Abstract Scientific experimentation recorded in the Journal of Climate by Korty‚ Emanuel‚ and Bar‚ (2008) shows that the intensity‚ frequency‚ and lifetime of cyclones is directly related to the warming of the atmosphere‚ oceanic mixing‚ and the availability of a surplus of carbon dioxide. Cyclones are increasing in intensity but because of how few reach landfall and the lack of data related to landfall destruction no visible trends have been formed (Landsea‚ Pielke‚ & Emanuel‚ 2005). The forecast

Developing an effective climate is therefore a key component for any organisation seeking to raise their game or increase their productivity. So what exactly IS climate? Climate can be described as ‘the unwritten rules’ or ‘the way things are around here’. It is a complex blend of attitudes‚ expectations‚ policies and norms that effect motivations & behaviours. Within every organisation a climate exists. Within every team or workgroup a micro-climate exists – and factors such as leadership style

There are three major biomes in Australia: Tropical Savanna Desert Human Interactions Climate change impacts are expected to have significant social‚ economic and environmental consequences worldwide. Ongoing population growth and development in highly urbanized coastal areas will make worse the predicted impacts on the coasts. Climate The southern part of the state has a Mediterranean climate.

The Climate Crisis Global warming: an increase in the earth’s atmospheric and oceanic temperatures widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution. Given the definition it may not sound as scary as it actually is. The whole process of global warming is a science in itself. It may also be known as `the climate crisis’ because scientists believe that the occurrence of such extreme temperatures will bring our earth to turmoil

The Kyoto Protocol is a legally binding international agreement to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions causing climate change‚ which was initially negotiated during the CoP-3 meeting held Kyoto‚ Japan in 1997. The agreement would commit industrialized countries to reduce emissions of six greenhouse gases (excluding 03 and water vapor) by 5% by 2012. Rather than placing

Malaria is an infectious disease caused by a parasite‚ Plasmodium‚ which infects red blood cells. Malaria is characterized by cycles of chills‚ fever‚ pain‚ and sweating.

Walpole when describing the disease. The term was shortened to "malaria" in the 20th century. C. Laveran in 1880 was the first to identify the parasites

King Tutankhamun’s sickness called malaria is the most logical way that Tut died so young. According to NYTimes article “Scientist have now determined that the most likely agents of death: a severe bout of malaria combined with a degenerative bone condition.” This shows that scientist may have found scientific evidence that says that Tut died from malaria. For example malaria shuts down your organs‚ and your organs help you have strength. If Tuts organs failed he could have fallen‚ and nobody was
