short answer that describes the differences between weather and climate. Weather and Climate both take the same measuring elements of the environment and atmosphere (Temperature‚ humidity‚ pressure‚ wind speeds‚ precipitation‚ etc.). According to Sturman & Tapper (2006)‚ weather is “the state of the atmosphere at a particular point in time within a defined areas.” This in turn is opposed to Sturman & Tapper’s (2006) take on climate which is “the synthesis of weather observed over a period of many

Topic: “There is nothing that we as individuals can do to prevent climate change”. During last several decades‚ industrialization and human activities have produced greenhouse gases (mainly carbon dioxide). These gases make the earth’s temperature higher that leads to more serious events‚ such as ice smelting‚ floods‚ storms and droughts. This is called “climate change”. Climate change would have significant impacts on environment‚ economy and the way we live so it needs to be prevented. In my

Climate change: Climate change is simply define as change in global weather condition such as temperature‚ pressure etc. Climate change is a change in statistical distribution of weather pattern over time ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be change in weather conditions or distribution of weather around the average condition. Climate change is caused by factors such as oceanic process (e.g. oceanic

Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in average weather conditions‚ or in the distribution of weather around the average conditions (i.e.‚ more or fewer extreme weather events). Climate change is caused by factors such as biotic processes‚ variations insolar radiation received by Earth‚ plate tectonics‚ and volcanic eruptions. Certain human activities have also

8-13-13 7- Acuity Climate Change What is climate change? Climate includes patterns of temperature‚ precipitation‚ humidity‚ wind and seasons. "Climate change" affects more than just a change in the weather‚ it refers to seasonal changes over a long period of time. These climate patterns play a fundamental role in shaping natural ecosystems‚ and the human economies and cultures that depend on them. Because so many systems are tied to climate‚ a change in climate can affect many related aspects
