A. Blair doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0183-0 Perspectives   Climate change challenges for central banks and financial regulators    pp462 - 468 Emanuele Campiglio, Yannis Dafermos, Pierre Monnin, Josh Ryan-Collins, Guido Schotten et al. doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0175-0 Climate change poses a financial risk but it is unclear what management role there is for central banks and financial regulators. This Perspective outlines research and policy directions needed for financial sector engagement.   Future climate risk from compound events    pp469 - 477 Jakob Zscheischler, Seth Westra, Bart J. J. M. van den Hurk, Sonia I. Seneviratne, Philip J. Ward et al. doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0156-3 Compound events, events of significant impact that are caused by a combination of processes, are difficult to predict. This Perspective discusses the need for a systematic approach to improve risk assessment of these events.   Climate reddening increases the chance of critical transitions    pp478 - 484 doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0160-7 Climate memory is anticipated to increase in the future, a process known as reddening. This Perspective examines how a change in the temporal autocorrelation of climate variables may impact the likelihood of critical transitions, using examples from forests, coral reefs, poverty traps and ice sheets.   Letters   The enduring effect of scientific interest on trust in climate scientists in the United States    pp485 - 488 Matthew Motta doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0126-9 Analysis of longitudinal survey data shows that interest in science at age 12–14 years is associated with increased trust in climate scientists in adulthood (mid thirties) in the United States, irrespective of political ideology.   Comparing extraction rates of fossil fuel producers against global climate goals    pp489 - 492 Saphira A. C. Rekker, Katherine R. O'Brien, Jacquelyn E. Humphrey & Andrew C. Pascale doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0158-1 Meeting emissions targets requires limiting use of fossil fuel reserves. For the largest investor- and state-owned producers allowable extraction varies dependent on the approach to calculate burnable fossil fuel allowance.   Model tropical Atlantic biases underpin diminished Pacific decadal variability    pp493 - 498 doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0163-4 Simulation of observed Pacific wind trends is hampered by model limitations in representing variability or the forced response. Improved mean-state climatologies, including the recent Atlantic warming trend, should improve capture of Pacific trends.   Climate change threatens the world's marine protected areas    pp499 - 503 John F. Bruno, Amanda E. Bates, Chris Cacciapaglia, Elizabeth P. Pike, Steven C. Amstrup et al. doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0149-2 Marine protected areas aim to conserve biodiversity and habitat. However continued high emissions causing changes in sea-surface temperatures and oxygen levels are likely to disrupt many ecosystems protected by MPAs.   The epigenetic landscape of transgenerational acclimation to ocean warming    pp504 - 509 doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0159-0 Transgenerational acclimation to warmer oceans has been seen for some marine species. This study shows that the coral reef fish has 193 genes correlated to such acclimation traits, suggesting an epigenetic basis of acclimation.   Antibiotic resistance increases with local temperature    pp510 - 514 doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0161-6 Based on an analysis of the distribution of antibiotic resistance across the United States, research shows that increasing local temperatures as well as population density across regions are associated with increasing antibiotic resistance in common bacterial pathogens.   Articles   Framing the challenge of climate change in Nature and Science editorials    pp515 - 521 Mike Hulme, Noam Obermeister, Samuel Randalls & Maud Borie doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0174-1 Editorials in multi-disciplinary journals can influence professional scientists and wider public discourse. This study compares how editorials on climate change in Nature and Science have changed over time and in response to wider political events   The carbon footprint of global tourism    pp522 - 528 Manfred Lenzen, Ya-Yen Sun, Futu Faturay, Yuan-Peng Ting, Arne Geschke et al. doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0141-x Tourism is a significant contributor to the global economy, with potentially large environmental impacts. Origin and destination accounting perspectives are used to provide a comprehensive assessment of global tourism's carbon footprint.   Compensation of ocean acidification effects in Arctic phytoplankton assemblages    pp529 - 533 doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0142-9 The effects of projected ocean acidification on primary productivity of the Arctic and subarctic shelf seas are found to be minimal, with the phytoplankton communities showing a high capacity to compensate for environmental change.   Global controls on carbon storage in mangrove soils    pp534 - 538 André S. Rovai, Robert R. Twilley, Edward Castañeda-Moya, Pablo Riul, Miguel Cifuentes-Jara et al. doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0162-5 A global model that incorporates information about coastal environmental settings indicates that mangrove soil organic carbon stocks have been significantly underestimated in carbonate settings, and overestimated in deltaic coastlines.   Forest-rainfall cascades buffer against drought across the Amazon    pp539 - 543 Arie Staal, Obbe A. Tuinenburg, Joyce H. C. Bosmans, Milena Holmgren, Egbert H. van Nes et al. doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0177-y Tree transpiration in the Amazon enhances downwind rainfall. Research now shows that approximately one-third of Amazon rainfall originates within its own basin, with the southern half of the basin contributing most to this effect.   Amendments & Corrections   Author Correction: The carbon footprint of global tourism    p544 Manfred Lenzen, Ya-Yen Sun, Futu Faturay, Yuan-Peng Ting, Arne Geschke et al. doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0192-z Publisher Correction: Bottom-up linking of carbon markets under far-sighted cap coordination and reversibility    p544 Jobst Heitzig & Ulrike Kornek doi:10.1038/s41558-018-0125-x Advertisement Nature Briefing is an essential round-up of science news, opinion and analysis, free in your inbox every weekday.
