Climate change to boost summer flash floods, says study
2014-06-01 19:04:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: Global warming will lead to a significant increase in extreme summer downpours in the UK, a study suggests. The Met Office and Newcastle University researchers say there could be five times the number of "extreme rainfall events" per hour, under extreme warming projections. This would cause "really severe" flash flooding in many parts of the UK, according to the scientists. However, they caution that this result is based on only one computer model. Flash flooding in Britain has had devastating...

UK summer flash floods to become more frequent, study shows
2014-06-01 19:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Flash flooding in summer is likely to become much more frequent across the UK as a result of climate change, with potentially devastating results in vulnerable areas, according to new research. The study, published in the peer-review journal Nature Climate Change, is the first to draw a direct link between climate change and an increase in summer downpours. The research, a result of a collaboration between the Met Office and Newcastle University, used climate change computer models and standard...

Reducing emissions is the primary way to fight climate change, study finds
2014-06-01 17:30:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Click Green: Climate engineering is unlikely to provide an effective or practical solution to slowing global warming, according to a new study. Reducing the release of carbon remains the only likely answer to tackling climate change ahead of fanciful projects such as positioning giant mirrors in space to reduce the amount of sunlight being trapped in the earth's atmosphere or seeding clouds to reduce the amount of light entering earth's atmosphere. A new report by professors from UCLA and five other universities...
