Description:

Climate change poses many threats to biological, ecological, and societal systems. Shifting temperatures and weather patterns over time are leading to changes in the environment and fungal habitats. Although the impact of climate change on fungal infections is not fully understood due to limiting factors such as a lack of long term fungal datasets, there are several ways that changes in the environment can lead to changes in fungi, where fungi live, and how fungi interact with humans, animals, and plants.
