Hurricanes in a Warming Climate
There are fundamental differences between the climate of the Southern and Northern Hemispheres. Largely, these differences are dictated by the obvious differences in the geography of the two hemispheres: the Northern Hemisphere is about 50% land, whereas about 90% of the Southern Hemisphere is ocean. This asymmetry gives a much larger seasonal cycle in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) and reduces t...
متن کاملHealth in a cold climate.
British economy is edging out of a severe economic recession, during which the future of international financial systems seemed in doubt. The scale of debt is comparable to that following the Second World War, and national borrowing is predicted to reach 80% of gross domestic product by 2013. We have suffered a permanent loss in national output of 6–7%. The inevitable reduction in funding for p...
متن کاملPlants in a cold climate.
Plants are able to survive prolonged exposure to sub-zero temperatures; this ability is enhanced by pre-exposure to low, but above-zero temperatures. This process, known as cold acclimation, is briefly reviewed from the perception of cold, through transduction of the low-temperature signal to functional analysis of cold-induced gene products. The stresses that freezing of apoplastic water impos...
متن کاملDesert Amplification in a Warming Climate
Here I analyze the observed and projected surface temperature anomalies over land between 50°S-50°N for the period 1950-2099 by large-scale ecoregion and find strongest warming consistently and persistently seen over driest ecoregions such as the Sahara desert and the Arabian Peninsula during various 30-year periods, pointing to desert amplification in a warming climate. This amplification enha...
