Spatio-temporal analyses of the impacts of extreme weather events on renewabl...Global Risk Forum GRFDavos
This document discusses the impacts of extreme weather events on renewable energy infrastructure in Germany. It outlines that heavy rain can damage hydroelectric plants and reduce output. Wind turbines are vulnerable to tornadoes and severe storms. Photovoltaic panels can be disturbed by thunderstorms, hail, high winds and lightning. Germany's climate mitigation concepts aim to integrate risk analyses of extreme weather with analyses of potential renewable energy sites. Regulations for distances between infrastructure and weather risks could be standardized nationwide. The concepts seek to develop sustainable renewable energy systems resilient to climate change impacts.Socio-Economic Environment in the Rural Areas of the Caribbean
The document summarizes the socio-economic environment in rural areas of the Caribbean. It notes that agriculture contributes less than 10% to GDP but employs around 31% of the population. The agricultural sector and sugar specifically are important to many Caribbean economies. Rural areas face issues like declining quality of life, environmental degradation, unemployment, and crime. The decline is blamed on globalization, input costs, lack of leadership, reduced international assistance, and subsidies in other countries. Reversing the decline requires diversifying rural economies, fairer trade rules for small economies, education support, technology transfers, regional cooperation, and addressing climate change.

Climate change as problem of national and international security rather than ...Global Water Partnership Central and Eastern Europe
Climate change poses national and international security risks rather than just environmental issues. As the global population and consumption rises, climate change will exacerbate issues around food, water, and energy security. These converging trends could overwhelm societies' ability to adapt and increase conflicts over scarce resources. Climate change threatens to degrade human livelihoods through increased natural disasters, food insecurity, and energy poverty. National security strategies should directly address climate change risks and evaluate preparedness for extreme weather events and capacity to respond to climate impacts. Ambitious global climate policy that focuses on mitigation and adaptation is needed to prevent conflicts over issues like water and food security.Livestock-Climate Change CRSP Annual Meeting 2011: PTRF Project Update (K.

An overview of the Livestock-Climate Change CRSP PTRF (Pastoral Transformations to Resilient Futures--Understanding Climate from the Ground Up) Project and update on the project's current status. Presentation given by K. Galvin (Colorado State University) at the Livestock-Climate Change CRSP Annual Meeting, Golden, CO, April 26-27, 2011.Environmental lack of development
Environmental hazards such as droughts, tropical storms, floods, earthquakes, and volcanoes negatively impact development in less economically developed countries (LEDCs). Climatic hazards like droughts and storms are more responsible for loss of life globally than tectonic events. Tropical areas where many LEDCs are located experience more frequent and severe climatic hazards compared to temperate regions. When hazards do occur, their impacts are worse in LEDCs due to factors like buildings not being constructed to withstand disasters and lack of emergency infrastructure.

