Comparing the dates Thoreau recorded of flowers in bloom with those today shows powerful evidence that global warming is taking place, say researchers.

Climate change seems a remote thing to many people, something they think about occasionally, if at all. Their day-to-day weather mostly varies as it has in the past, and they have a good idea of what the seasons will bring. However, for the people who live around the shores of the Arctic Ocean, climate change is plain to see. The dramatic decline of summer and autumn sea ice during the past decade is having profound and sustained impacts on Northern weather and climate. In Alaska, nowhere is this more evident than at Barrow. climate.gov
Birds and Climate Change: On the Move
| |
Nearly 60% of the 305 species found in North America in winter are on the move, shifting their ranges northward by an average of 35 miles. Audubon scientists analyzed 40 years of citizen-science Christmas Bird Count data — and their findings provide new and powerful evidence that global warming is having a serious impact on natural systems. Northward movement was detected among species of every type, including more than 70 percent of highly adaptable forest and feeder birds.

In phenology, season creep is observed changes in the timing of the seasons, [1] [2] such as earlier indications of spring [3] widely observed in temperate areas across the Northern Hemisphere. [4] [5] Phenological records analyzed by climate scientists have shown significant temporal trends in the observed time of seasonal events, [6] [7] from the end of the 20th century and continuing into the 21st century. [5] [8] In Europe, season creep has been associated with the arrival of spring moving up by approximately one week in a recent 30 year period. [9] [10] Other studies have put the rate of season creep measured by plant phenology in the range of 2–3 days per decade advancement in spring, and 0.3–1.6 days per decade delay in autumn, over the past 30–80 years.
