2013-06-27 18:41:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
LiveScience: Human-caused global warming played a role in making this past summer Australia's hottest on record, a new study suggests. The summer of 2012-2013 probably won't retain its title for long; researchers say record-breaking scorching summers are five times more likely to occur now in Australia due to climate change. "Our research has shown that, due to greenhouse gas emissions, these types of extreme summers will become even more frequent and more severe in the future," study author Sophie Lewis...

Mail and Guardian: Sceptics cite a clever bit of mathematical trickery where they "prove" that temperatures have not increased in the last 15 years. They then combine this with the fact that temperature increases in the last decade have not been as rapid as were predicted, and sell the narrative that global warming has paused. This is done by taking a very warm point in 1998 and showing that this has not been exceeded by much in recent years. It's an easy way to distract from real debate. And it has led to sensational...

Global warming will make Indian monsoon worse and unpredictable, says study
2013-06-24 11:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Times India: Scientists have found that the pattern of the Indian monsoon will change under global warming in the future. Computer simulations with a comprehensive set of 20 state-of-the-art climate models now consistently show that Indian monsoon daily variability might increase. Scientists of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research said, "ups-and-downs of Indian monsoon rainfall is likely to increase under warming." Scientists found that a 4% to 12% variability change of daily monsoon rainfall...
