Climate change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather over periods of time that range from decades to millions of years. It can be a change in the average weather or a change in the distribution of weather events around an average (for example, greater or fewer extreme weather events). Climate change may be limited to a specific region, or may occur across the whole Earth. In recent usage, especially in the context of environmental policy, climate change usually refers to changes in modern climate. It may be qualified as anthropogenic climate change, more generally known as "global warming" or "anthropogenic global warming" (AGW). For information on temperature measurements over various periods, and the data sources available, see temperature record. For attribution of climate change over the past century, see attribution of recent climate change. From Wikipedia under the

During the last Ice Age, the glacial northern ice cap extended down into the American Midwest, covered over New York under a mile of ice, and down into California. Since the warming period began, the glaciers have been driven back by about 2,000 miles to the top of Canada and Greenland. New land has been exposed for forests, wildlife, agriculture and human habitation. We now have build cities on land that was once crushed under that deadly ice. The fertile soil of the Midwest is a result of glaciers pulverizing rocks into powder. In New York's Central Park, we can see rock that was sculpted and grooved by the mile-high glaciers that once ground… [cont.] Answered by speakeasy - Sun Aug 24 00:43:36 2008 What human contribution is made to climate change and global warming?

Q. The full task is: Describe the four methods used to study climate change. For each method, identify one climate in which it would be used. Can anyone help me? Asked by Helena - Sat Jan 19 14:20:46 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. You're not getting any answers because the question is bogus; there are far more than four methods and the problem is global, thus each method must be applied to all climates. See the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change link below for a list of methodologies and tools.
