Does Global Warming Cause Severe Weather? “Global Weirdness” Excerpt.
This article was published fundamental questions about climate change and answer the question of whether droughts, heat waves, and other extreme weather are due to global warming. The author points out , that reason for more heat waves is pretty obvious and if you define a heat wave as an extended stretch of days when the temperature is well above what we now think of as normal in a month when temperatures are already high then a generally warmer world will have more stretches like this. In addition to that, the author adds, that in a warmer world, more water evaporates from the oceans and other bodies of water, and also from the soil. So the land will tend to be drier—but when it does rain or snow, there’s more water vapor stored up in the atmosphere, so precipitation should be heavier. Analyzing the situation it’s necessary to admit, that it could lead in turn to a higher risk of flooding and even more - it’s difficult to prove definitively that extreme weather events have increased, unless we’re talking about averages over the entire globe, or at least over very large regions. Moreover, the reader should not forget that author clearly gives us a thought, that today, with much better monitoring, it’s a challenge for scientists to gather enough information to draw firm conclusions about long-term trends over large regions. It’s more difficult still to say anything concrete about the role of climate change in single events. It's necessary to admit the fact, that what scientists can say is that events like this should happen more often in a warmer world. If our planet continues to warm as scientists expect—and as our record of observations gets longer and more comprehensive—scientists will be able to make more definitive statements.It would be unfair for the author , not to mention , that using special statistical techniques designed to look at extreme events, scientists have done studies, published after the last major IPCC report on global climate, in, to look at changes in extreme temperature and precipitation events over large areas of the world.The article draws the conclusion that it’s still very hard to say anything definitive about the human fingerprint on specific, local types of extreme weather.
In conclusion, I'd like to say , that all of chemical and physical processes , associated with global warming will always have a huge effect on status of our planet as a whole system and organize - the world's iternal moving and global warming - is a non-breaking process of one structural patter - the Earth And here, the main aim of scientists today -not to try to prophesy some disasters, but to monitor all the current changes of a layer of our Earth and atmosphere, to observe the movement of tectonic masses and study further some of global warming - in order not to obtain unique knowledge ( but it's also really important for next generations ), but to prepare the whole humanity mentally and physically for different future major changes.
Fair!
