Erratum: Global warming and climate forcing by recent albedo changes on Mars

Anthropogenic Albedo Changes and the Earth's Climate.

The human species has been altering the environment over large geographic areas since the domestication of fire, plants, and animals. The progression from hunter to farmer to technologist has increased the variety and pace more than the geographic extent of human impact on the environment. A number of regions of the earth have experienced significant climatic changes closely related in time to ...

Rainfall in the climate system: changes under global warming, and challenges for climate modelers

Anyone who has ever been drenched by a sudden downpour that failed to follow the weather forecast has a feeling for the problem that faces climate modelers. Small-scale features like thunderstorms, in which the core might be 5 km across, are much harder to predict in global models for weather and climate then are quantities like temperature that tend to vary on larger scales. Rain and snowfall,...

Talking about Climate Change and Global Warming

The increasing prevalence of social networks provides researchers greater opportunities to evaluate and assess changes in public opinion and public sentiment towards issues of social consequence. Using trend and sentiment analysis is one method whereby researchers can identify changes in public perception that can be used to enhance the development of a social consciousness towards a specific p...
