■ FIGURE 8.29 The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has found that the climate change models that include increasing human releases of greenhouse gases (shown in pink) fit the temperature trends of the last century (shown by black lines). The blue tones estimate the ranges of what the temperatures would be without human impacts on global warming.
On what continent has the observed temperature fluctuated the most during this time period, and which one the least?
The continent in which the observed temperature fluctuated the most and least during this time period.
Among the various geographic locations and climate regions, the impacts resulting from global warming and all major change in climate will always vary. Some geographic regions on Earth will be benefited from a warmer climate, whereas...
