Attribution of recent climate change

Well-discussed Marissa. You are correct that the ocean acidification implies to the fundamental changes in the chemical balance or chemistry of the Earth’s oceans due to the increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere caused by burning of fossil fuels (e.g. coal, fuel oil, and natural gas). Ocean acidification is distinct from global climate change; however, the global threats to ecosystems resulting from ocean acidification are theoretically similar as global warming and also, both are…

and scientific whaling. Climate changes are also having and impact on the whale population in feeding grounds, as well as tourism, krill fishery and research…

Is climate change real? If the corals in coral reefs were asked, I believe they would say yes. I happen to agree with them. Coral reefs are dying off or becoming unhealthy due to too warm temperatures and ocean acidification. Population declines, warmer temperatures, and ocean acidification are caused by climate change, which in turn is thought to be caused by humans. A definition of climate change is; a change in global or regional climate patterns which can be attributed to increased levels of…

Hurricanes,affect places all over the world. Its a relationship between people and environment. Environment have a reaction on people. Some hurricanes have a impact on people. People have to ,move, find a new job,and that's hard for some people. Earthquakes involve the ground to shake. Floods could happen when it rains. You got . to stay on high ground. A flood is a over flow, such as rivers, lakes. A Hurricane is a huge storm, strong winds, it lasts for a week. Tsunami is a huge wave, in a…

Climate Change is severely affecting animals that rely on land and specific food sources. This is true because once an animals land is destroyed it removes their food source as well. For example the Giant Panda's diet revolves around bamboo. Now that climate change is ruining bamboo forests the panda is left with little to no food. This forces them to migrate from their low elevation habitats, to higher elevations like mountains. Although this may provide more bamboo it isolates the already…

How Might Human Activities Affect Global Climate Changes? How might human activities have affected global climate change? Human activities have affected global climate change in many different ways. Humans have contributed to global climate change by deforestation, the use of hydro-carbons, and the burning of fossil fuels. Is the climate changing right now? Some scientists who study the climate from today and from the past say that the global temperature has risen dramatically. Scientists are…

Climate is very import to tourism. Because climate connect with business if, cold country haven't snow, ski center can't open their center and if hot country have rain or snow, they can't enjoy swim or summer sports. If, weather has this problem, business gets much damage. And business gets many damage, tourism will be decrease then, this country get economic problem. Myanmar has a monsoon climate with three main seasons. The hottest period is between February and May, when there is little or no…

times of cold weather especially in the winters. Life becomes difficult in harsh weather, fighting against the forces of nature is definitely not an easy job. Colder climates tend to bring a number of problems and if people are not prepared for it then the overall problem can be seriously aggravated. Heating is necessary in such climates in order to fend off the troubles of the weather which can make life miserable. In order to overcome the challenges of the weather warmth is essential. Science…

atmosphere, that methane will trap 21 times more heat than the carbon dioxide over the next 100 year. Table 3 List of GWP of green house gas GREEN HOUSE GAS GWP CO2 1 CH4 25 N2O 298 HFC’s 124-14800 SF6 22800 Source: Inter Government Panel on Climate change (IPCC), 2007 Global warming effect of any GHG is calculated on three bases: 1. Abundance of the gas in the atmosphere 2. Global warming potential 3. Life cycle of the gas Table 4 Life cycle of different green house gases emitted from…

There is no connection between earthquakes and weather. Earthquakes are the result of geographic processes within the earth and can happen in any weather, in all climate, in all seasons and any time of the year. Every region of the world has a story about earthquake weather, but the type of weather is what they had for their most memorable earthquake. 5. It's safe to drive through a flooded road There are many…
