Impacts of Climate Change

Introduction to Modern Climate Change, 2021
Climate change is already affecting the environment and people around the world. We have seen changes in the air, in water, and in plants and animals. These impacts include things like warmer temperatures, sea-level rise, heavy rainfall and more intense ...

Climate Change

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America
As human-induced climate change warms the planet, its health impacts will affect all populations, but certain groups will be more vulnerable to its impacts. Given its role as a health care safety net, emergency medicine will play a crucial role in addressing these health conditions.

Topological Climate Change

International Journal of Bifurcation and Chaos, 2020
This article presents a bifurcation analysis of a simple Energy Balance Model (EBM) of the Earth’s climate, which suggests that topological change has occurred in the paleoclimate history of the Earth. In the theory of dynamical systems, two systems that are topologically equivalent have solutions with the same qualitative behavior.

Climate change

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 1991
Abstract The first of this book’s thematic chapters addresses the wicked problem of climate change. This is the wicked problem that archaeologists have engaged with most. It is also an area of research that has long focused the minds of heritage practitioners, concerned with the impacts of coast erosion on the survival of what are ...

Abrupt Climate Change

Science, 2003
Large, abrupt, and widespread climate changes with major impacts have occurred repeatedly in the past, when the Earth system was forced across thresholds. Although abrupt climate changes can occur for many reasons, it is conceivable that human forcing of climate change is increasing the probability of large, abrupt events.

A changing climate for climate modeling

IEEE Concurrency, 1999
Is the Earth's climate changing, and to what degree are these changes due to human actions? These are the key questions that must be answered before ratification of the Kyoto Protocol. Measurements must be used to evaluate the credibility of supercomputer models of the atmospheric, oceanic, and biotic systems that determine the world's climate.
