INITIAL DISCUSSION:

Since biome location is determined by temperature and precipitation patterns, climatic changes pose a threat to the continued existence of biomes in their present locations. It would not take great changes in climate to make it impossible for a given biome to continue to exist in its current location. Beset by such climatic changes, a biome would seemingly face one of two fates:

cease to exist or migrate following the changing climatic conditions.

a. What circumstances would allow the biome to successfully migrate?

b. What circumstances would simply destroy the biome and its biological diversity?

STUDENT POST 1:

What circumstances would allow the biome to successfully migrate? A biome could successfully migrate with these factors: the Coriolis Effect, the second law of thermodynamics, precipitation and temperature, seasonal variations in sunspots, and human impact. What circumstances would simply destroy the biome and its biological diversity? There is a range of tolerance that organisms can take. Depending on the temperature and the water type effects a biome and its biological diversity. The range of tolerance effects everything. Also, if there is a drought or if there is too much rain it can destroy a biome. Overall climate change affects both the success for a biome to migrate and the destruction of a biome and its biological diversity.

As in 6.2 states, biomes are determined by climate. You have to have the right temperature and rainfall for the biome to migrate. You typically have these weather bands that kind of rotate. This goes warm air to cold air that cause wet air going into dry air and dropping its gathered precipitation. Factors that would help a bio dome migrate would be eco systems changing at the same rate. This would allow the animals and plants to slowly shift into the new climate. We can help this naturally accruing phenomenon with conservation. Things that rapidly cause our ecosystems to change and would kill a biome are pollution, logging, over fishing, population and general over usage of resources. With the cycle of the ever changing the environment, biomes are essential for our lively hood.