Reducing vulnerability and increasing resilience to climate change in the coa...M S Swaminathan Research Foundation
This document discusses approaches to reducing vulnerability and increasing resilience to climate change in coastal areas of India. It summarizes the history of coastal zone management regulations in India and notes issues with frequent amendments diluting effectiveness. The M.S. Swaminathan Committee suggested balancing economic development, community development, and ecological development for sustainable development. However, current policies and resource allocations prioritize economic development, increasing vulnerability. Climate change impacts like sea level rise and stronger cyclones further exacerbate problems. The document advocates integrating sustainable development, climate change adaptation, and disaster risk reduction strategies in a mutually reinforcing manner to reduce vulnerability and increase resilience of coastal ecosystems and communities. It proposes testing this integrated approach in a cyclone-prone coastal districtHenk Ovink, Embajador de Asuntos de Agua de Holanda
This document discusses the risks of climate change-related flooding. It notes that by 2050, over 1.6 billion people are projected to live in flood-prone areas, with most of those in developing countries. Developing countries in South and East Asia will see the largest increases in populations exposed to flooding risks and associated economic damages. While developed countries will face greater total economic damages from flooding, developing countries will see the most people affected and vulnerable due to flooding.
Ict and climate change in bangladesh
The document discusses how information and communication technologies (ICT) can help reduce climate change. It notes that climate change is a major threat, negatively impacting over 2 billion people through issues like water stress, displacement, and malnutrition. Bangladesh is particularly vulnerable, with its government investing over $10 billion to combat problems from floods, cyclones, and droughts exacerbated by climate change. The presentation argues that ICT can help address these challenges through applications that support climate change mitigation and adaptation, empower vulnerable populations, and increase awareness of solutions. Key priorities include recognizing ICT's role in policy, fostering partnerships for innovation, and localizing projects to build community ownership.
Hdr 20072008 Presentation[1]
The document discusses the urgent need to address climate change through both mitigation and adaptation efforts. It notes that the world has less than a decade to avoid dangerous climate change. While climate change threatens all of humanity, the poor face the most severe impacts despite contributing least to emissions. The report calls for developed countries to cut emissions by 80% by 2050 and developing countries by 20% to avoid exceeding a global carbon budget. However, international cooperation on climate financing has been inadequate to address adaptation needs.
Drought
Droughts occur when there is not enough rainfall to support people or crops and can have severe consequences. Drought is caused by both natural factors like changes in weather patterns as well as human factors such as deforestation, overpopulation, and overextraction of water. The vast majority of deaths from drought have occurred in three countries: Ethiopia, Sudan, and Mozambique. Case studies of drought in Ethiopia and Australia show how drought can impact populations through famine, disease, loss of livestock, and economic hardship. Responses to drought involve aid efforts, management of water resources, and strategies to prevent desertification.
Climate Change: - Projections - Effects - Consequences - Remedies - Pakistan
This document discusses the projections and effects of climate change, including increased global surface warming, sea level rise, and more intense tropical cyclones. It outlines how climate change will negatively impact key sectors like water, food, health, and security. Some consequences of climate change are more intense cyclones, wildfires, floods, droughts, and population movement. Recommended remedies include increasing green energy, sustainable transportation and infrastructure, and responsible consumption. The document also outlines steps Pakistan is taking towards a greener environment, such as tree plantation projects, electric vehicles, solar power plants, and better public transportation.
Comenius 2010-Effect of climate change on tourism
Comenius 2010-Effect of climate change on tourismDebreceni Bethlen Gábor Közgazdasági Szakközépiskola
This document discusses the impacts of climate change on tourism. It notes that climate change is causing more frequent extreme weather events like heat waves, heavy rains, and droughts. This is already damaging some tourist attractions and could destroy popular tourist resorts. Specifically for Hungary, climate change may lengthen the tourist season but could reduce winter sports tourism as winters become milder. The biggest problem for tourism is that famous attractions can be destroyed by climate change effects, reducing the number of tourist sights and destinations in affected areas. The EU is calling for collective action to address climate change through reducing energy use and increasing recycling.Impact of Climate Change on Tourism in Canada
1) Climate change poses risks to Canada's tourism industry through direct impacts like warmer temperatures and extreme weather, and indirect impacts like economic costs and infrastructure damage.
2) The tourism sector accounts for 4.95% of global greenhouse gas emissions, with 75% from transportation. Canada must measure its tourism footprint and commit to reducing emissions 50-80% from 2000 levels to limit global warming to 2°C.
3) Adaptation strategies are needed to increase the resilience of vulnerable tourism sectors and communities to climate impacts. These include education, carbon pricing, sustainable transportation, and rethinking growth targets.
20091202 Comenius Political Aspects
The document discusses how global warming affects politics worldwide. It focuses on several international issues related to climate change and resource scarcity. Specifically, it discusses the Copenhagen Conference which aimed to reduce CO2 emissions and renew the Kyoto Protocol. It also mentions potential conflicts over water resources between countries in Africa, the Middle East, and those sharing river systems like the Nile. Cooperation between nations on climate investments and water sharing agreements are discussed as ways to prevent tensions and wars related to global warming impacts.
Climate Change and National Security
This document discusses the connections between climate change and national security. It argues that climate change impacts like rising sea levels, extreme weather, and decreased agricultural productivity could exacerbate global tensions and conflicts by threatening water and food security. Climate change is a threat multiplier that makes existing security challenges even more difficult to manage. The document outlines implications for military roles, including increased humanitarian and disaster response missions both domestically and abroad. It also discusses impacts on infrastructure, supply lines, and the need for militaries to adapt operations and reduce their own emissions. Overall, the document advocates for serious consideration of how climate change could threaten global stability and shape future security environments.
Introduction to Climate Change
This document provides an introduction to climate change, discussing the greenhouse effect, historical and projected changes in temperature and precipitation for Wisconsin. It notes that Wisconsin's climate is already changing, with a 1-1.5°F warming since 1950 and longer growing seasons. Projections suggest further warming of around 10°F by 2090, along with more frequent extreme weather events and more winter precipitation falling as rain rather than snow. The risks of these changes to areas like agriculture, forestry and human health are also summarized.
Climate change and defense
Climate change poses security risks for India through its impacts. Rising sea levels and extreme weather events may displace millions of people in India and cause food and water insecurity. This could exacerbate existing social tensions and conflicts. Neighboring countries like Bangladesh may see environmental refugees fleeing to India, altering demographics. Water disputes may also arise between India and its neighbors like China and Pakistan. The Indian military will need to adapt operations and potentially provide more humanitarian aid. Overall, climate impacts threaten stability in India and could impact its relationships in South Asia.
Ipcc ar5 tourism ppt v2
This document summarizes key findings from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's Fifth Assessment Report regarding the implications of climate change for the tourism sector. Rising global temperatures are projected to have numerous direct and indirect impacts on tourism by reducing the attractiveness of many destinations and affecting tourism operations through extreme weather and water availability issues. Specific tourism sub-sectors like winter sports and coastal areas are especially at risk. The tourism sector accounts for 3.9-6% of global CO2 emissions and its emissions are projected to grow substantially by 2035 without mitigation efforts. Adaptation strategies exist but high emissions scenarios may overwhelm adaptation capabilities.
Livelihoods approaches and climate change
Presentation by Terry Cannon from the Institute of Development Studies, at the Sustainable Livelihoods Approaches seminar on 26th January 2011, at the Institute of Development Studies, Brighton, UK.
Presentation
Studying geography is important because the world is facing unprecedented global challenges. Events happening in different parts of the world like famine in Somalia, the Arab Spring uprisings, and civil war in Syria influence each other and have worldwide impacts. The global economy is also interconnected - the debt crisis in Greece spread to other European Union countries and affects the U.S. economic recovery as well. Understanding these global economic, environmental, and political connections is key as problems anywhere in the world can negatively impact people everywhere.
Climate Change: Implications for Cities
The Fifth Assessment Report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is the
most comprehensive and relevant analysis of our changing climate. It provides the scientific fact base that will be used around the world to formulate
climate policies in the coming years.This document is one of a series synthesizing the most pertinent findings of AR5 for specific economic and business sectors. It was born of the belief that the cities sector could make more use of AR5, which is long and highly technical, if it were distilled into an accurate, accessible, timely, relevant and readable summary. Although the information presented here is a ‘translation’ of the key content relevant to this sector from AR5, this summary report adheres to the rigorous scientific basis of the original source material.
Grateful thanks are extended to all reviewers from both the science and business communities for their time, effort and invaluable feedback on this document. The basis for information presented in this overview report can be found in the fully-referenced and peer-reviewed IPCC technical and scientific background reports at: www.ipcc.ch

