Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People living in the Great Lakes region are already feeling the effects of a changing climate. Shifts in seasonal temperatures and precipitation patterns could have dramatic impacts on the economy, ecology, and quality of life. In this illuminating and thorough volume, leading scholars address the challenge of preparing for climate change in the region, where decision makers from various sectors—government, agriculture, recreation, and tourism—must increasingly be aware of the need to incorporate climate change into their short- and long-term planning. The chapters in this revealing book, written by some of the foremost climate change scholars in North America, outline the major trends in the climate of the Great Lakes region, how humans might cope with the uncertainty of climate change impacts, and examples of on-the-ground projects that have addressed these issues.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Agriculture is particularly susceptible to climate change, as inferred from large historical variations in crop production in response to past climate variability. The major goal of this dissertation is to evaluate the spatial variability of the impacts of projected future climate change on crop production in a high latitude region. Corn and soybean production in the Upper Great Lakes Region (UGLR) of the United States, encompassing the states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, serves as the case study."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As climate change unfolds it is necessary to gain a better understanding of how tree growth is affected by contemporary climate. This can provide information about both prerecorded climate and future growth responses to climate change. Yet, tree growth and its relationship with climate remains understudied in one section of the northeastern United States, the Great Lakes Region. Here, I use dendrochronology to (1) reconstruct 500 years of moisture conditions on South Manitou Island, Lake Michigan, (2) compare growth and growth-climate relationships within/among nine species along a latitudinal gradient from southern Indiana to Upper Michigan, and (3) forecast future growth under climate change. I find that (1) while drought was a regular occurrence since the mid-1500s, the most severe droughts and the most variable conditions overall occurred in the 20th century, (2) the predominant climatic factors associated with growth in the region are summer temperature (negative relationships) and summer precipitation (positive relationships), and that the influence of these factors was strongest in the south, and (3) future growth was projected to decline over the rest of this century as climate change proceeds, independent of latitude.

This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides a state-of-the-art review of the climate change effects on lake hydrodynamics and water quality. Most of the engineering cases in this book deal with the ability of existing infrastructure to cope with extreme weather conditions. The case studies are intended to illustrate the advancement in modeling research on lake hydrodynamics, thermal stratification, pollutant transport, and water quality by highlighting the climate change aspects in the application of these techniques. Topics include climate and lake responses, lake thermodynamics, large-scale circulation, wind-waves on large lakes, great lakes ice cover, and water quality.

Download or read book The Great Lakes Water Wars written by Peter Annin and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2009-08-25 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Lakes are the largest collection of fresh surface water on earth, and more than 40 million Americans and Canadians live in their basin. Will we divert water from the Great Lakes, causing them to end up like Central Asia's Aral Sea, which has lost 90 percent of its surface area and 75 percent of its volume since 1960? Or will we come to see that unregulated water withdrawals are ultimately catastrophic? Peter Annin writes a fast-paced account of the people and stories behind these upcoming battles. Destined to be the definitive story for the general public as well as policymakers, The Great Lakes Water Wars is a balanced, comprehensive look behind the scenes at the conflicts and compromises that are the past-and future-of this unique resource.

Book excerpt: Wilderness, Water, and Rust: A Journey toward Great Lakes Resilience asks us to consider what we value about life in the Great Lakes region and how caring for its remarkable ecosystems might help us imagine new, whole futures. Weaving together memories from her life in the upper Midwest with nearly fifty years of environmental policy advocacy work, Jane Elder provides a uniquely moving insider’s perspective into the quest to protect the Great Lakes and surrounding public lands, from past battles to protect Michigan wilderness and shape early management strategies for the national lakeshores to present fights against toxic pollution and climate change. She argues that endless cycles of resource exploitation and boom and bust created a ‘rust belt’ legacy that still threatens our capacity for resilience. The author lays out the challenges that lie ahead and invites us to imagine bold new strategies through which we might thrive.
