The common honeybee is the most well-known and well studied species, but there are thousands of wild bee species that enliven our landscapes and help to pollinate crops and wildflowers. The widely reported threats to honeybees also jeopardize the lives of these under-appreciated bee species. Access the Outlook free online for six months.

Goodsite doi:10.1038/nclimate2665 Initiatives to adapt to the effects of climate change are growing in number but may fail to achieve the desired outcomes unless critical competing interests are taken into account during the planning process. Policy Watch Top Small islands adrift pp619 - 620 Anna Petherick doi:10.1038/nclimate2686 With the charismatic former president of the Maldives, Mohamed Nasheed, behind bars on a widely derided terrorism charge, Anna Petherick asks whether small island states can really make themselves heard in Paris. Research Highlights Top Disease: Livestock parasite outbreaks | Marine biology: Bacterial boost | Arctic ecosystems: Effects of sea-ice loss | Theatre: Creating anthropo-scenes News and Views Top Policy: REDD+ in Asia Pacific pp623 - 624 Andrew McGregor doi:10.1038/nclimate2692 Reducing emissions from forests is a key goal of international climate efforts. New research shows how ethnographic approaches can provide better outcomes for people and forests in Asia Pacific. Climate adaptation: Cultural knowledge and local risks pp624 - 625 Sarah Strauss doi:10.1038/nclimate2693 A focus on African American communities on the Eastern Shore of Maryland highlights the ways that local cultural knowledge differs from place to place, developing understanding of local climate risks and resources for adaptation. See also: Article by Christine D. Miller Hesed et al. Forest Ecology: Tall, leafy conifers lose out pp625 - 626 Maurizio Mencuccini and Oliver Binks doi:10.1038/nclimate2698 A simple conceptual model helps to answer the question of which forests are more likely to die following droughts.

Winickoff, Jane A. Flegal and Asfawossen Asrat doi:10.1038/nclimate2632 There have been calls for more voices from the global south to engage in the climate engineering debate. A Berkeley Workshop held in July 2014 achieved just this, identifying themes that should inform research and governance in this arena. Options for managing impacts of climate change on a deep-sea community pp635 - 639 Ronald E. Thresher, John M. Guinotte, Richard J. Matear and Alistair J. Hobday doi:10.1038/nclimate2611 Deep-sea coral reefs off southeast Australia are threatened by climate change and ocean acidification. An immediate priority to conserve these sensitive ecosystems would be the identification and protection of refugia areas. Review Top Psychological research and global climate change pp640 - 646 Susan Clayton, Patrick Devine-Wright, Paul C. Stern, Lorraine Whitmarsh, Amanda Carrico, Linda Steg, Janet Swim and Mirilia Bonnes doi:10.1038/nclimate2622 Policies aimed at mitigating climate change, adapting to it and minimizing its impacts must take into account human behaviours and motivations. Psychology can therefore inform efforts to address climate change, but further research is required. Letters Top Heat stress causes substantial labour productivity loss in Australia pp647 - 651 Kerstin K. Zander, Wouter J. W. Botzen, Elspeth Oppermann, Tord Kjellstrom and Stephen T. Garnett doi:10.1038/nclimate2623 Climate change is expected to exacerbate absenteeism as a result of heat stress, with ramifications for labour productivity. Reduced work performance in 2013–2014 in Australia was found to represent an economic burden of around US$6.2 billion. Future population exposure to US heat extremes pp652 - 655 Bryan Jones, Brian C. O’Neill, Larry McDaniel, Seth McGinnis, Linda O. Mearns and Claudia Tebaldi doi:10.1038/nclimate2631 US population exposure to extreme heat is set to increase four- to sixfold from the late twentieth century. Changes in population are as important as changes in climate in driving this outcome. Projected strengthening of Amazonian dry season by constrained climate model simulations pp656 - 660 Juan P. Boisier, Philippe Ciais, Agnès