What is compounding with climate change?Show answer
Climate change compounds these mechanisms. Warming oceans bleach the already-degraded Great Barrier Reef; shifting rainfall stresses fragmented populations that cannot migrate across cleared land. The combination of habitat fragmentation and climate change is especially damaging because species need to move to track suitable conditions but cannot cross hostile cleared land.
