| Description: |
Though the general trends and risks of a warming climate are well-known, researchers remain uncertain about the social and environmental impacts it will cause. Because of this uncertainty, important questions relating to food security, water resources, biodiversity, and other socio-economic issues remain unresolved. How extreme will the weather changes be? How will these changes impact diverse ecosystems? Answering these and other critical questions requires new approaches that can help governments and individuals better respond to changing climate conditions. [Source: National Science Foundation]
