Blue and Green: Climate change is increasing the risk of extreme rainfall and flooding in Britain, according to the findings of a pioneering new study presented at the European Geosciences Union (EGU) conference in Vienna on Wednesday. Following the wettest winter since records began in 1767, during which many parts of the UK were flooded for months, the Oxford University project concludes that manmade global warming has increased the risk of extreme rainfall in southern England and Wales by about 20-25%.

Climate change to intensify important African weather systems
2014-05-01 10:52:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Climate change could strengthen African easterly waves, which could in turn have consequences for rainfall in the Sahel region of northern Africa, formation of Atlantic hurricanes and dust transport across the Atlantic Ocean. Weather systems that bring rainstorms to many drought-prone areas of northern Africa, carry Saharan dust across the ocean and seed Atlantic hurricanes could grow stronger as a result of human-caused climate change, a new analysis by Stanford scientists suggests. Known...

VentureBeat: It will be a profound irony if NASA`s lasting value will be to document from space the planet`s decline. Case in point: The agency released today a scientific visualization video showing the transition of the entire African rainforest in the Congo from green to a drought-stricken brown. The visualization is based on data from NASA satellites, and the related study is published today in the scientific journal Nature. The rainforest is the second largest in the world, after the Amazon. "It`s...
