#Global Warming #ScienceWarum es alle hunderttausend Jahre zu einer Eiszeit kommt, konnte bisher nicht komplett erklärt werden. Nun hat ein internationales Forscherteam mit Schweizer Beteiligung die Faktoren identifiziert: Neben der Sonne spielt die Wechselwirkung von Klima und Gletschern eine Rolle.…
The Underappreciated Importance of Climate Variability
#Global Warming #ScienceOne of the most pervasive misunderstandings of climate is the belief that any long-term trend in a measured climate variable indicates a change in climate, as defined by the IPCC. In practice, “long-term” is often defined to be only a few decades worth of observations.…
