MORE LOSERS THAN WINNERS IN FUTURE WARM ANTARCTICA
The waters of the Southern Ocean are projected to warm over the coming century, with potential adverse consequences for native cold-adapted organisms. An average warming of 0.4 of a degree is predicted by 2099, this warming will not be enough to allow any species from other neighbouring continents to invade or colonise Antarctica, it will cause the unique local species to change their distribution.
The seafloor animals of the Southern Ocean shelf have long been isolated by the deep ocean surrounding Antarctica and the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, with little scope for southward migration. How these largely endemic species will react to future projected warming is unknown British Antarctic Survey researchers examined the potential distribution of 963 species of seafloor marine invertebrates under a warming scenario produced by computer models. According to the study, while some species in some areas will benefit, 79% of the species native to the region will lose out, facing a significant reduction in suitable temperature habitat.
These findings highlight the species and regions most likely to respond significantly (negatively and positively) to warming and have important implications for future management of the region.

The 2008 issues didn’t disappear. They’ve gotten even worse now that we don’t even recognise them.
International Polar Bear Day
International Polar Bear Day
The 27th of February is reserved to celebrate the coolness of polar bears and to raise awareness about their conservation status. This holiday is organized by “Polar bear international”, organization that was founded in 1994. The holiday was first officially recognized in 2011, and since then, this organization is trying to educate the people and the world about how can we help polar bears not to…
