Our evolving climate: communicating the effects of climate variability
Our evolving climate is influenced by several factors such as greenhouse gases and solar output, coupled with the inherent variability of the climate system. Natural fluctuations in climate can temporarily mask or enhance the long-term upwards trend in temperatures, and contribute to uncertainty in climate projections, especially on regional scales. Understanding and acknowledging these variati...
متن کاملEvolving Climate Networks
We propose a method to reconstruct and analyse an evolving complex network from data generated by a spatio-temporal dynamical system. We study reanalysis surface air temperature data by different complex network measures. This approach reveals a rich internal structure in complex climate networks and allows to study the stability of the climate network and the impacts of teleconnections (e.g., ...
متن کاملStratospheric temperature trends: our evolving understanding
We review the scientific literature since the 1960s to examine the evolution of modeling tools and observations that have advanced understanding of global stratospheric temperature changes. Observations show overall cooling of the stratosphere during the period for which they are available (since the late 1950s and late 1970s from radiosondes and satellites, respectively), interrupted by episod...
متن کاملClimate-human-environment interactions: resolving our past
The paper reviews how we can learn from the past about climate-human-environment interactions at the present time, and in the future. It focuses on data sources for environmental change at local/regional and regional/global spatial scales, and shows the scope and limitations of each. It reviews alternative methods for learning from the past, including the increasing use of simulation models. Th...
متن کاملProtecting Our Children from Climate Change
This month, as we celebrate National Children's Health Month with Environmental Health Perspectives' (EHP) annual issue focused on children's health around the world, one particular nexus of concern has risen to the forefront: the current and potential impacts of climate change on children's health. Although climate change has become a constant topic of scientific inquiry and political discussi...
