Climate

Climate change has been a very popular topic lately with all the crazy natural acts of destruction occurring lately. Hurricane Harvey, Irma and now Hurricane Nate. Most experts argue that the recent occurrence of tropical storms has to do with the tremendous amount of global warming within the atmosphere. I for one agree that there is a correlation between climate change and natural disasters. The outcomes of an increase in global temperatures include increased risk of drought and increased intensity

impact the organisms that call this medium their home. One of the most evident impacts of climate change on the world’s oceans is the resulting raise in ocean surface temperatures. Rising ocean temperatures can directly affect biogenic reef building organisms like corals which produce some of the most diverse and productive ecosystems in the world. Previous studies within this field have determined that climate change is a notable stressor for these corals causing large scale bleaching events; where

components of the climate system. The big cause for most climate change on Earth is the atmosphere and the oceans are an essential factor. Even though they do not respond to the climate changes they do have a role in the climate system. Earth is a big planet with at least 71 percent covered with water and 96.5 percent is located in the Earth’s oceans. There is an extreme interaction between the atmosphere, ocean and ice. In the past, ocean circulation has strongly impacted the climate sway of ice ages

Abstract: Climate is inherently variable. Climate changes from place to place and it varies with time. The world now faces one of the complex and important issue it has ever had to deal with: climate change. Climate change today is one of the biggest concerns of human beings on the planet and the effects of climate change are undeniable and it may cause environmental, social, and economic threats to the planet. We already know and easily can highlight several signs of climate change. They are: rising

The Social Issue of Climate Change ‘We are not faced with two separate crises, one environmental and the other social, but rather one complex crisis which is both social and environmental.’ The Pope Science has presented us with an issue that affects all of society. It changes the way we live and consume. Climate change is one of the most profound challenges ever presented to the human race. It puzzles politics, scares the economic system and overall has a catastrophic effect on the way we view

The Earth has not always been as it is today. Periods of climate alterations have occurred over time to land us where we stand today. Around 8200 years ago or 6200 BCE, a surprising event occurred on Earth. The Earth underwent an abrupt climate temperature change. This change is known as the 8.2 ka year event or 8200 year event which refers to the last major climate alteration, a Northern Hemisphere cooling event that occurred approximately 8,200 years before the present. This event was less severe

Tim, you're right. Climate change is a controversial topic. Not because people deny it, but because there's scientific evidence against it. Let's review. The Americas have always been unpredictable when it comes to natural disasters, according to The Americas - Mother Nature’s Playhouse, a documentary detailing how extreme and dangerous the nature of North America. Early settlers were astounded by how fast the weather changed. Hurricanes and earthquakes have always been prominent in the coastal regions

highest temperatures to date. Around this time, droughts, wildfires and other notable weather episodes lessened in rarity. These new visible extreme events were quickly blamed on climate change by the masses. However, it may or may not be true that these climactic incidents are symptomatic of an environmental imbalance. Climate change is defined as an accentuated difference in averages of weather circumstances or in intense meteorological occurrences for a given time. Studies do show that temperatures

CLIMATE CHANGE Climate change is changes in the usual weather patterns within a certain area. This includes how much rain a certain country gets during a year, or a change in temperature over a certain season in another destination. Climate change is not the same as changes in weather, as weather can change in a few hours or minutes, but climate change takes hundreds and millions of years to change. The climate of earth is always changing, the temperature of the earth can change and last millions
