Impact of climate change on sensitive marine and extreme terrestrial ecosystems: Recent progresses and future challenges
Abstract Climate change is the greatest global threat to ecosystems on the Earth. Previous studies assessed the impacts of climate change on sensitive tropical coral reefs, extreme environments in European Alps and the Arctic with a focus on snow and permafrost. This article reflects on the past dev...

Abstract Climate change is the greatest global threat to ecosystems on the Earth.
