Climate change in textbooks
<p>Climate change is a potent threat to human society, biodiversity, and ecosystem stability. Yet a 2021 Gallup poll found that only 43% of Americans see climate change as a serious threat over their lifetimes. In this study, we analyze college biology textbook coverage of climate change from 1970 to 2019. We focus on four aspects for document analysis: 1) the amount of coverage, determined by counting the number of sentences within the climate change passage, 2) the start location of the passage in the book, 3) the categorization of sentences as addressing a description of the greenhouse effect, impacts of global warming, or actions to ameliorate climate change, and 4) the presentation of data in figures. We analyzed 57 textbooks. Our findings show that coverage of climate change has continually increased. However, the greatest increase occurred during the 1990s, despite the growing threats of climate change. The position of the climate change passage moved further back in the book, from the last 15% to the last 2.5% of pages. Over time, coverage shifted from a description of the greenhouse effect to focus mostly on effects of climate change; the most addressed impact was shifting ecosystems. Sentences dedicated to actionable solutions to climate change peaked in the 1990s at over 15% of the passage, then decreased in recent decades to 3%. Data figures present only global temperatures and CO2 levels prior to the year 2000, then include photographic evidence and changes to species distributions after 2000. We hope this study will alert curriculum designers and instructors to consider implicit messages communicated in climate change lessons.</p>

The effects of changing climate on skull size in the common shrew
<p><span>We assesed the impact of the changes in climate on the overall skull size (the proxy of the overall body size) and the seasonal changes of skull height (Dehnel's phenomenon) in skulls of the common shrew, Sorex araneus, collected over 50 years in the Białowieża Forest, E Poland. Overall skull size decreased, along with increasing temperatures and decreasing soil moisture, which determined the availability of the shrews' main food source, earthworms. The magnitude of Dehnel's phenomenon increased over time, indicating an increasing selection pressure on animals in winter. Two files include the data on 1) the size of the skulls of Sorex araneus collected in the Białowieża Forest between 1953 and 2004; and 2) the meteorological data from Białowieża, from 1952 to 2004.</span></p>

Data for: Projecting changes in the frequency and magnitude of ozone pollution events under uncertain climate sensitivity
<p>Climate change is projected to worsen ozone pollution over many populated regions, with larger impacts at higher concentrations. More intense and frequent ozone episodes risk setbacks to human health and environmental policy achievements. However, assessing these changes is complicated by uncertain climate sensitivity, closely related to climate model response, and internal variability in simulations projecting climate's influence on air quality. Here, leveraging a global modeling framework that one-way couples a human activity model, an Earth system model of intermediate complexity, and an atmospheric chemistry model, we investigate the role of climate sensitivity in climate-induced changes to high ozone pollution episodes in the United States using multiple greenhouse gas emissions scenarios, representations of climate sensitivity, and initial condition members. We bias correct and evaluate historical model simulations, identifying modeled and observed O<sub>3</sub> episodes using extreme value theory, and extend the approach to projections of mid- and end-century climate impacts. Results show that the influence of climate sensitivity can be as significant as that of greenhouse gas emissions scenario absent precursor emissions changes. Climate change is projected to increase the magnitude of the highest annually occurring O<sub>3</sub> concentrations by over 2.3 ppb on average across the U.S. at mid-century under a high climate sensitivity and moderate emissions scenario, but the increase is limited to less than 0.3 ppb under lower climate sensitivity. Further, we show that areas in the U.S. currently meeting air quality standards risk being pushed into non-compliance due to a climate-induced increase in frequency of high ozone days.</p>

Long-term decrease in colouration: A consequence of climate change?
<div>Climate change has been shown to affect fitness-related traits in a wide range of taxa; for instance, warming leads to phenological advancements in many plant and animal species. The influence of climate change on social and secondary sexual traits, that are associated with fitness due to their role as quality signals, is however unknown. Here, we use more than 5800 observations collected on two Mediterranean blue tit subspecies (<em>Cyanistes caeruleus caeruleus </em>and <em>C. c. ogliastrae</em>) to explore whether blue crown and yellow breast patch colourations have changed over the past 15 years. Our data suggests that colouration has become duller and less chromatic in both sexes. In addition, in the Corsican <em>C.c.ogliastrae</em>, but not in the mainland <em>C.c.caeruleus</em>, the decrease is associated with an increase in temperature at moult. Quantitative genetic analyses do not reveal any microevolutionary change in the colour traits along the study period, strongly suggesting that the observed change over time was caused by a plastic response to the environmental conditions. Overall, this study suggests that ornamental colourations could become less conspicuous due to warming, revealing climate change effects on sexual and social ornaments and calling for further research on the proximate mechanisms behind these effects.</div>

Outputs from Vector-borne diseases and climate change (VECLIMIT)- project
<p>Vector-borne diseases (VBDs) pose a significant global public health threat, influenced by intricate interactions between hosts, vectors, pathogens, and the environment. In northern Europe the climate is warming at over twice the rate of the global average, affecting ecosystems and their biota, and consequently drivers of VBD circulation and epidemiology. By integrating long-term disease incidence data, metagenomic analyses, empirical field studies, high-resolution climate data, and predictive spatiotemporal modelling, we approached to set baselines and to understand the main climate-dependencies of the drivers of the complex dynamics governing transmission and distribution of main VBDs in Finland. In addition, by mapping the knowledge, attitudes, and practices among Finnish residents related to VBDs in a changing climate to further understand the possible gaps and misunderstandings associated with VBDs that may hinder the uptake of protective measures. </p>

Mapping Tree Species Drought Sensitivity Under Climate Change
<p>Forests cover approximately 30% of Earth's land surface, absorb more carbon than all other terrestrial ecosystems, and provide trillions of dollars' worth of ecosystem services (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, 2005). However, climate change-induced droughts pose a significant threat to these vital ecosystems. As climate change intensifies, it is critical for our planning and management that we understand how and where trees will be the most threatened. Previous research has examined the effects of these droughts on forests at a global scale, but these large-scale analyses are not particularly helpful for land managers who often focus on specific regions and only a limited number of species. Our project addresses this gap by assessing species-specific sensitivity to increasingly severe and frequent droughts, considering the variations within their ranges. This localized information is crucial for land managers to develop targeted conservation strategies. By analyzing species-specific data, we demonstrate that the impacts of drier conditions are not uniform across or within species. Our findings suggest that effective management strategies must adopt a multifaceted and area-specific approach. To make our findings easily usable, we developed an interactive dashboard for land managers and the public. Here, users can find species-specific sensitivity maps that highlight the areas of greatest concern within manageable spaces, providing a valuable tool for informed decision-making. Our project contributes to the understanding of the potential future drought impacts on forests and emphasizes the need for targeted conservation efforts to mitigate the consequences of climate change on these essential ecosystems.</p>
