New Classification Marks Paradigm Shift in how Conservationists Tackle Climate Change

New Classification Marks Paradigm Shift in how Conservationists Tackle Climate Change Transformation-oriented projects involved translocation of trees or other plants, commonly in forest ecosystems Newswise NEW YORK (January 14) A new study co-authored by researchers from the Wildlife Conservation Society’s (WCS) Global Conservation Program and the University of British Columbia (UBC) Faculty of Forestry introduces a classification called Resistance-Resilience-Transformation (RRT) that enables the assessment of whether and to what extent a management shift toward transformative action is occurring in conservation. The team applied this classification to 104 climate adaptation projects funded by the WCS Climate Adaptation Fund over the past decade and found differential responses toward transformation over time and across ecosystems, with more transformative actions applied in forested ecosystems.

Crocodiles Survived the Dinosaur-Ending Asteroid and Have Barely Changed Since

Incredibly, crocodiles survived the deadly asteroid that killed off the dinosaurs around 66 million years ago and have barely changed in appearance since then. In fact, they look very similar to crocodiles that roamed the Earth about 200 million years ago during the Jurassic period. Based on new research, it is believed that since their body shape was so “versatile” and “efficient”, they were able to survive the massive changes in the environment caused by the asteroid impact. Even though crocodiles prefer to live in warmer climates, they are still able to live in total darkness and can survive in or out of the water (they can hold their breath for up to an hour underwater). And since their bodies are so strong and tough, they can survive many types of injuries.
