I am looking for an article on the impacts of climate change in ecosystems services in West Africa
Kindly go through the following RG links.
Chapter The Impacts of Climate Change on Ecosystem Services and Resu...
Article Impact of climate change on biodiversity and associated key ...
Casey Ryan and Caroline Lehmann from the University of Edinburgh are both working on ES in Africa. Their research might be of interest to you.
Cheers
Il existe des interactions entre le réchauffement climatique et la biodiversité. Le réchauffement climatique peut influencer l'action des espèces végétales sur le sol, impacter leur bilan carbone, forcer le déplacement de certaines espèces fauniques. Par ailleurs, les modifications de la biodiversité, peuvent, malheureusement contribuer au réchauffement climatique en affaiblissant les capacités de stockage et de faible émission de l'écosystème considéré.
Just think about draughts and how would affect to food production or water scarcity affecting river systems, or torrential rains flushing away valued nutrients and promoting eutrophication. I would focus on some of the ES rather than the whole.
Personally, I think that we should speak in terms of climate disturbances and/or global warming. In this sense, I think that the impacts depends on the severity of the phenomenon and study goals.
Yes, there should be lots of impacts on climate changes in the ecosystem, like an example of didturbances occured in our forest ecosystems, recreatees a very slow recovery of the forest due to direct inflation on sunlight to the soil to reduced natural decomposition in the forest floor. When slow recovery taken place, we expects the slow flow of water supply in the forest, which affects the livelihood of the people using the water and rivers for their whole life and as, well no breeding site for fish
