Predictions of hydroclimatic change with global warming suggest that precipitation events are becoming/will become more extreme. In other words, heavy/flooding precipitation events will occur with greater frequency. Explain how the capacity of Earth’s atmosphere to hold water vapor changes as the atmosphere warms, such that heavier precipitation events could be triggered.
What can be concluded about the influence of climate change on extreme weather events?   a. climate change is contributing to all extreme weather events to some degree   b. climate change is intensifying many extreme weather events   c. climate change is intensifying a few extreme weather events   d. it cannot be concluded that climate change has an impact on extreme weather events
