California drought, marine heat more likely with warming

Climate Home: A persistent wash of warm waters off the West Coast, which caused wildlife die-offs and blocked drought-quenching storms from reaching California last year, was caused by the happenstance interplay of natural ocean cycles, research findings published Monday show. The findings also suggested that while the drought and the blob of warm water were the result of the natural whims of the weather, climate change could make such events more likely and intense in the future. To a small extent, it's already...

Global warming is shifting Earth's clouds, study shows
2016-07-12 11:14:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: The reaction of clouds to a warming atmosphere has been one of the major sources of uncertainty in estimating exactly how much the world will heat up from the accumulation of greenhouse gases, as some changes would enhance warming, while others would counteract it. The study, detailed Monday in the journal Nature, overcomes problems with the satellite record and shows that observations support projections from climate models. But the work is only a first step in understanding the relationship...

Warming Is Shifting Around Earths Clouds
2016-07-12 00:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: The warming of the planet over the past few decades has shifted a key band of clouds poleward and increased the heights of clouds tops, exacerbating Earth's rising temperature, a new study released Monday suggests. The reaction of clouds to a warming atmosphere has been one of the major sources of uncertainty in estimating exactly how much the world will heat up from the accumulation of greenhouse gases, as some changes would enhance warming, while others would counteract it. The study, detailed...

Thousand-year study reconfirms recent warming in the Australian region
2016-07-11 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Phys.Org: Thousand-year study reconfirms recent warming in the Australian region Warming observed in the Australasian region between 1985-2014 is unusual in the context of the past 1000 years, a landmark study has reported. The study, led by University of Melbourne researchers and published on Monday, July 11, in the Journal of Climate, is the most comprehensive, long-term temperature reconstruction for Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands region. It shows that anthropogenic greenhouse gases...

Global warming: Is it time to phase out fossil fuels?
2016-07-08 08:49:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New Times: They are one of the worlds energy generators and many countries highly rely on them to power industries, transport and energy sectors. However, exploitation of these naturally formed resources has been said to be a major ingredient to global warming, which the world has in the past few years been grappling with. According to Environment and Energy Study Institute, a US-based organisation that aims to promote environmentally sustainable societies, fossil fuels including coal, oil and natural gas,...
