      Global warming is a nonlinear process, and temperature may increase in a stepwise manner. Periods of abrupt warming can trigger persistent changes in the state of ecosystems, also called regime shifts. The responses of organisms to abrupt warming and associated regime shifts can be unlike responses to periods of slow or moderate change. Understanding of nonlinearity in the biological responses to ...

    • Demographic effects of extreme weather events: snow storms, breeding success, and population growth rate in a long-lived Antarctic seabird 

      Descamps, Sebastian; Tarroux, Arnaud; Varpe, Øystein; Yoccoz, Nigel Gilles; Tveraa, Torkild; Lorentsen, Svein-Håkon (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2014-12-23)
      Weather extremes are one important element of ongoing climate change, but their impacts are poorly understood because they are, by definition, rare events. If the frequency and severity of extreme weather events increase, there is an urgent need to understand and predict the ecological consequences of such events. In this study, we aimed to quantify the effects of snow storms on nest survival ...
