  1. Climate Change and Species Interactions in Natural and Agricultural Ecosystems Dan Herms Department of Entomology The Ohio State University Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center Wooster, OH herms.2@osu.edu

  2. The 10 warmest years since 1000 AD: • 2005 • 2009 • 1998 • 4. 2007 • 5. 2002 • 6. 2006 • 7. 2003 • 8. 2004 • 9. 2001 • 10. 2008 (warmest La Niña year on record) Source: NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies

  3. Global warming indicated by: • 3 independent surface temperature records: • NASA, NOAA, Hadley Climate Research Unit • Corroborated by: • 2 satellite records of upper and lower troposphere • Weather balloons • Proxy reconstructions (e.g. tree rings, boreholes, ice cores, • glaciers, coral, etc.) • Changes in Earth’s physical and biological systems.

  4. Is the Earth warming? 30 year trends: • Increasing air temperature in lower atmosphere. • Increasing temperature over land. • Increasing temperature over oceans. • Increasing sea-surface temperature. • Increasing ocean heat content. • Increasing humidity. • Increasing sea level. • Decreasing glacier cover. • Decreasing sea ice cover. • Decreasing snow cover. • NOAA National Climatic Data Center, 2010

  5. ...increasing atmospheric CO2 from 280 ppm in 1800 to 390 ppm today http://www.bom.gov.au/info/climate/change/gallery/images/25.jpg

  6. Objectives: • Global warming and the distribution of species. • Global warming and phenology: • Phenological change as evidence of global warming. • Modeling changes in phenology of agricultural pests. • Global warming and ecological disruption. • Decoupling of species interactions. • Effects on population dynamics. • Atmospheric CO2, plant quality, and herbivores.

  19. Phenology: The study of recurring biological events and their relationship to climate.

  22. Climate change and phenology at Sand County, WI “The mean of regressions for the 55 phenophases studied was -0.12 day / yr, an overall increase in phenological earliness…” Bradley et al. 1999. Phenological changes reflect climate change in Wisconsin. PNAS 96:9701-9704.

  39. Global warming and phenological asynchrony Interacting species with differential responses to increased temperature. For example: Plant - herbivore interactions Plant - pollinator interactions Predator-prey interactions Bird migration and prey availability

  40. Phenological synchrony (and asynchrony)

  41. Phenological Window Hypothesis (Feeny 1976, Mattson et al. 1982) • A “window” of time when host traits are most suitable for the insect • Predicts that insect growth and survival will decline as host-insect synchronicity is modified
