Climate change
We are in the midst of a climate crisis. Our climate system is undergoing a dramatic number of changes, many of which can be attributed to anthropogenic influences, including greenhouse gas emission-induced changes to global surface temperatures, precipitation, glacier mass loss, sea levels, salt intrusion, and ocean heat content.

What we study
Our climate system is undergoing dramatic changes, many of which can be attributed to anthropogenic influences. These include greenhouse gas emission-induced changes to global surface temperatures, precipitation and Arctic snow melt dates. At NIOO, we use our expertise to understand the impact of climate change on biodiversity, and the capacity for natural systems to help mitigate climate change. We carry out laboratory experiments, large-scale mesocosm and population studies, comparative approaches, and predictive modelling.
