温室效应的阴影笼罩世界各地,洛基山脉也不例外,山花的数量与分布位置随着温度的改变而不同,温度升高令花粉减少,进而缩减了花的数量.
In the Rocky Mountains of central Colorado, the forces of nature create a landscape of L pine lakes. High altitude pumps tiling with life and mountain medals busting with wild flowers. It is a mix / these beautiful wild flower fields that one scientist has already found alarming evidence about the potential impact of global warming. John Heart, a professor of Environmental Science of the University of California Berkley runs the experiment to determine what would happen if the temperature was just three degrees warmer here year round. Like the forecast effect of global warming.
That heating effect will induce dramatic affects on these sub plain medals causing loss of plants / we / especially value here the follower in plains.
John Heart has come here each summer since the 1970s, examining factors affecting life in the spiritual ecosystem.
This heating is actually quite settled when not heating a lot, it’s only a few degrees. But it’s causing the follower in plains to produce fewer followers and to grow less abundantly.
His set up is relatively simple. Low power electric heater suspended above the mountain metal hit the ground and the plant life beneath three degrees’ warmer than the surrounding area. The heaters are automatically and precisely controlled, they’ve been on consistently day and night, winter, spring, summer and fall since1991. In his global warming experiment, he suspended heaters in a grid pattern to create heated plots then unheated plots. Back and forth, so he can judge the effects side by side. The difference three degrees of separation makes in flowers and sedge bush is easy to see.
They suck tooth(es) out of the plant.
In the unheated natural area, sedge bushes are a source of moisture from army of thirsty insects. They keep sedge bush under control.
So they have little mouth pieces, suck away at the nutrient.
But just a few feet away, sedge brushes under the heater growth for a better with fewer bugs.
Because in profuse growth of the sedge bush.
Well, it’s good for the sedge brush, it is not good for its plant neighbors. Followers fear the effectual. In natural areas, followers grow sick like they always do here, but a few feet away where it’s three degrees’ warmer, followers are not as abundant.
he metals set of looking flush and extremely followers are now actually rather agric.
If global warming are long term climate change does increase the year round temperature here just a few degrees, John Heart predicts in decades to come. Followers could be crowded up by sedge bush.
Global warming is more than just ecological catastrophe, it was the human catastrophe all of its dimensions.
