A Million Years of Data Confirms: Monsoons Are Likely to Get Worse – EMTV Online

Share the News Global warming is likely to make India’s monsoon season wetter and more dangerous, new research suggests. Scientists have known for years that climate change is disrupting monsoon season. Past research based on computer models has suggested that the global heating caused by greenhouse gases, and the increased moisture in the warmed atmosphere, will result in rainier summer monsoon seasons and unpredictable, extreme rainfall events. The new paper, published Friday in the journal...

A Million Years of Data Confirms: Monsoons Are Likely to Get Worse

A Million Years of Data Confirms: Monsoons Are Likely to Get Worse The annual summer monsoon in South Asia begins this month. A new study points to more destructive storms. Heavy rains in New Delhi last July. Scientists used core samples from the Bay of Bengal to measure factors that indicate the Indian subcontinent’s monsoon season is getting wetter and worse.Credit...Adnan Abidi/Reuters Global warming is likely to make India’s monsoon season wetter and more dangerous, new research suggest...

Climate tipping points could topple like dominoes, warn scientists

Thu 3 Jun 2021 12.34 EDT Ice sheets and ocean currents at risk of climate tipping points can destabilise each other as the world heats up, leading to a domino effect with severe consequences for humanity, according to a risk analysis. Tipping points occur when global heating pushes temperatures beyond a critical threshold, leading to accelerated and irreversible impacts. Some large ice sheets in Antarctica are thought to already have passed their tipping points, meaning large sea-level rises in...

antarctica conundrum...

  Climate change is expanding Antarcticas sea ice, according to a scientific study in the journal Nature Geoscience. The paradoxical phenomenon is thought to be caused by relatively cold plumes of fresh water derived from melting beneath the Antarctic ice shelves. This melt water has a relatively low density, so it accumulates in the top layer of the ocean. The cool surface waters then re-freeze more easily during Autumn and Winter. This explains the observed peak in sea ice during these seaso...

Solar panels are contagious - but in a good way: Study

 E-Mail The number of solar panels within shortest distance from a house is the most important factor in determining the likelihood of that house having a solar panel, when compared with a host of socio-economic and demographic variables. This is shown in a new study by scientists using satellite and census data of the city of Fresno in the US, and employing machine learning. Although it is known that peer effects are relevant for sustainable energy choices, very high-resolution data combined ...
