Let's read Australi a was struggling with the effects of a five-year drought' and no solution appeared in sight.Some Australian experts called this the "Big Dry" and worried that it might become a climate feature of Australi a because of global warming.Australi a is the world's driest co...
Many observational studies suggest climate warming alone contributes to a longer growing season. To determine the relative effect of warming on plant phenology, we investigated the individual and joint effects of warming and CO2enrichment on a mixed-grass prairie plant community by following the ...
What are some effects of global warming? How does meteorology affect climate change? How does climate change affect the environment? How does the water cycle affect weather and climate? How does a circumpolar current affect climate? How does latitude affect climate change?
The countries which will face increased risk are not necessarily the most fragile, nor those which will suffer the greatest physical effects of climate change. The global security threat posed by fragile and failing states is well known. It is in the interest of the world's more affluent ...

and in 2011 split into two separate glaciers due to accelerated calving and ice loss. The retreat of the glacier contributes to rising sea levels, mostly through iceberg calving. Whilst tidewater effects are a major driver of the ice loss, the rapid retreat of the Columbia Glacier is also att...
The end of the world as we know it: as scientists learn more about Earth's previous five mass extinctions and the geological events that led to them they are beginning to detect alarming parallels with the effects of global warming today and are warning that history could be about to repeat...
