Slide1

Potential Effect of Climate Change on Pollination

Slide2

On average, the onset of spring snowmelt in the Rockies now occurs approximately two weeks earlier

than in the late 1970s.

What may have caused this to occur?

Slide3

Slide4

Spring

snowmelt is occurring earlier in the Rocky Mountains.

Why

would this confuse bees??

Slide5

Model projections of average temperature and precipitation changes in Illinois for mid-century (2040-2059) and end-of-century (2080-2099) indicate that

summer in Illinois is expected to feel progressively more like summers currently experienced in states south and west.

Slide6

Monoculture

Vs.

Polyculture

Which may help pollinators to survive climate change?
