Scientists Cast Doubt On An Apparent 'Hiatus' In Global Warming
2015-06-05 00:38:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
National Public Radio: A team of government scientists has revised its estimate for how much the planet has been warming. The new results, published in the journal Science, may dispel the idea that Earth has been in the midst of a "global warming hiatus" - a period over the past 20 years where the planet's temperature appears to have risen very little. "We think the data no longer supports the notion of having a hiatus," says Tom Karl, a scientist with the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration and...

Scientists Drop Science Bomb on Climate-Change Skeptics

New York Magazine: Over the last couple of years, the conservative movement, which loves science, has had a completely scientific-based reason for skepticism about climate change. The Earth's temperature seemed to be rising at a slower rate than scientists had predicted. The global warming "pause,' as it was inaccurately called -- it was actually "getting warmer at a slower-than-expected rate,' rather than an actual pause -- served as grist for a massive flow of coverage expressing skepticism about scientific models...

El Nio to disrupt rains, cut Africa, E Asia harvests, scientists say

Reuters: Farmers in Africa and East Asia are expected to suffer crop losses as extreme weather linked to the El Nino phenomenon alters rainfall patterns, scientists told a conference on climate change in Bonn on Wednesday. The rainy season has been delayed in several African nations, and it is difficult to predict exactly how large the crop losses will be, said Sonja Vermeulen, a University of Copenhagen scientist. "Peanut farmers in Gambia, for example, have already been hit this year," Vermeulen told...
