016/j.bi... Time for a data-driven revision!

The trophic structure was relatively resistant to acidification but not to warming. Warmed systems experienced a reorganization of trophic structure that was not rescued by functional redundancy or other stabilizing responses. Such inflexibility may be a precursor of ecosystem collapse

Seems almost anticlimactic but maybe this is what it will take for some to realize that climate change is a real threat, including here in New Mexico. Not data. Not projections. Not attribution studies of "natural" events. But, a "Dear Policyholder" non-renewal letter from their insurance carrier.
