Deciphering Climate-Driven Changes In Planktonic Diatom Communities In Lake Superior, Amy Kireta
Deciphering Climate-Driven Changes In Planktonic Diatom Communities In Lake Superior, Amy Kireta
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Climate change is affecting lake systems throughout the world, including Lake Superior, the world’s largest lake by surface area. Climate-driven physical changes in Lake Superior are well documented, but there is still substantial uncertainty of how recent biological changes are related to climate change. This research addresses these uncertainties using a variety of approaches to understand the effects of modern climate-driven changes on Lake Superior diatom communities. First, I developed models for environmental variables related to diatom abundance using 10 years of summer monitoring data. Second, I investigated changes in fossilized diatom relative abundances before, during, and after the Medieval …

Coastal Maine Climate Futures Report, University Of Maine Climate Change Institute
Coastal Maine Climate Futures Report, University Of Maine Climate Change Institute
General University of Maine Publications
Climate and weather exert a critical influence on the health of Maine’s people, ecosystems and economy. Across coastal communities, where fishing, forestry, tourism, and agriculture serve as the economic backbone, the changing climate poses near and long-term challenges. This report provides a basis for future planning by developing plausible climate scenarios for the next 20 years – the period 2020–2040. The plausible scenarios follow an examination of historical climate trends, climate–commodity connections, and sources of climate variability that affect Maine. This report was produced with generous support from the Russell Grinnell Memorial Trust.
