Global Climate Change01:50

Global Climate Change

24.4K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

What is Climate?01:16

What is Climate?

18.6K
Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss01:57

Adaptations that Reduce Water Loss

25.6K
Though evaporation from plant leaves drives transpiration, it also results in loss of water. Because water is critical for photosynthetic reactions and other cellular processes, evolutionary pressures on plants in different environments have driven the acquisition of adaptations that reduce water loss.

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress

13.5K
Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.

Levels of Use of a GIS01:29

Levels of Use of a GIS

52
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) operate across three levels of application, each representing an increasing degree of complexity: data management, analysis, and prediction. These levels reflect the expanding functionality and versatility of GIS technology in handling spatial data for diverse purposes.Data ManagementAt its foundational level, GIS serves as a tool for data management, enabling the input, storage, retrieval, and organization of spatial data. This level is often employed in...

Summary

Regional ontologies enhance climate action policymaking by integrating diverse perspectives beyond the nation-state. This approach utilizes transnational data and community systems for a climate-adapted future.

Area of Science:

  • Climate Change Policy
  • Regional Governance
  • Environmental Science

Background:

  • Climate change policymaking often overlooks regional dimensions.
  • Existing governance structures are frequently nation-state-centric.
  • A regional lens offers underexplored opportunities for climate action.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore integrating regional ontologies into climate governance.
  • To enhance analytical power by moving beyond nation-state and formal policy processes.
  • To highlight diverse adaptation issues and perspectives at the regional scale.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual analysis of regional ontologies in climate policymaking.
  • Theoretical framing of climate action beyond traditional science-policy binaries.
  • Examination of resilient regions as a case study for regional approaches.

Main Results:

  • Regional ontologies can reveal adaptation issues obscured by national perspectives.
  • Transnational data infrastructure and community-led systems can support regional ontologies.
  • A regional scale allows for reframing collective visions for climate adaptation.

Conclusions:

  • Integrating regional ontologies is crucial for effective climate action.
  • A broader theoretical framework is needed for climate governance.
  • Community-led data and diverse perspectives strengthen regional climate adaptation strategies.
