Climate
Change
Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the
statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods
ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a
change in average weather conditions, or in the distribution
of weather around the average conditions (i.e., more or
fewer extreme weather events). Climate change is caused
by factors such as biotic processes, variations in solar
radiation received by Earth, plate tectonics, and volcanic
eruptions. Certain human activities have also been
identified as significant causes of recent climate change,
often referred to as "global warming"
Causes
On the broadest scale, the rate at which energy is received from the sun and
the rate at which it is lost to space determine the equilibrium temperature
and climate of Earth. This energy is distributed around the globe by winds,
ocean currents, and other mechanisms to affect the climates of different
regions.Factors that can shape climate are called climate forcings or
"forcing mechanisms". These include processes such as variations insolar
radiation, variations in the Earth's orbit, mountain
building and continental drift and changes in greenhouse
gas concentrations. There are a variety of climate change feedbacks that
can either amplify or diminish the initial forcing. Some parts of the climate
system, such as the oceans and ice caps, respond slowly in reaction to
climate forcings, while others respond more quickly.Forcing mechanisms
can be either "internal" or "external". Internal forcing mechanisms are
natural processes within the climate system itself (e.g., the thermohaline
circulation). External forcing mechanisms can be either natural (e.g.,
changes in solar output) or anthropogenic (e.g., increased emissions of
greenhouse gases).
