Rapid environmental changes in the western antarctic peninsula region due to climate change and human activity
The Antarctic and the Southern Ocean are a critically important part of the Earth system. The climatic, physical, and biological properties of this region are closely linked to other parts of the global environment. 200 years of direct human impact, recent climate amelioration and changes in the main sources and circulation of biogenic compounds as well as accumulation of industrial contaminants have significantly affected the whole ecosystem. Particularly sensitive is the region of the Western Antarctic Peninsula, which is considered to be one of the hot spots of the Earth. In this paper, we review recent literature and compare it with historical data to estimate and predict the consequences of this process. The Antarctic ecosystems can no longer be regarded as pristine. Global as well as local human influence has transgressed the barriers isolating that continent from the rest of the World, causing previously observed changes to accelerate.
期刊介绍:
The Journal publishes original research papers and review articles. Researchers from all countries are invited to publish pure or applied ecological, environmental, biogeographical, zoological, botanical, paleontological, biometrical-biomathematical and quantitative ecological or multidisciplinary agricultural research of international interest on its pages.
The focus is on topics such as:
-Community, ecosystem and global ecology-
Biometrics, theoretical- and quantitative ecology-
Multidisciplinary agricultural and environmental research-
Sustainable and organic agriculture, natural resource management-
Ecological methodology, monitoring and modeling-
Biodiversity and ecosystem research, microbiology, botany and zoology-
Biostatistics and modeling in epidemiology, public health and veterinary-
Earth history, paleontology, extinctions, biogeography, biogeochemistry-
Conservation biology, environmental protection-
Ecological economics, natural capital and ecosystem services-
Climatology, meteorology, climate change, climate-ecology.
The Journal publishes theoretical papers as well as application-oriented contributions and practical case studies. There is no bias with regard to taxon or geographical area. Purely descriptive papers (like only taxonomic lists) will not be accepted for publication.
