IPCC report: global warming is 'unequivocal'
2013-09-27 10:22:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Telegraph: The new assessment by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change states that it is "extremely likely" humans have been the principal cause of warming since the 1950s. Without making "substantial and sustained reductions" of greenhouse gas emissions, the world can expect an increase of extreme weather including heatwaves and heavy rainfall. Three out of four future climate change scenarios, based on projected levels of gas and aerosol emissions, suggest that by the end of this century global...

Global warming: What the leading scientists say
2013-09-25 20:45:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Independent: A lot has changed since the worlds leading climate scientists last gathered in the name of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 2007, to put the finishing touches to their fourth landmark assessment of the state of global warming. Since the release of that report in Geneva, the world has been through a prolonged and continuing economic downturn. This was arguably good for the environment in the short term, because the resulting slump in manufacturing had the effect of curbing...

Warming in Greenland Sea Outpaces Global Ocean Warming
2013-09-25 18:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: The Greenland Sea is warming nearly 10 times faster than warming rates estimated for the rest of the global ocean, according to research from the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) in Germany. To investigate climate change in the region, the scientists compiled temperature and salinity measurements taken in the Greenland Sea since 1993 and coupled the data with historical observations dating back to the 1950s. Writing in the journal Geophysical Research...

Global Warming to Cause Increase in US Severe Storms, Researchers Report
2013-09-24 20:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: A new climate analysis led by scientists at Stanford University suggests that severe thunderstorms in the United States are likely to increase over the next century as a result of global warming. According the the researchers, severe thunderstorms are one of the primary causes of catastrophic losses in the US, with damage from destructive rainfall, hail and tornadoes resulting in billions of dollars in damages. Last year alone, 11 weather-related events in the US exceeded the $1 billion threshold...
