Bewick's swans fly less far during their autumn migration when the weather is warm. Climate change has therefore led to a shift in their common wintering areas. Now, for the first time, bird researchers from the University of Amsterdam (UvA) and the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) have been able to use long-term GPS data to pinpoint the specific choices that individual swans make. The results of their research were published today in the scientific journal Global Change Biology. Bewick's swans, a migratory water bird that breeds south of the Barents Sea in European Russia, is now seen much less often in the Netherlands than in previous years.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand is urging people to start preparing for the risk of wildfire early with hotter, drier weather forecast this summer. Service delivery wildfire manager Tim Mitchell said the forecast higher temperatures, reduced rainfall and windier El Niño weather pattern predicted for this summer would likely cause higher levels of fire danger on the east coasts of both islands. 'Given this year's flood events and wet conditions, people will likely find it difficult to understand the wildfire risk New Zealand could be facing soon,' he said.

CHINESE president Xi Jinping's first major reform plans a decade ago were also his boldest, envisaging a transition to a Western-style free market economy driven by services and consumption by 2020. The 60-point agenda was meant to fix an obsolete growth model better suited to less developed countries. However, most of those reforms have gone nowhere leaving the economy largely reliant on older policies that have only added to China's massive debt pile and industrial overcapacity. The failure to restructure the world's second-largest economy has raised critical questions about what comes next for China.
