Most risk assessment systems draw on a similar mix of criteria related to climate suitability, biology, undesirable characteristics and invasion history [16], [17].
This is undesirable effect, especially in Mediterranean climates.
The use of non-adapted varieties in breeding programs is challenging, as the incorporation of a new interesting trait is generally accompanied by many undesirable characters that do not meet climate adaptation requirements and consumers' preferences.
These undesirable long-term variations are not climate dependent but arise from physiological ageing processes.
It is comforting to be able to blame climate change, credit crunch and other undesirables on someone and Mrs T is always handy.

Thus, CO2 effects on climate may make full exploitation of coal resources undesirable.
We review recent research regarding the direct and indirect impacts of climate change on freshwater ecosystems and the severity of their undesirable effects on ecosystem processes and services.
These include prioritizing the resources and processes at risk from climate change, identifying climate change-related thresholds between desirable and undesirable conditions, establishing reference conditions for protection or restoration, developing monitoring and assessment programs, and developing models of how systems could change.
