CP-KNN: Seasonal to Inter – annual Climate Prediction using Data Mining KNN technique. The impact of seasonal to inter – annual climate prediction on the society, business, agriculture and almost all aspect of human life enforce the scientist to give proper attention to the matter. The last few years show tremendous achievements in this field. All systems, techniques developed so far, use the Sea Surface Temperature (SST) as a main factor among other seasonal climatic attributes. The statistical
As the world becomes continually warmer, the effect of climate change in the arctic regions becomes more intense. Within the past 50 years, arctic regions in Canada have experienced warming of 2 to 3 degrees Celsius (Fergal & Prowse, 2007). One of the most important areas in the Canadian arctic is the Cryosphere (Appendix A), which is the area consisting of season snow cover, permafrost glaciers, and sea ice (Fergal & Prowse, 2007). This area is significant because it has provided a stabilized surface
Australian Climate Australian Climate Zones When looking at the climate of Australia, we can break up the continent into three basic areas of climate. The tropical region containing the northern peninsulas of Australia, as well as the city of Darwin, is hot and extremely wet. Average maximum temperatures range from 30 - 39°C with an average annual rainfall of up to 400 cm. The tropical north is covered with rainforests and is regularly hit by tropical monsoons, hence the extreme amount of
Ocean and Climate The ocean and its massive flow of water or currents are vital to how the heat energy moves between the Earth’s bodies of water, landforms and atmosphere. The ocean is a crucial factor in the storage and transfer of heat energy across the earth. The movement of heat through the ocean currents affects the regulation of weather conditions and temperature extremes. The global climate is directly impacted by the ocean’s current. “The ocean covers more than 71 percent of the Earth’s
Group Climate Group climate consists of the overall sentiment that is displayed within a group. This includes the aspects of honesty, openness, consistency and respect according to “Teamwork” by Lefasto and Larson. When evaluating the characteristics of group climate in a team, the most prevalent component to examine is trust. Trust yields respect, acknowledgement, cohesiveness, a bridge between cultural differences and above all else, sensitivity to ideas being expressed so a consensus can be reached
What is Climate Change: Climate change is the changes in the global climate patterns apparent the mid to late 20 century the climate increased the level of atmospheric Carbon Dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels in the climate process there are many system in the climate process such as food production and availability of land, water, and health risk. Website: http://www.ecy.wa.gov/climatechange.com What is Global Warming? Global Warming is the gradual increase in the overall temperatures
Climate has changed dramatically over geological timescales, it could be argued that the most noticeable change is the global temperature over the last 10,000 years. The changes in global temperature have led to the debate on climate change and discussion of factors that have led to climate change. When it comes to climate change, it is natural to think global temperature is increasing due to human causes such as deforestation. However, in some parts of the world, the temperature has decreased due
fact that the climate is changing. There is abundant evidence that the world is becoming warmer and warmer. The temperature of the global land average temperature has increased by about 8.5 degrees centigrade from 1880 to 2012 (Karr, et al 406). The one or two degrees increase in temperature can cause dramatic and serious consequences to the earth as well as humans. More extreme weather occurs, such as heat waves and droughts. The Arctic Region is especially sensitive to global climate change. According
The earth is a complex system, which continues to evolve and change. Climate change and global warming are currently popular in the political agenda. But what does “climate” really mean? The difference between weather and climate can be conveyed in a single sentence: “Climate is what you expect; weather is what you get.” Based on research of the geologic record, we know that climate change has happened throughout Earth's history and at present, ever-increasing evidence points to the roles that humans
Climate change refers to the variations in the mean and variables of climate properties that persists over long periods and results in one among the most crucial and common problems in the current world. Often, climate change results from human activities or natural gases and has both physical and economic effects on the world and people. Climate change has social effects on aspects such as health, food production, and growth. Climate change causes tremendous spread of certain infectious diseases
which is climate change. Climate change is the long-term change in atmospheric temperatures and climate. Although it has been denied and prolonged the issue now, it has created an even bigger problem and it has to solved and fast. The human impact over all the years of existence has changed the Earth’s climate completely. More severe storms are occurring, higher and lower temperatures than normal are reported, and some of the planet’s nonrenewable resources are slowly disappearing. Climate Change
major problem on global warming due to climate change. Climate problems may not take up any awareness among people in today’s society. Humans are responsible for many of the climate problems we are facing. Climate changes naturally and the current trend of global warming started before the industrial revolution. Before the climate change the climate was a lot warmer. Weather and temperature could be one of the major issues that affects global warming and climate change. Global temperatures Global warming
Climate change is a long term change in the earth’s climate. Climate change is attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels. There are 328,000,000 cubic miles of seawater on the planet, covering approximately 71 percent of the earth's surface. Ninety-seven percent of all water is in the oceans. The other three percent is divided amongst the two percent ice and one percent fresh water. Making earth’s waters composed mostly of salt water
several question will be answered concerning this topic such as; what is climate change? How is it caused? What is causing sea levels to rise? And are natural disasters related to Climate Change? In the analysis part of this essay I will write about the natural climate and temperature changes our earth has faced in the past, and will conclude by summarizing all the above in the conclusion segment of this paper. Discussion Climate change is an alteration in the statistical dispersal of weather patterns

The findings of this research rejected the hypothesis that both international students studying in Australia and local people in Australia, United Kingdom, United States and Europe have similar opinions about climate change, but overseas
Climate Justice: Why the Principle of Common but Differentiated Responsibilities Matters? 1A141951-0 He Yanjun There are two different meanings lying under the phrase “climate justice”. One of it calls for justice between different generations. And the other calls for justice within the generations. The focus of this essay is on the second meaning of “climate justice”. More specifically, the essays is trying to analyze the “North-South divide” appeared in the context of environmental politics
earlier than normal, thus causing shorter and warmer autumns and winters. This, in turn, allows less time for the ice which melted in the warm months to freeze over again in the cold months. The seriousness of this issue is discussed in a report titled Climate Change Impacts on Arctic Wildlife by Greenpeace researchers Michelle Allsopp, David Santillo, and Paul Johnston (2012). They state that the shorter season of the temporary sea ice
Climate changes have always affected societies and ecosystems Climate change has intensely disturbed human civilizations and the biological and physical environment in the preceding years. During history there are instances of societal downfall related with provincial changes in climate, varying from the regression of the Maya in Mexico (connected to drought) to the loss of the Viking population from Greenland in the 15th century (related to declining temperatures). Several of these provincial climate
It is undisputable that climate variability and change are global phenomena, which have become a big challenge to humankind and how they relate to their immediate environment (IPCC, 2013). Climate change is the change in average weather conditions over a long period of time, whereas climate variability is the annual climate fluctuations above or below a long term average value. Though climate change is a relatively new phenomenon exacerbated by human influence, which threatens the livelihoods, different
