Climate Change and Brant Geese in the Y-K Delta
Warming temperatures create a mismatch in the timing of plant growth and the arrival of migratory birds.
Researchers explore the implications of this mismatch in Alaska’s Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, investigating alterations in the carbon storage potential of plants, the release of greenhouse gasses, and the population of Pacific black brant geese.