Ducharne and Matthieu Guimberteau doi:10.1038/nclimate2658 Dry season rainfall in the Amazon is projected by constraining global climate models with simple models calibrated to observations. The results indicate a longer dry season over a larger area and a strengthening of the monsoon season this century. Trade-off between intensity and frequency of global tropical cyclones pp661 - 664 Nam-Young Kang and James B. Elsner doi:10.1038/nclimate2646 A study using a three-dimensional variability space where tropical cyclone frequency, intensity and activity are linked identifies surface ocean temperature as the cause of increased cyclone intensity and a decreased frequency of occurrence. Rapid evolution of thermal tolerance in the water flea Daphnia pp665 - 668 A. N. Geerts, J. Vanoverbeke, B. Vanschoenwinkel, W. Van Doorslaer, H. Feuchtmayr, D. Atkinson, B. Moss, T. A. Davidson, C. D. Sayer and L. De Meester doi:10.1038/nclimate2628 A manipulation experiment, combined with reconstructed evolutionary history from a dormant egg bank found in recent lake sediments, reveals that water fleas (Daphnia) can exhibit a rapid increase in their capacity to tolerate higher temperatures. Darcy's law predicts widespread forest mortality under climate warming pp669 - 672 Nathan G. McDowell and Craig D. Allen doi:10.1038/nclimate2641 A hydraulic corollary to Darcy’s law is used to predict the characteristics of plants that will survive during drought in a warmer climate. This indicates that forest trees will need to be shorter and more drought-tolerant to survive in the future. See also: News and Views by Maurizio Mencuccini et al. Recent warming leads to a rapid borealization of fish communities in the Arctic pp673 - 677 Maria Fossheim, Raul Primicerio, Edda Johannesen, Randi B. Ingvaldsen, Michaela M. Aschan and Andrey V. Dolgov doi:10.1038/nclimate2647 Rapid warming of Arctic marine ecosystems has led to a change in the spatial distribution of fish communities, with boreal communities expanding into regions previously dominated by Arctic fish species, which are now retracting northwards. Physiological advantages of dwarfing in surviving extinctions in high-CO2 oceans pp678 - 682 Vittorio Garilli, Riccardo Rodolfo-Metalpa, Danilo Scuderi, Lorenzo Brusca, Daniela Parrinello, Samuel P. S. Rastrick, Andy Foggo, Richard J. Twitchett, Jason M. Hall-Spencer and Marco Milazzo doi:10.1038/nclimate2616 Physiological changes associated with dwarfing in two marine molluscs that are adapted to acidified seawater at shallow CO2w seeps help the animals keep their shells intact. Such changes may have helped species to survive past mass extinction events. Articles Top Cultural knowledge and local vulnerability in African American communities pp683 - 687 Christine D. Miller Hesed and Michael Paolisso doi:10.1038/nclimate2668 Quantitative indices can only partially help in understanding vulnerability to climate change impacts. Research shows that eliciting cultural knowledge yields important insights into how social–ecological factors affect communities’ vulnerability. See also: News and Views by Sarah Strauss Projections of climate conditions that increase coral disease susceptibility and pathogen abundance and virulence pp688 - 694 Jeffrey Maynard, Ruben van Hooidonk, C. Mark Eakin, Marjetta Puotinen, Melissa Garren, Gareth Williams, Scott F. Heron, Joleah Lamb, Ernesto Weil, Bette Willis and C. Drew Harvell doi:10.1038/nclimate2625 Rising water temperatures increase the susceptibility of reef-building corals to diseases caused by pathogens and to coral bleaching. Model projections indicate that disease is more likely to cause coral mortality than bleaching in coming decades. Future vulnerability of marine biodiversity compared with contemporary and past changes pp695 - 701 Grégory Beaugrand, Martin Edwards, Virginie Raybaud, Eric Goberville and Richard R. Kirby doi:10.1038/nclimate2650 Analysis of the sensitivity of marine pelagic biodiversity to past and contemporary climate change shows that even moderate future warming will accelerate changes already being observed, while severe warming will seriously impact biodiversity.
