Arrange the following events into a logical sequence that demonstrates how a sustained increase in atmospheric heat can lead to the loss of a critical food-growing region.
Match each projected climate pattern shift with its most direct threat to the habitability of a human-populated region.
The primary threat to the long-term habitability of a region from shifting climate patterns is the direct physiological stress of higher average temperatures on the human body, while impacts on food production and water resources are considered secondary consequences.
