Ghost forests


Ghost forests, like the one on the Pacific coast in Neskowin, Oregon, USA, pictured on the cover, are created by the submergence of low-lying forest land and are one of the most striking illustrations of climate change impacts. In this issue, the physical and ecological mechanisms that influence sea-level driven land conversion of forests to marshes are reviewed, with a focus on the Atlantic coast of North America.


译:幽灵森林

幽灵森林,如图所示的美国俄勒冈州Neskowin太平洋沿岸的幽灵森林,是由低洼的林地被淹没而形成,是气候变化影响最引人注目的例证之一。在这个问题上,回顾了影响海平面驱动的森林土地转变为沼泽的物理和生态机制,重点关注北美大西洋沿岸。

Editorial | 28 May 2019

Lobbying for and against climate solutions

New voices in the climate movement appear keenly aware that they face well-funded, long-entrenched interests inhibiting sensible climate change policy. Getting a grip on when and how lobbying impacts policy is key to translating calls for ‘climate action’ into feasible policies.

译:对于气候解决方案的游说与反对

气候运动中的新声音似乎敏锐地意识到,他们面临着资金充足,长期存在的利益,阻碍了合理的气候变化政策。掌握游说何时以及如何影响政策是将“气候行动”的呼吁转化为可行政策的关键。

The rhetorical limitations of the #FridaysForFuture movement

The students striking for action on climate change admirably display civic engagement on a pressing issue. Nevertheless, their movement’s message focuses far too heavily on the need to ‘listen to science’, which is at most a point of departure for answering the ethical and political questions central to climate action.

Darrick Evensen

译:#FridaysForFuture运动的局限

在气候变化方面采取行动的学生,其对紧迫问题的公民参与令人钦佩。 然而,他们的运动信息过于关注“听科学”的必要性,但这最多只是回答气候行动的核心伦理和政治问题的出发点。

The broader importance of #FridaysForFuture

The #FridaysForFuture campaign has prompted unprecedented numbers of youth to join the climate movement around the world. This growing movement is important beyond its potential impact on climate policy because it is creating a cohort of citizens who will be active participants in democracy.

Dana R. Fisher

译:#FridaysForFuture更广义的重要性

#FridaysForFuture活动促使大量青年人加入世界各地的气候运动,规模前所未有。这种不断增长的运动很重要,因为它除了对气候政策的潜在影响外,正在创造一批将成为民主的积极参与者的公民。

Climate-conscious consumers and the buy, bank, burn program

Manipulation of European Union emission trading systems (ETS) by the buy, bank, burn program compensates unregulated emissions while regulated sectors carry a large part of the burden. This distorts the balance between regulated firms and non-regulated projects, so parties outside the EU ETS can be virtuous at the cost of others.

Reyer Gerlagh & Roweno J. R. K. Heijmans

译:注重气候的消费者以及“买入-银行-燃烧”计划

“买入-银行-燃烧”计划补偿了欧盟排放交易系统(ETS)不受管制的排放,而受监管的部门则承担了很大一部分负担。 这扭曲了受监管企业与非监管项目之间的平衡,因此欧盟排放交易体系以外的各方可以以其他方式为代价。

Children teach their parents

Public education for youth can influence future generations, but it typically does not create outcomes for those who need to vote on policies and create change today. A new study suggests that well-designed instructional units can foster family interactions that increase adult concern about climate change.

Martha C. Monroe

译:孩子们教育父母

青年的公共教育可以影响后代,但它通常不会为那些需要在政策上投票并在今天创造变革的人创造成果。一项新研究表明,精心设计的教学单元可以促进家庭互动,增加成年人对气候变化的关注。

Costs of climate politics

Corporations devote massive amounts of resources to lobby policy makers in the United States. New research highlights the channels through which direct lobbying has blocked climate legislation, and evaluates the resulting social welfare loss.

Fabien Prieur

译:气候政治的代价

公司投入大量资源来游说美国的政策制定者。新的研究突出了直接游说阻碍气候立法的渠道,并评估了由此产生的社会福利损失。

Old Arctic carbon stability

The Arctic stores vast amounts of soil carbon, much of which is likely to be lost to the atmosphere as the climate warms. A clever new analytical approach suggests that even carbon that has been stored for hundreds to thousands of years is vulnerable to warming.

Richard Conant

译:老北极碳稳定

北极地区储存了大量的土壤碳,随着气候变暖,大部分土壤碳可能会流失到大气中。一种聪明的新分析方法表明,即使储存数百至数千年的碳也容易受到变暖的影响。

The potential cost of nudges

‘Nudge’ interventions, such as green energy defaults, may be simple and cost-effective ways to address climate change and can complement more substantive climate policies. But, new research finds that information about a nudge policy lowers support for a carbon tax, unless that nudge policy is described as part of a comprehensive approach.

Alexander Maki

译:“推动”的潜在成本

“推动”干预措施,例如绿色能源违约,可能是应对气候变化的简单且具有成本效益的方法,可以补充更实质性的气候政策。但是,新的研究发现,关于推动政策的信息降低了对碳税的支持,除非将推动政策描述为综合方法的一部分。

The social cost of lobbying over climate policy

Political interests play a key role in the passage of climate policy. This study quantifies that political lobbying reduced the probability of enacting the Waxman–Markey bill in the United States by 13 percentage points, representing US$60 billion in expected climate damages.

Kyle C. Meng & Ashwin Rode

译:游说气候政策的社会成本

政治利益在气候政策的通过中发挥着关键作用。该研究量化了政治游说,使在美国颁布Waxman-Markey法案的可能性降低了13个百分点,预计气候损失达600亿美元。

Resistance to ocean acidification in coral reef taxa is not gained by acclimatization

Calcifying marine species are threatened by ocean acidification. A year-long study of calcifying fluid chemistry shows that reef species, both corals and calcifying macroalgal species, were not able to adapt to ocean acidification.

S. Comeau, C. E. Cornwall[…] & M. T. McCulloch

译:珊瑚礁类群不能通过适应环境提高对海洋酸化的抵抗力

正在钙化的海洋物种受到海洋酸化的威胁。一项为期一年的钙化液化学研究表明,珊瑚物种,珊瑚和钙化大型藻类,都无法适应海洋酸化。

Nudging out support for a carbon tax

Behavioural interventions aimed at curbing carbon emissions are inexpensive and easy to implement but can offer the false promise of a quick fix. Across six experiments, the authors show that exposure to a green energy nudge diminishes support for carbon taxes.

David Hagmann, Emily H Ho & George Loewenstein

译:推动对碳税的支持

旨在抑制碳排放的行为干预既便宜又易于实施,但却提供快速解决的错误承诺。作者表明,在六个实验中,绿色能源推动减少了对碳税的支持。
