NOC CONTRIBUTES TO LATEST IPCC REPORT ASSESSING IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE
Posted: 3 March 2022
Earlier this week, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released
its next report Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability.
The report assesses the impacts of climate change, and reviews vulnerabilities,
including capacities and limits of the natural world and human societies to
adapt to climate change.
National Oceanography Centre (NOC) scientists Professor Stephanie Henson and Dr
Andrew Yool were contributing authors of Chapter 3 of the report, titled ‘Oceans
and Coastal Ecosystems and their Services’.
Discussing the recent IPCC report, Professor Stephanie Henson, principal
scientist at the NOC, said: “The second report from the IPCC emphasises that
climate change is a major threat to human wellbeing and the health of the
planet. It has highlighted that climate change is continuing to cause
substantial damage to open ocean marine ecosystems.
Global warming, combined with habitat destruction and growing urbanisation, has
already caused widespread disruption to nature, and about half of the world’s
marine species are migrating pole-ward in an attempt to survive in cooler
waters. We have already noticed shifts in the timing of the annual spring bloom
of phytoplankton, which is getting earlier, much as the spring arrival of
flowering plants on land is getting earlier.
“Ocean warming and acidification have adversely affected food production from
fisheries in some oceanic regions, and forecast levels of climate change, plus
habitat destruction, will lead to the loss of much of the world’s coral reefs
and low-lying coastal wetlands. The next 20-50 years will see a change in the
Earth’s climate, and how that will affect nature and humans will depend on how
plants, animals and people adapt.
There is a rapidly closing window of opportunity to both reduce greenhouse gas
emissions and develop climate resilient adaptation measures. By conserving,
protecting and restoring ocean ecosystems, we can reduce the vulnerability of
biodiversity to climate change.”
