Record-breaking heavy rainfall increased under global warming
2015-07-08 17:11:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Heavy rainfall events setting ever new records have been increasing strikingly in the past thirty years. While before 1980, multi-decadal fluctuations in extreme rainfall events are explained by natural variability, a team of scientists of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research detected a clear upward trend in the past few decades towards more unprecedented daily rainfall events. They find the worldwide increase to be consistent with rising global temperatures which are caused by greenhouse-gas...

Scientists say warming seas kill off coral reefs Pacific, Atlantic oceans

Coral bleaching occurs when coral is stressed by changes in its environment, causing it to release algae living in its tissue. The coral then turns pale or white and becomes more susceptible to disease. In severe cases, it can die, permanently changing the habitat for fish...

UN climate change chief tells charities to stop complaining about global warming

There is a role for opposition and saying no but there is...
