Regional or local climate change modeling studies currently require starting with a global climate model, then downscaling to the region of interest. How should global models be chosen for such studies, and what effect do such choices have? This question is addressed in the context of a regional...
In a future climate warmed by increased greenhouse gases, increases of precipitation intensity do not have a uniform spatial distribution. Here we analyze ... GA Meehl,JM Arblaster,C Tebaldi - 《Geophysical Research Letters》 被引量: 524发表: 2005年 Global changes in extreme events: regional and...
Groundwater, the largest available store of global freshwater1, is relied upon by more than two billion people2. It is therefore important to quantify the spatiotemporal interactions between groundwater and climate. However, current understanding of the
Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperature and weather patterns. What is one major cause of climate change? A. Natural disasters B. Human activities C. Astronomical events D. Animal behaviors 相关知识点: 试题来源: 解析 B。本题主要考查对气候变化原因的理解。选项 A 自然灾害不是...
根据空前的“Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns.”(气候变化是指温度和天气模式的长期变化。)可知,设空处应该承接的是长期的变化有哪些。F选项“These shifts may be natural, such as through variations in the solar cycle.”(这些变化可能是自然的,比如太阳活动周...
Climate change is a long-term change in the average weather patterns that have come to define Earth’s local, regional and global climates. These changes have a broad range of observed effects that are synonymous with the term. Changes observed ...
所以F.These shifts may be natural,such as through variations in the solar cycle.(这些变化可能是自然的,例如通过太阳周期的变化。)符合语境。故选F。(2)C.推理判断题。根据上一句Climate change can cause extreme events like wildfires and floods.(气候变化可能导致野火和洪水等极端事件。)可知此处说的是...
The global climate change may cause ___ in the growth patterns of plants. A. changes B. problems C. chances D. ideas 相关知识点: 试题来源: 解析 A。本题考查名词的词义。“changes”表示变化,全球气候变化可能导致植物生长模式的变化;“problems”是问题;“chances”是机会;“ideas”是想法。A 选项...
Experts say global climate change already impacts weather patterns.Kintisch, Eli
The world’s warm deserts are predicted to experience disproportionately large temperature increases due to climate change, yet the impacts on global desert biodiversity remain poorly understood. Because species in warm deserts live close to their physio
