Iowa Scientists To Presidential Candidates: Climate Change Is Not Issue Can Be Ignored
2015-05-12 19:56:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ThinkProgress: On Monday, 188 researchers and scientists from across Iowa posed a pointed question to potential presidential candidates: what will you do about climate change? In the fifth annual Iowa Climate Statement, the diverse group of scientists from 39 colleges and universities across the state focus on getting politicians to weigh in on what they plan to do about the problem. The lead authors of the statement feel that climate change has been ignored by presidential candidates from both parties in previous...

Sea level rise accelerates, say scientists
2015-05-12 12:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Blue and Green: Sea level rises across the planet have been accelerating over the past two decades, not declining as previously thought. A new study has found that sea level rise has accelerated in recent decades, countering claims that total sea level rise is lower than previously estimated. Previous research had predicted that over the past 20 years, the rate at which sea levels were rising had slowed down, but the new study suggests a rise of between 2.6 and 2.9mm per year between 1993 and 2010. The...

Sea-level rise accelerating, say scientists
2015-05-11 20:43:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence France-Presse: Sea-level rise is accelerating, not declining as some have hoped, scientists said on Monday citing meltwater from Earth's ice sheets as the likely cause. In 2013, the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) said the global mean sea level rose by 19 centimetres (7.6 inches) from 1901-2010, an average 1.7 mm (0.06 of an inch) per year. This accelerated to 3.2 mm per year between 1993 and 2010, the IPCC said in its landmark Fifth Assessment Report. But in 2014, another study raised...

Biting back: Scientists aim forecast West Nile outbreaks
2015-05-11 07:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: New research has identified correlations between weather conditions and the occurrence of West Nile virus disease in the United States, raising the possibility of being able to better predict outbreaks. The study, by researchers with the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), finds strong correlations across much of the country between an increased occurrence of West Nile virus disease and above average temperatures in the preceding...
