However, in order to deal with man-made climate change in a serious way, it is necessary to know what climate change would be happening by nature anyway. We consider natural climate change mainly on the long-term geological scale, i.e. over the 4567 Ma of Earth’s existence. Medium-...
short-term natural temperature changes. These natural changes confuse the interpretation of the steady greenhouse increase and have resulted in the reluctance of politicians and planners to take decisions for remedial action to accommodate expected increases in sea level and changes in the geography of ...
There is nothing inherently wrong with a model-centric approach to climate research…as long as the modeler continues to use the observations to guide the model development over time. Unfortunately, as Richard Lindzen at MIT haspointed out, the fact that modelers use the term “model validation”...
Most climate records of the past 2 000 years have focused on land records rather than marine ones . However these land records do not account for the importance of oceans in determining the pace of climate change A team of researchers from Australian National University ( ...
the maximum daytime temperatures recorded during the North West Pacific heatwave of 2021 were, if one assumes that the sole/primary driver of the conditions was ‘climate change’, i.e. the long term warming trend observed since 1950 or even 1850, depending on which temperature datasets are ...
In the end, the IPCC made only a brief mention of the issue in the summary for policymakers, stressing that short-term records are sensitive to natural variability and don't in general reflect long-term trends. Bill Clinton, Al Gore talk climate change with Charlie Rose02:52 ...
Understanding how long-term environmental variation and biotic interaction determine biological assemblages is critical for evaluating the response of biological communities to anthropogenic and climate changes. We sampled plankton and water quality from a man-made lake monthly from 2006 to 2015 for the ...

The UN Development Program (UNDP) has launched a partnership with the Chinese bike-sharing platform known as Ofo to raise public awareness about climate change, a UN spokesperson said Tuesday. China urges upgrading energy consumption pattern China's top economic planner Tuesday called for implementatio...
Despite the recent global agreement on cutting greenhouse gas emissions,global carbon output continues to rise.This will put a long-term strain on the ability of developing economies to feed their own people.Climate change is aggravated by the emissions of greenhouse gases from chemical and natural...
