Is the climate warming or cooling? [PDF]
Numerous websites, blogs and articles in the media have claimed that the climate is no longer warming, and is now cooling. Here we show that periods of no trend or even cooling of the globally averaged surface air temperature are found in the last 34 years of the observed record, and in climate model simulations of the 20

Soil warming increases soil temperature sensitivity in subtropical Forests of SW China [PDF]
Background Soil respiration (RS) plays an important role in the concentration of atmospheric CO2 and thus in global climate patterns. Due to the feedback between RS and climate, it is important to investigate RS responses to climate warming.

The many faces of climate warming [PDF]
The release of the fourth assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) this past February raised the stakes on role of climate warming in our planet’s future. Within the next century our climate is likely to warm by 1.1–6.4C in concert with rising concentrations of greenhouse gases, largely reflecting human influences on ...

Climate warming has substantially shifted plant phenology, which alters the length of growing season and consequently affects plant productivity. Recent studies showed a stalled or reversed impact of climate change on vegetation phenology since 1998, as ...

Cities Exacerbate Climate Warming
Urbanization is a complex land transformation not explicitly resolved within large-scale climate models. Long-term timeseries of high-resolution satellite data are essential to characterize urbanization within land surface models and to assess its ...

Ocean circulation in a warming climate [PDF]
Climate models predict that the ocean's circulation will weaken in response to global warming, but the warming at the end of the last ice age suggests a different outcome.

Investigation of atmospheric particles in Urmia Lake region using a hand-held sun-photometer [PDF]
Urmia Lake is a hypersaline lake in Northwest Iran. Regions inside its water catchment area experience frequent dust events. We are reporting the results of a two-year measurement campaign using a Calitoo sunphotometer, alongside synoptic measurements ...
