After reading these two articles I found out that there are a lot of similarities and differences bin these two articles. The greenhouse affect is a process by which thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by atmospheric gases, the gases we produce and put in the air everyday. Also they both had a plan for trying to get to know the future outcome of the weather due to past weather conditions. They find out from ash particles found in ice or measuring the sea level,seeing if it has risen from polar ice caps melting. One more similarity is the equipment they used to get the results for example they both used temperatureDetermining global warming effects on weather can be done in many different in these two articles I found that you can use ice or water.
Carbon dioxide is a heat trapping greenhouse gas. It gets “released through human activities such as deforestation and burning fossil fuels, as well as natural processes such as respiration and volcanic eruptions” (Global Climate Change: Key Indicators, 2014). An increase in carbon dioxide means more heat is trapped thereby raising the Earth’s temperature. Global surface temperature needs to also be monitored. Not just one area but globally!
In Indiana the university of Indiana have been researching the climate changes and they have found that all this climates will have an impact in our state. Purdue Climate Change Researchers have been researching greenhouse gas concentrations and they have found that due to these changes Indiana could have these effects the occurrence of extreme hot events is likely to increase in Indiana, while the occurrence of extreme cold events is likely to decrease. The occurrence of conditions that spawn severe thunderstorms is likely to increase in Indiana. Annual average precipitation is likely to increase in the region, as is the occurrence of rain during the winter and early spring, resulting in higher stream flow and an increased likelihood of flooding. An increase in the frequency and intensity of summer storms is likely to increase the frequency of flooding events and exacerbate summer soil moisture deficits in
Throughout its 4.6 billion years of existence, the Earth has cycled through many natural changes of warming and cooling. Yet, today’s increasing temperature is widely accepted by the fact that humans might be the main cause, instead of the natural temperature changes the Earth cycles every once in awhile. Consequently, the life sustaining environment has been forced to transform more rapidly as temperature changes, and one of the most deleterious results is drought. Drought has caused major problems globally, especially in the waterless West America. In the past, California mainly focused on delivering enough water across the state to meet its people’s usage.
June Avant English 101 November 22, 2010 Global Warming Controversy Global warming is an increase in the average temperature of the earth’s atmosphere which causes climatic changes. Global warming leads to changes in rainfall patterns, sea level, negative impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. Al Gore and Daniel Botkin both have great points about global warming. Botkin has a scientific perspective about global warming; however, Gore’s position is better. Al Gore uses facts and evidence to support his views about global warming.
In the Holocaust, there were 5.59-5.86 million and in the Rwanda Genocide there were 800,000 and 1,000,000 which could be as high as 20% of their population. In the book Night, there was a scene that showed the mass killings that the Nazis’ committed, they shoved all of the people in death camps and lined them up and killed them. In Hotel Rwanda they lined them up and killed them. Another similarity that they share is the cruelty and the heartlessness that they have. Even when the children were begging to have mercy, they still killed them.
Climate Change Regulation Gina Woods SCI/362 October 17, 2011 Climate Change Regulation The planet historically has gone through a few climate changes. Scientist, who study the climate know the earth climate has already been in a cooling stage, which is the Ice Age, and is in a warming stage in which is called Global warming. Some scientist study show that the earth climate change is moving into another cooling stage in the next decade. “The climate change is Global warming, the increase temperature of the atmosphere near the earth surface” (“American Meteorological Society 2007”). In earlier decades, the natural effects to the climate change, such as volcanic eruptions with the Industrial Revolution, human began to put their
The Globe is losing its Cool Global Warming Melissa Moran University of Phoenix Axia collage Professors name SCI 275 October 21, 2009 There are many reasons for the change in the climate. Climate change also known as global warming is the change in the average temperature of the earth surface, and the change in wind and precipitation. Global warming is caused by releasing fossil fuels into the atmosphere. Many factors such as human activity and greenhouse gas emissions contribute to global warming. Global warming also has natural causes though they are often down-played in the media.
These gases, with carbon dioxide being the main culprit, prevent solar heat from escaping the earth’s atmosphere, resulting in a rise in temperature, or the greenhouse effect. Already scientists around the world are detecting the numerous and dangerous effects of global warming (Johnson 18). Through these different leaks and spills our Canadian environment is slowly being negatively effected. The impacts of global warming on the Canadian environment are immense. Some of these impacts include ice bridges melting, and will have to be replaced with traditional building materials.
Nature against humankind One of the most tragic aspects of Depression in 1920s was the weather working against people. Floats and wind storms battered the North area and the eastern section of the country. In the 1930s most of major rivers rose over their banks and floated the streets and towns in the East. In 1937 the Ohio River flood was one of the worst in the history. All in all, it destroyed the homes of half million people.
