The Earth’s climate is constantly changing. These changes result primarily because of the natural process where the Earth’s spheres interact with one another, however human activities are having a greater impact on global warming. There is evidence that human beings are changing Earth’s climate unnaturally. Ninety-Seven percent of scientist have agreed that global climate has undergone an irregular occurrence and changed drastically over the last 100 years so it can no longer be claimed as…
1. Introduction 1.1 Purpose and Authorisation This report was authorised by Neil Tindale (ENS242 Weather and Climate Lecturer and Tutor) for the purpose of evaluating and analysing climate change in Antarctica. 1.2 Limitations This report is only based on literature research. It would have been preferable to gather data in Antarctica, but Antarctica is 7 014 km away from Australia and limited options is available to travel in the southernmost continent on Earth. 1.3 Scope This report is…
Geoengineering is the study of using modern day resources to counteract the massive international problem of global warming. There are three main types of geoengineering that have been theorized, one being the science fiction call to action, the form of geoengineering is called Solar Radiation Management. Scientists have reason to believe that if we reflect a tiny proportion of solar radiation that comes naturally from the sun, we will be able to decrease the amount global warming. Scientists…
THE WATER CYLE AND CLIMATE CHANGE Among the most serious Earth science and ecological approach issues challenging society are the potential changes in the Earth’s water cycle because of environmental change. The science community agrees that the climate of Earth is now changing due to natural variability; it includes solar variability and increasing concentration of greenhouse gases. Moreover, it is noticed that these changes may strongly affect atmospheric water vapor concentrations,…
