According to research just published on 8 / 1, rapid warming in Europe made many species of butterflies and birds can not adapt and have to move to cooler climates, and caused serious concern for the survival of many plant species on mountains Apls.

Các nghiên cứu trên tạp chí Nature Climate Change (Biến đổi khí hậu trong thiên nhiên) là nghiên cứu lớn nhất ở dạng này được tiến hành về ảnh hưởng của sự ấm lên toàn cầu đối với đa dạng sinh học ở châu Âu.

The research team led by Professor Vincent Devictor of Center National for Research Scientific of French (CNRS) discovered that lead in the period 1990-2008, the average temperature in Europe has increased by one degree C.

This increase was particularly high, more than about 25% compared to an average increase globally in the last century.

According to research, to survive in the new, the familiar cold climate species will migrate to 249km to the north. However, due to various obstacles, the butterflies are just moving the birds is 114km and 37km.

These conclusions are drawn from observations of a network of thousands of amateur naturalists, equivalent to an impressive time of 1.5 million hours of field work.

The study does not indicate the specific species affected by climate change, but that the risk to decrease the number of these species is very clear.

Climate warming has affected the food chain in this area living species, especially butterflies and birds eat plants.

The second study also published in Nature Climate Change examined 867 specimens from 60 mountains across Europe in the warmest decade ever in the continent.

At the local scale, no significant changes in the study period 2001-2008, but the whole picture of the continent, the change is very clear.

The psychrophilic species commonly found in the Alps has to give way to warm the preferred species.

This study is the largest study ever conducted of plants in Europe, gathering 32 research institutes from 13 countries.
