Thousand-year record suggests global warming could temper swarms.
Records made for over a thousand years in China show that locust infestations are more likely to occur following periods of cooler weather. This suggests that as climate change drives temperatures up, it may also force locust populations down — as long as temperature continues to affect rainfall in the same way as it has done so far.
