A new study from the University of Southampton sheds light on the impact climate change is having on marine environments in a relatively recent global phenomenon known as 'tropicalisation'. In the ocean, tropical species are moving from the equator towards the poles as sea temperatures rise. Meanwhile, temperate species are receding as it gets too warm, they face increased competition for habitat, and new predators arrive on the scene, among other factors.

Emissions plans must consider risk of global warming continuing after net zero
Significant warming could still occur after the world reaches net-zero carbon emissions, warn the authors of a new study. The study, led by Imperial College London and University of Exeter researchers, suggests that high uncertainty in how the climate system will continue to react to global warming even after emissions are reduced means urgent action is imperative.

Experts predict ’catastrophic ecosystem collapse’ of UK forests within the next 50 years if action not taken
Other threats to UK forests include competition with society for water, viral diseases, and extreme weather affecting forest management. The next 50 years will bring huge changes to UK forests: the threats they face, the way that we manage them, and the benefits they deliver to society. Dr Eleanor Tew, visiting researcher at Cambridge's Department of Zoology and Head of Forest Planning at Forestry England A team of experts from across Europe has produced a list of 15 over-looked and emerging issues that are likely to have a significant impact on UK forests over the next 50 years.
