Statistical analysis of global surface air temperature and sea level using cointegration methods [PDF]
Global sea levels are rising which is widely understood as a consequence of thermal expansion and melting of glaciers and land-based ice caps. Due to physically-based models being unable to simulate observed sea level trends, semi-empirical models have ...

Modelling predicts that heat stress and not drought will limit wheat yield in Europe [PDF]
, 2010 Global warming is characterised by shifts in weather patterns and increases in extreme weather events. New crop cultivars with specific physiological traits will therefore be required if climate change is not to result in losses of yield and food ...

The effects of changing climate on faunal depth distributions determine winners and losers
, 2014 Changing climate is predicted to impact all depths of the global oceans, yet projections of range shifts in marine faunal distributions in response to changing climate seldom evaluate potential shifts in depth distribution.
