How does the ocean effect the climate on land? The oceans play a huge role in the climate zones we see on land. Even the area that are nowhere close the the oceans are still effected by the ocean. The oceans act as a heater to the world because of them absorbing insolation rays from the sun. The is a result of land temperature altering faster than the oceans does. However‚ the land still absorbs some insolation but cannot maintain the same heat for as long as the ocean. Especially the tropical

Climate Change In the present-day society‚ the human race is advancing at a staggering rate. However‚ at the meantime‚ the environment has been polluting with the high-tech. The most obvious is climate warming. Therefore‚ we should protect the environment at once. In my opinion‚ the causes of the climate change are multiple. Firstly‚ some people have not the realized the environment which has been polluted‚ so they have not the awareness to protect the environment‚ and even damage the environment

Climate- India The Climate of India is an interesting subject of study - it is just as varied as everything else about India- its people‚ its culture‚ its topography. India is a composite in many ways - and at the core of this composite trait lies its vast and varied topography. From snow capped mountains to clear streams and vast oceans‚ from a desert habitat to lush green tropical forests‚ large plain lands‚ plateaus and mountains - we have it all and even more. India experiences 4 seasons: The

Introduction The topic my group choose was Communication. Now when we thought about this we knew that this was such a broad topic. It can range from how people communicate‚ communication barriers‚ social networks‚ different forms of communication‚ how it can be used in the work place to how different genders react towards communication. Since me and my team members all originated in different generations we allotted different communication topics based upon how important they were to us or how they

GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE EFFECTS ON THE CHAPPARAL Global climate change has been a subject of much discussion for some time now. The earth has naturally gone through heating and cooling phases in its lifetime. Most scientists agree that these changes aren’t solely the product of humans‚ but that the time required for natural climate change has been decreased due to humans. This has led to new problems for the earth and all of its inhabitants. According to research the earth is warming at an average

blocks for a future legal treaty to address climate change amid concerns that commitments to avert acceptable level of global warming remain missing. Negotiators from 194 countries agreed on a set of decision that the un climate secretariat said would set all governments “more firmly on the path towards the low emissions future” and provide support to developing countries on their action on climate change. India played a key role at the climate change summit ‚ proposing a new mechanism to

the change in climate will affect us. John Steven‚ author of climate “Climate change already taking toll‚ even as we ignore it” argues that the subtle changes in climate have been actually causing havoc in nature and could be deadly. I agree with John Steven because he reminds us that we need to look at flooding as a problem‚ caused by climate change. Although well not argued‚ John Stevens also suggests that the melting in the arctic is due to rising temperature brought upon by climate change. One

Australia and Climate Change Australia is an Oceanic country comprised of 23.8 million citizens and it is set to be one of the countries most affected by climate change. Climate change is defined as a change in weather patterns of a regional or global scale. It has recently come to mean the change humans have affected through use of fossil fuels and other activities leading to greenhouse gases and carbon dioxide emissions. Because Australia consists of an entire continent‚ climate change will affect

Introduction Climate is a term used to summarise the long term atmospheric elements that cause the short term weather patterns received in a place (“Climate” Britannica 2015). Climate change is the alterations the climate goes through due to a number of factors. These factors can be described as natural or anthropogenic (“Climate Change” Britannica 2015). Natural drivers of climate change are as a result of natural processes such as changes in the solar activity‚ volcanic activity or the Earth’s
