Melting glaciers could speed up carbon emissions into the atmosphere

Credit: Lee Brown The loss of glaciers worldwide enhances the breakdown of complex carbon molecules in rivers, potentially contributing further to climate change. An international research team led by the University of Leeds has for the first time linked glacier-fed mountain rivers with higher rates of plant material decomposition, a major process in the global carbon cycle. As mountain glaciers melt, water is channelled into rivers downstream. But with global warming accelerating the loss of glaciers, rivers have warmer water temperatures and are less prone to variable water flow and sediment movement. These conditions are then much more favourable for fungi to establish and grow.

Climate Change Damaging North America s Largest Temperate Rainforest, Harming Salmon

Climate Change Damaging North America’s Largest Temperate Rainforest, Harming Salmon CU Denver’s Brian Buma joined researchers to evaluate the region’s ecosystem of 200-foot trees and deep soils March 11, 2021 found that a remote region of North America’s largest temperate rainforest is experiencing changes to its ecosystem due to climate change. Brian Buma, a researcher and professor of integrated biology at University of Colorado Denver, co-leads the research network that outlined the changes in a new paper. North America’s largest remaining temperate rainforest, located in Southeast Alaska, is one of the most pristine and intact ecosystems. The entire ecosystem stretches well over 2,000 km from north to south and stores more carbon in its forests than any other.

Temperate rainforest s distinct ecosystems altered by climate change - SFU News

Research published this week in the journal Bioscience takes an interdisciplinary approach to evaluating land-sea interactions in the northeast Pacific coastal temperate rainforest (NPCTR). The paper evaluates the land-to-ocean flow of carbon and nutrients in the NPCTR, their influence on nearshore marine ecosystems, and how these connections are altered by climate change. The paper is the first from a team of North American researchers looking at these issues throughout the entirety of the temperate rainforest – instead of being constrained by borders and administrative jurisdictions – and sets the foundation for future research. “Ecosystems don’t recognize borders,” says SFU forest ecologist Ken Lertzman, professor emeritus, who is part of the research team, along with PhD student Ian Giesbrecht and scientists from university, federal and provincial research agencies in Canada and the United States.
