and hotter temperatures on Earth, will significantly change the climate across the whole planet. Thisclimate changeis already beginning to happen in parts of the world. If you live in a chilly place like Alaska or Greenland, you might think a bit of global warming sounds like a great idea....
The resilience of biodiversity in the face of climate change depends on gene flow and range shifts. For diverse wind-dispersed and wind-pollinated organisms, regional wind patterns could either facilitate or hinder these movements, depending on alignment of winds with spatial climate patterns. We ...
I think a lot of people confuse Climate Change with Global Warming. Humans are obviously changing the climate due to changing life on earth and adding 80,000 synthetic chemicals to the global system. Because of the complexity of the system it is impossible to predict the changes. However, to...
Globally, thunderstorms are responsible for a significant fraction of rainfall, and in the mid-latitudes often produce extreme weather, including large hail, tornadoes and damaging winds. Despite this importance, how the global frequency of thunderstorms and their accompanying hazards has changed over th...
Topographically channeled winds such as gap winds can be key drivers of freezing rain and ice accretion. Understanding the effect of these winds on the res... DE Rupp,LW O'Neill,LD Loomis - 《Climate Dynamics Observational Theoretical & Computational Research on the Climate System》 被引量: 0...

"In my opinion, it is highly irresponsible for the U.S. government, under Donald Trump or his EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) chief (Scott) Pruitt, not to take into account climate change, because the scientific evidence is enormous and the risk is very large. That amount of ignorance...

C.There is severe cold climate in the South Pole. D.There are the strongest winds and strangest waves. 2. How does the Southern Ocean keep the world from warming even more? A.By pushing severe cold water to the other oceans. B.By cooling the warmer water from the other oceans. ...
The alternative intensity approach calculates what share of a specific aspect of the risk (e.g., rainfall) was due to climate change. For instance, the 2017 Hurricane Harvey’s climate change-induced economic costs were analyzed by both risk-based7 and intensity-based8 approaches. The economic...
