Changing Ecosystems: Effects of Global Warming - 8 Angebote vergleichen
Bester Preis: € 33,32 (vom 06.02.2017)Climate Systems: Interactive Forces of Global Warming
ISBN: 9780816072606 bzw. 0816072604, vermutlich in Englisch, Facts on File, Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika, gebraucht.
Many scientists today refer to the phenomenon of "global warming" as "climate change" because they feel it is a better overall description of the situation. While it is certainly true that the atmosphere is warming up, that is only one part of the problem. As the Earth's atmosphere continues to warm, glaciers and ice caps are melting, the sea level is rising, seasons are shifting, and storms are becoming more intense. Some ecosystems are shifting where they still can; others are beginning to fail. In short, humans are changing the Earth's climate--and not for the better.

Science, Many scientists today refer to the phenomenon of 'global warming' as 'climate change' because they feel it is a better overall description of the situation. While it is certainly true that the atmosphere is warming up, that is only one part of the problem. As the Earth's atmosphere continues to warm, glaciers and ice caps are melting, the sea level is rising, seasons are shifting, and storms are becoming more intense. Some ecosystems are shifting where they still can; others are beginning to fail. In short, humans are changing the Earth's climate - and not for the better. Climate Systems gives students the basic scientific framework needed to understand how climate systems work and what global warming involves. Outlining the concepts of global systems, climate cycles, and the atmosphere's structure, this full-color book discusses the local motions in the atmosphere that affect weather and climate - from regional and local wind systems to extreme weather and emergency preparedness. This informative volume also examines various countries and how they contribute to the problem as well as strategies for coping with global climate change, current research, and what lies ahead. Chapters of this guide include: Elements of the Climate System; the Carbon Cycle and Its Links to Other Major Cycles; Plate Tectonics - Climate and Movement of the Earth's Continents; the Flow of Energy; Planetary and Global Motions in the Atmosphere that Affect Climate; Local Motions in the Atmosphere That Affect Weather and Climate; Ocean Currents; the Global Warming Issue; the Big Picture; and, Conclusions and a Glance into the Future. eBook.
Changing Ecosystems
ISBN: 9780816072637 bzw. 0816072639, in Englisch, Infobase Publishing, neu, E-Book.
Science, Global warming has increased dramatically during the last century at an unnatural rate, which makes specialists believe that humans contribute to the real cause of global warming. This book looks at this serious issue and the far-reaching effects it is having, and can have in the future, on every ecosystem on Earth. eBook.

Effects of Global Warming, Global warming has increased dramatically during the last century at an unnatural rate, which makes specialists believe that humans contribute to the real cause of global warming today. Many activities humans are involved in--from burning fossil fuels for energy to massive deforestation--are contributing to the atmospheric warming at an alarming rate. Experts believe that in the future human induced damage will cause severe problems in the distribution of species and their critical habitats, increase the occurrence of severe weather and droughts, contribute to rising sea levels, and trigger a host of health and quality-of-life impacts that will affect everyone on Earth. Unfortunately, no ecosystem will escape the impact of human-induced global warming.
