Climate: The Neglected Factor?
International Journal: Canada's Journal of Global Policy Analysis, 1981Yet it can be argued that climate is one of the major determinants of economic performance. It certainly matters to the strategist and to the farmer. The annual cycle of temperature largely determines the capacity needed for our electric power systems. There is scarcely an economic or a political domain in which climate does not play a major role. Why,

Journal of the Franklin Institute, 1919
THE following is a discussion of the principal factors, and the effects of their possible changes, that determine what the climate --the various averages and extremes of weather-of any given place shall be; a discussion of the physics of climate and not of its geographic distribution.

Climatic factors and bipolar affective disorder
Nordic Journal of Psychiatry, 2008In bipolar disorder, the factors provoking a new episode are unknown. As a seasonal variation has been noticed, it has been suggested that weather conditions may play a role. The aim of the study was to elucidate whether meteorological parameters influence the development of new bipolar phases.

CLIMATIC FACTOR IN MASTOIDITIS
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1939A vast literature deals with climate in general terms. In the past, physicians have thought in terms of long-continued effects on the human organism and therefore of climate rather than weather. One of the real difficulties with the meteoropathologic literature is the fact that it almost invariably deals in general terms.

International Climate Negotiation Factors
2017Analyses a number of climate negotiation records at the highest political level (country commitments), as well as at more technical negotiation levels (working out technical modalities). Offers readers essential insights into the factors that influence the success and failure of climate negotiations.

The idea that surface relief is explained entirely by geology has become commonplace. Specialists know however, or they ought to know, that relief depends on climate almost as much as on the bedrock. It is the object of this article to recall some significant facts on this question and to try to characterise the nature of this influence.

Estimation of Local Climatic Factors under Climate Change
1994A stochastic space-time model for estimating the effect of global climate change scenarios on regional/local climatic factors is presented. Specifically, daily precipitation and temperature are considered. The approach is based on an analysis of daily atmospheric circulation patterns which are defmed as pressure surfaces using available data.

Some climatic factors in Australian health
Social Science & Medicine. Part D: Medical Geography, 1980Abstract This preliminary review paper examines the incidence of some diseases and causes of death in Australia in relation to climatic factors, or at least to any seasonal or other rhythm. Skin cancers are clearly related to exposure to ultraviolet radiation, which is particularly effective in Australia.

Controlling Factors of the Climate
1988Since climate represents the characteristic biospheric conditions at a location or area, it chiefly results from the varying solar and atmospheric moisture and circulation conditions over space and time. Climate at any space or time level is, therefore, represented by certain expressions of the various atmospheric elements, which are concerned with ...
