Grist: Scientists and science journalists like to say that one of the best ways to tell that climate change is real is to take a look at the changes we can already see: This year is on track to be the hottest ever recorded, and glaciers, corn, and even grizzly bears are responding to the warming. But all those shifts won`t be enough to convince most conservative climate skeptics, a new study in Nature Climate Change finds. A growing body of recent research suggests a person`s political ideology, economic...

Hot enough? Things are going to get hotter in Australia

Sydney Morning Herald: Australia's unusually hot and dry weather is set to extend well into summer with the Bureau of Meteorology predicting increased risks of bushfires and heatwaves. The bureau's latest three-month outlooks for temperature and rainfall covering the November-January period indicate the likelihood of drier-than-normal conditions across most of eastern Australia, particularly the north-east. For Sydney, the immediate forecast is for mostly dry weather, with a maximum 31 degrees reached on Thursday...
Hotter Oceans Explain Global Warming 'Pause'

Truthdig: One of the most hotly-argued questions in climate research -- whether global warming has slowed or even stopped -- appears to have been definitively answered. And the scientists` conclusion is unambiguous: the Earth continues to warm at a dangerous pace. All that`s happening, they say, is that the extra heat being produced -- mainly by the burning of fossil fuels -- is concentrating not in the skies but in the seas. They have found new evidence that backs them up. Instead of driving up the...

Oceans Getting Hotter Than Anybody Realized

Climate Central: The RV Kaharoa motored out of Wellington, New Zealand on Saturday, loaded with more than 100 scientific instruments, each eventually destined for a watery grave. Crewmembers will spend the next two months dropping the 50-pound devices, called Argo floats, into the seas between New Zealand and Mauritius, off the coast of Madagascar. There, the instruments will sink and drift, then measure temperature, salinity and pressure as they resurface to beam the data to a satellite. The battery-powered floats...
Take heed city dwellers: its hot and getting hotter

Indian Country: Buildings, roads, and other infrastructure that make up urban environments typically make cities hotter than surrounding rural areas, a condition known as an urban heat island. If you live in Albuquerque, Denver, Minneapolis, Portland or Seattle, you inhabit a notably hotter environment than do your rural neighbors during the hottest months of the year, thanks to the urban heat island effect. Other cities with large Native American populations like Tulsa, Oklahoma City, and Tucson suffer, too....
