Why do Americans use Fahrenheit instead of celsius?
Because they are conservative. The rest of the world, apart form Burma and Liberia, have adopted the SI system because it is a far superior system of measurement but the US stubbornly does not view that as progress. Is that because it was not led by Americans, I wonder! US scientists have adopted it - and when NASA scientists did not, it led to the disaster of the Mars climate orbiter.
What other factors may play a large role in determining climate?
the presence of dark spot on sun keeps the climate in balanced state ,as these dark spots are a result some reactions radiating large amount of heat. if no dark spots are visible ,the climate will become unstable due to less heat reaching the earth's surface-as is now in2008-10. From 2 years the sun spots have vanished from sun and it had been a concern for the scientists all over the world. further climate change cannot be estimated . in 1700's during the reign of aurangzeb,the sun spots remained vanised for a long period of time and the climate in Europe decreased to such a extent that the people thought that the ice has come back.........
How does the number of sunspots change over time?
The number of sunspots on the sun varies over a period of 10 or 11 years. Some scientists have hypothesized that short-term changes in climate on Earth may be related to sunspot cycles. Satellites have recently collected data that show that the amount of energy the sun produces changes slightly from year to year. Some scientists think that these increases and decreases, which may be linked to the number of sunspots, may cause changes in Earth's temperature.
One horsepower equals how many miles per hour?
Horsepower doesn't determine speed. Even with the weight of the vehicle, climate (road conditions, etc.) and every other factor, horsepower still doesn't translate to an exact speed, but rather a potential amount of power that can be applied.
What do martian meteorites tell us about Mars?
The elements of the meteorite and composition of trapped gases would be based on the constituents of the Martian atmosphere and the planetary crust at the time the meteors were ejected from the Martian surface. Compared to the current conditions on Mars, this could give an indication of how the Martian climate and geology has been changing over time.
How do scientists determine the climate throughout Earth's history?
Scientists use various methods to determine Earth's climate history, such as analyzing ice cores, tree rings, sediment layers, and fossils. By studying these records, scientists can infer past temperatures, precipitation levels, and atmospheric conditions to reconstruct Earth's climate history over millions of years. Climate proxies like isotopes and biomarkers also provide valuable data for understanding ancient climates.
Why do scientists think that climate is changing?
Scientists believe that climate is changing primarily due to human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, which release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat, leading to a warming effect known as global warming. Additionally, scientists observe changes in temperature, sea level rise, and extreme weather events as evidence of climate change.
Do scientists make up the earth's changing climate?
No, scientists neither create the climate, nor imagine the changes occurring within it. Instead, they measure the change.Some climate scientists are financially or politically motivated (generally by the fossil fuel industry) to find no correlation between human activity and climate change. Most scientists, however, lack any financial incentive to find one way or the other. Claims climate scientists not funded by the fossil fuel industry are financially invested in the outcomes of their research are simply false. In fact, climate scientists have an incentive to overturn the current findings. This is how scientists win fame and acclaim--NOT by upholding established findings.
Why do climate scientists believe climate change is real and is of concern?
Climate scientists believe in climate change because of overwhelming evidence showing increases in global temperatures, sea levels, and extreme weather events. These changes are primarily driven by human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation. Climate change poses significant risks to ecosystems, economies, and human health around the world, making it a major concern for scientists and policymakers.
Why are there not any rainforests in Ireland?
This is because rainforests are closer to the equator than Ireland is, we have a temperate climate.
Why aren't any snakes in Ireland?
Scientists have found no fossil evidence of snakes living in Ireland going back to the last ice age. Once the glaciers retreated, the climate warmed and sea levels rose snakes were unable, evidently, to reach the island of Ireland from the mainland of Europe.
What percentage of climate scientists believe in global warming?
Approximately 97 of climate scientists believe in global warming.
What percentage of scientists believe that climate change is real?
Approximately 97 of scientists believe that climate change is real.
Is your climate in the US changing?
No :)
What are the main factor determine climate?
The main factors that determine climate are precipitation, wind, temperature and location. These all come together to determine an areas climate.
Why do most scientists believe that the climate is changing?
Most scientists believe that the climate is changing due to the overwhelming evidence showing increasing global temperatures, rising sea levels, melting glaciers, and more frequent extreme weather events. These changes are primarily driven by human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, which release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and contribute to global warming. Multiple independent studies and scientific assessments support the consensus that human-induced climate change is occurring.
What is a climate change sceptic?
A climate change skeptic is someone who believes one of the following: a. That the climate of the Earth is not changing at an unusually rapid rate, or b. That the climate is changing but people are not responsible for this situation.
