Male Fertility of Species may be the Chink in Armor Against Climate Change

A new study reports that male fertility might prove to be a weakness in the fight against climate change, suggesting that male fertility loss at high temperatures implies that several species—particularly those limited to the tropics—may be highly susceptible to climate change.

Ecological Assemblages More Resistant to Environmental Change than Species Compositions

The study sheds new light upon an ongoing debate among conservation biologists: whether we should conserve sets of endangered species, or whether we should preserve ecosystem functioning, that is, the processes inherent to ecosystems, including those that benefit humans - also called ecosystem services.

Geoengineering Earth's Atmosphere: Potential Effects of Climate Intervention on Ecology

Nine of the hottest years in human history have occurred in the past decade. Without a major shift in this climate trajectory, the future of life on Earth is in question, which poses a new question: Should humans, whose fossil fueled society is driving climate change, use technology to put the brakes on global warming?
