Although the dramatic climate disruptions of the last glacial period have received considerable attention, relatively little has been directed toward climate variability in the Holocene (11,500 cal yr B.P. to the present). Examination of ?50 globally distributed paleoclimate records reveals as many as six periods of significant rapid climate change ...

Climate and climate variability
2010In the following we describe some basic concepts that are fundamental for understanding (marine) climate and climate variability. We begin with a brief historical review on earlier and more modern concepts of climate and subsequently define marine weather and marine climate as used throughout the remainder of this book (Section 1.2).

Climate variability and floods in China - A review
, 2020There is a strong inter-annual and inter-decadal variability in time series of variables related to water abundance, such as intense precipitation, high river discharge, flood magnitude, and flood loss in China.

Implications of climate variability and change on urban and human health: A review
Cities, 2019Urban regions have exceptional attributes that leave their dwellers and properties vulnerable to climate variability and change. Global temperatures continue to change, reaching new levels almost every year for the past two decades.

Weather, 2000
Solar radiation is the fundamental energy source for the atmosphere and the global average equilibrium temperature of the Earth is determined by a balance between the energy acquired by the solar radiation absorbed and the energy lost to space by the emission of heat radiation. The interaction of this radiation with the climate system is complex but it

Climate Variability and Climate Change
2005Climate change and climate variability has received considerable attention from the scientific community in recent decades and has led to a better understanding ofv arious climate phenomena and driving mechanisms. This increased understanding of climate has also prompted policy makers to ask two important questions: (1) How can an improved ...

The common interest in the question of changes in the climate of smaller or larger regions can be explained by the fact that all life on earth, especially the plant life of a region, depends on the climate to a large degree. Temperature and rain primarily have a decisive impact on plant life, each playing a slightly different role.

Natural climate variability and concepts of natural climate variability
1999Concepts of climate variability are formulated based on two frequently used definitions. One considers climate variability as the evolution of the mean climate conditions over time, the other considers second moments or frequencydecomposed covariances (i.e.
