Renewable Energy, 2002
Abstract This research was aimed to classify the climatic conditions of different locations in Thailand into zones of relatively similar ambient conditions. This classification is extremely useful to the building design for a wide range of objectives such as energy conservation, residential thermal comfort, outdoor design conditions, etc.

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
No one seriously questions that an improved and decarbonized energy supply system is a key component of climate change mitigation, but the United States’ system of federalism complicates the siting of utility-scale renewable energy facilities. The new Biden Administration presents the United States with an opportunity to reimagine how this country ...

Abstract Climate variability, both in space and in time, has a significant impact on nearly every aspect of the Critical Zone. The primary focus of this chapter is on soil moisture because it is an important component of the water balance in the Critical Zone and it is a key parameter that influences land–atmosphere interactions in the climate system

Note: The climate zones respectively climate types, according to the climate regionalization scheme of Huang Bing-wei (1986), were described with particular reference to the major climate characteristics and their variation over space and time. Each climate zone also contains a climate map of China, showing distinctly the spatial distribution of the ...

New Scientist, 2015
Pearce talks about the link between climate and conflict. The idea that the Syrian conflict is a climate war has been around since 2012. The researchers argued that a thought between 2006 and 2009 in north-eastern Syria, the country's breadbasket, was the worst recorded in the region and had been made more likely by long-term, probably human-induced ...

CLIMATIC ZONES OF THE PLEISTOCENE
International Geology Review, 1959Although much emphasis has been placed on the effects of Pleistocene ice sheet as the determinant of Pleistocene climate in Europe, only through the combined evaluation of all useful climatic indicators can Pleistocene climatic zones be differentiated.

Searching for the Goldilocks zone of climate anxiety
Trends in Cognitive SciencesClimate anxiety has both positive and negative potential. It can spur action or hinder it, while taxing mental health. The key lies in balance: a Goldilocks zone wherein anxiety motivates without overwhelming. Cognitive processes, including threat and coping appraisals and future-oriented thinking, may help sustain this adaptive equilibrium.

Climate and Geographical Zones
1986Climate has a profound influence on living organisms. The geographical distribution of plants and animals, and the nature and intensity of biological processes depend to a great extent on climatic conditions. Climatic change is an important factor in the evolution of the biosphere.

Because of the relationship between latitude and global radiation (Sect. 4.1), the radiation balances of the regions near the equator and the poles are very different. The area between the equator and approximately 40° north and south receives more energy than it returns to space, which means that the radiation balance of these regions is positive ...
