Global climate model

The planet Earth orbits in such a way that it can cause an ice age. In order for this type of ice age to occur there would have to be many different things that must occur all at once. There is nothing the human civilization could possibly do about the orbit either to prevent the ice age. Milutin Milankovitch discovered the three orbital parameters that can cause an ice age if the conditions were all to align. Milankovitch’s three different orbital parameters include Earth’s eccentricity, axial…

During ten thousand B.C. at the Northern Hemisphere, an abrupt global climate change that led to glacial like weather occured. This period is known as Younger Dryas Climate Event. Due to the earth warming, the ice age starting melting. This huge amount of freshwater started flowing into the gulf through the Mississippi River and also to north Atlantic from the east coast. This unusual flow of freshwater into the saltwater caused the water currents to change suddenly causing different weather…

that global warming is slowly destroying our ozone layer more and more each year. Pollution is a very serious issue and a lot of people are not aware of the serious effects that global warming has on our world. There are many things that humans do every day, without even realizing it, that affect our atmosphere in negative ways. Greenhouse gases and carbon dioxide are emitted into the air in many different ways that all affect the universe in negative ways. One of the main causes of global…

Arctic amplification is expected to cause arctic warming through the year 2100. This warming corresponds to a trend of decreasing in sea ice area and extent through the end of the century. Despite this anticipated trend, inter-annual variability in arctic sea ice extent remains relatively unpredictable. The variables affecting sea ice growth include, but are not limited to, large-scale atmospheric circulation, local meteorology, and dynamical surface fluxes, thus the forcing on arctic sea ice is…

Climate Change Cause connected to Humans Extreme heat waves, devastating droughts, and resulting storms are examples of climate change cause now being connected to humans. According to a 2014 report from the United Nations (www.un.org), 75 percent of these heat events can be attributed to some sort of human activity. The United Nations report claims that there is only a five percent chance that the events of global warming seen in the last 65 years happened due to natural causes and that it is…

According to Edith Widder, “Our biggest challenges for the ocean and for the planet are problems of perception. People need to understand that species extinctions, habitat destruction, ocean acidification, and pollution are all chipping away at the resilience of the thin layer of life that sustains us on Spaceship Earth.” I will be discussing what ocean acidification is, how do the CO2 get into oceans, and what are biological impacts. Ocean Acidification is a reduction in ocean pH due to the…

Climate is reserved for regional patterns of temperature and precipitation that persist for decades and centuries.Global climate is maintained by the sun it keeps the earth's average temperature of 60°F. This is a good temperature to support plant life and maintain reservoirs of drinking water. Although the Global Climate is raising fast and this is causing global climate patterns to change, this is not the only reason. Global patterns may last for ten years like the periods in the ice ages ,or…

Svante Arrhenius’ research supported the famous greenhouse effect theory, which meant with more carbon in the air there was a hotter temperature. He stated when there are cold climates, acid precipitation from carbon was lower and made it more difficult to trap heat in the atmosphere. When the acid precipitation is released onto the earth it is collected into streams and rivers, which lead to oceans. The organisms in the oceans…

and our air would be polluted even more with all the car and factories that we use all around the world brings many gases that have chemicals in it that pollute our air. Deforestation also change our climate. Without the tree the climate will alter the region cool climates may get a lot hotter and hot places may get lot cooler. Soil erosion can also lead to silt entering the lakes and any other water sources that we use. This can decrease our local water quality get lower and we…

malls become common. Water is always required in this climate, as hydration needs consideration to keep the cramps away or worse heat stroke. Prevent Sunburn by using light clothing. Cold – During the cold weather, snow sports are a favorite. Skiing on the slopes or sledding are fun sports. Clothing will be a factor keeping warm in the cold weather conditions. Both climates enjoy ice skating but not outside. In the cold climate outside skating is available. The…
