The presence of invasion, however, did not affect the relationship between spatial scale and effect size, suggesting that in this system, invasion may not exacerbate or attenuate climate change effects.
Such local topographic effects that may attenuate large-scale climate change effects must be considered in water resource planning and management alongside such climate change effects related to large-scale circulations, such as NAO.
In this article, we focus on adaptation strategies, policies, and measures, while noting that mitigation also is important to attenuate the contribution of climate change to hydro-meteorological disasters (e.g. 10).
"It has an attenuating effect.
Given limited information on adaptive responses to climate change, we argue that we need to intensify our efforts to explore how plasticity and genetic adaptation will attenuate the future impacts of climate change.
It is likely that up to a certain level, availability of convenient larval habitats attenuates the suppressive effect of altitude and/or climate on the mosquito biodiversity.
The insidious threat from climate change is that it will attenuate or preclude ecological responses by species that are physiologically constrained; yet, quantitative, objective criteria for assessing relative susceptibility of diverse taxa to warming-induced stress are wanting.
The reconstruction of the Cantabrian Gravettian and its palaeoenvironmental sequence is based on cave stratigraphies, which generally indicate a very rigorous climate (intense cold, occasionally dry and other times attenuated by the humidity).
Ecosystem-based coastal protection by means of conserving, restoring or creating intertidal ecosystems that attenuate waves and stabilize shorelines, offers a promising way to climate proof coastlines for the future.
Second, poor self-reported team climate predicted leaving the job, but this association attenuated towards the null after adjustment for intention to leave.
