22. Geography4Kids.com: Climate Definition of climate and how it varies. http://www.geography4kids.com/files/climate_intro.html

CLIMATE BASICS First a definition... What the heck is a climate? Is it weather? Is it the rain? Is it a hot day in August? Yes, yes and yes, but only in one place at a time. Climate is the atmospheric condition in a certain location near the surface of the Earth. Is the Aurora Borealis (Northern lights) a climate? No. Is there such a thing as a global climate ? Yes. Kind of. It's all of the climates of the planet added up. If the Earth were getting hotter you would have to say, "All of the global climates are increasing in temperature." CLIMATE VARIETY There are many types of climates across the Earth. You live in one of them or one the border between two. Every year as the seasons change, your climate changes a bit. It might get warmer or colder. You might have more or less rain. You might have more or less sunlight that changes all of that other stuff. Scientists have broken down the world's climates into a few types: - Polar: Ice Caps - Polar: Tundra - Subtropical: Dry Summer - Subtropical: Dry Winter - Subtropical: Humid - Subtropical: Marine West Coast - Subtropical: Mediterranean - Subtropical: Wet - Tropical: Monsoon - Tropical: Savannah/Grasslands - Tropical: Wet Studying Clouds NASA hopes to demystify the way clouds work with the launch of the new CloudSat and CALIPSO research satellites. CloudSat is designed to live up to its name by probing the internal structure of clouds. (NASA/KSC)

Partner companies commit to reducing their impact on the global environment by completing a corporate-wide inventory of their greenhouse gas emissions based on a quality management system, setting aggressive reduction goals, and annually reporting their progress to EPA. Through program participation, companies create a credible record of their accomplishments and receive EPA recognition as corporate environmental leaders. Setting the Standard for Greenhouse Gas Management Partner Companies and Goals Climate Leaders Partners range from Fortune 100 corporations to small businesses and represent many industries, from manufacturers and utilities to financial institutions and retailers, with operations in all 50 states.

Subscribe Renew Give a Gift Change Address ... WIRED Science Top Stories Magazine Wired Blogs All Wired Could Methane Trigger a Climate Doomsday Within a Human Lifespan? By Alexis Madrigal Categories: Climate Environment Survival A new paper published appearing Thursday in the prestigious scientific journal Nature presents the worst-case scenario for runaway climate change that could leave the Earth entirely ice-free within a generation. If global temperatures continue to rise, massive amounts of methane gas could be released from the 10,000 gigaton reserves of frozen methane that are currently locked in the world's deep oceans and permafrost. Passing this climate tipping point would result in runaway global warming that would be far worse and more rapid than scientists' current estimates. The new paper suggests that exactly this type of cascading release of methane reserves rapidly warmed the Earth 635 million years ago, replacing an Ice Age with a period of tropical heat. The study's lead author suggests it could happen again, and fast not over thousands or millions of years, but possibly within a century. "This is a major concern because it’s possible that only a little warming can unleash this trapped methane," Martin Kennedy, a professor at UC Riverside, said in a release. "Unzippering the methane reservoir could potentially warm the Earth tens of degrees, and the mechanism could be geologically very rapid."

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), 2001 This map illustrates the local consequences of global warming. FINGERPRINTS : Direct manifestations of a widespread and long-term trend toward warmer global temperatures Heat waves and periods of unusually warm weather Ocean warming, sea-level rise and coastal flooding Glaciers melting Arctic and Antarctic warming HARBINGERS : Events that foreshadow the types of impacts likely to become more frequent and widespread with continued warming. Spreading disease Earlier spring arrival Plant and animal range shifts and population changes Coral reef bleaching Downpours, heavy snowfalls, and flooding Droughts and fires The map of early warning signs clearly illustrates the global nature of climate changes. In its 2001 assessment, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concluded that, “an increasing body of observations gives a collective picture of a warming world and other changes in the climate system." Although factors other than climate may have intensified the severity of some of the events on the map, scientists predict such problems will increase if emissions of heat-trapping gases are not brought under control.

These elements are solar radiation temperature humidity precipitation (type, frequency, and amount), atmospheric pressure , and wind (speed and direction). From the ancient Greek origins of the word ( rays; a latitude zone of the Earth ; a clime) and from its earliest usage in English, climate has been understood to mean the atmospheric conditions that prevail in a given region or zone. In the older form, clime This article treats the factors that produce weather and climate and the complex processes that cause variations in both. Other major points of coverage include global climatic types and microclimates. The article also considers both the impact of climate on human life and the effects of human activities on climate.
