New research showing that summer wind speeds are intensifying in East Antarctica - resulting in faster, more widespread drying of Antarctic moss communities. As a result, drought-tolerant mosses may gain a competitive advantage, while endemic species could face greater risk in a changing climate.
Ozone depletion and climate change are driving a more positive Southern Annular Mode increasing summer wind speeds in coastal East Antarctica Wind speed plays a more influential role than other c...
