Southern Hemisphere Paleo- And Neoclimates: Key Sites, Methods, Data and Models
ISBN: 9783642640896 / Angielski / Miękka / 381 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Climate models show that climate change is not a uniform process. Areas of increased temperature are situated near areas of decreased temperature, areas with increased precipitation adjoin areas of drought. This is one of the reasons why climate change is so difficult to detect. Any parameter must be considered and tested locally or regionally and not on an average globally. This book gives an overview of current research methods and results in the different fields of climate research including modelling. In addition, it contains a hemisphere-wide stratigraphic data base with about 80000...

Earth's Climate Evolution
ISBN: 9781118897393 / Angielski / Twarda / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. To understand climate change today, we first need to know how Earth's climate changed over the past 450 million years. Finding answers depends upon contributions from a wide range of sciences, not just the rock record uncovered by geologists. In Earth's Climate Evolution, Colin Summerhayes analyzes reports and records of past climate change dating back to the late 18th century to uncover key patterns in the climate system. The book will transform debate and set the agenda for the next generation of thought about future climate change. The book takes a unique approach to the...

Polar Weather Satellites: NOAA Identified Ways to Mitigate Data Gaps, but Contingency Plans and Schedules Require Further Attention
ISBN: 9781502965042 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Since the 1960s, the United States has operated two separate operational polar-orbiting meteorological satellite systems: the Polarorbiting Operational Environmental Satellite (POES) series, which is managed by NOAA, and the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP), which is managed by the Air Force. These satellites obtain environmental data that are processed to provide graphical weather images and specialized weather products. These satellite data are also the predominant input to numerical weather prediction models, which are a primary tool for forecasting weather days in...

CLIMATE CHANGE Federal Efforts Under Way to Assess Water Infrastructure Vulnerabilities and Address Adaptation Challenges
ISBN: 9781502991393 / Angielski / Miękka / 44 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. According to the U.S. Global Change Research Program, changes in the climate in the United States and its coastal waters have altered-and will continue to alter-the water cycle, affecting where, when, and how much water is available for all uses. Changes in the climate-including warmer temperatures, changes in precipitation patterns, rising sea levels, and more frequent and intense storms-affect water resources in a number of ways such as increased flooding in some areas and drought in others, and inundation and erosion in coastal areas. Precisely how and to what extent changes in the climate...

ISBN: 9781635012477 / Angielski / Miękka / 50 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When children look at a book about tornadoes, they can see all of the destruction that is done by the force of nature. They can think of ways to create the weather systems in bottles or in a kitchen sink to see exactly how the weather phenomenon occurs. Children can also look at how the tornadoes are rated on the Fujita scale based on the wind speeds and the damage that is done to homes, trees and other structures after the storm.