The document discusses the water cycle and cloud formation. It explains that clouds form through three steps: 1) an air mass rises due to mechanisms like convection currents or colliding with another air mass, 2) the air mass cools and expands as it rises, and 3) condensation occurs when the air reaches its lifting condensation level. It also classifies clouds by height and shape, describes different types of precipitation like rain, snow, sleet and hail, and outlines the basic water cycle of evaporation, condensation and precipitation.

The document discusses the vulnerability of Africa to climate change and the effects seen in Nigeria from severe flooding in 2012. It notes that Africa is highly vulnerable to climate change due to multiple stress factors, including physical factors like varied climates, economic issues like poverty and agricultural dependence, and capacity deficits. The 2012 flooding in Nigeria affected over 7 million people across many states, destroying agricultural land, infrastructure, and housing. The floods were likely worsened by climate change impacts along with socioeconomic and land use issues. Effective responses are challenged by high costs and limited institutional capacity.

Physical Geography Lecture 04.5 - Earth's Atmosphere 101016
The document discusses key concepts about Earth's atmosphere including:
1. The atmosphere is composed primarily of nitrogen and oxygen gases. It also contains variable amounts of gases like carbon dioxide and ozone that influence climate.
2. Solar radiation is processed as it passes through the atmosphere, being scattered, absorbed, or transmitted. Particulates play an important role by reflecting or absorbing sunlight.
3. Temperature varies with altitude, decreasing in the troposphere due to conduction and the environmental lapse rate, and increasing in the stratosphere due to ozone absorption of UV light.
GEOG101 Chapt04 lecture
This document provides an overview of key concepts in climatology, including the difference between weather and climate, factors that influence air temperature and pressure, global circulation patterns, types of precipitation and storms, climate regions, and climatic change. It describes how solar radiation, the tilt of the Earth's axis, land and ocean currents, and greenhouse gases impact climate on global and regional scales.
Depressions and anticyclones synoptic charts
Depression and anticyclone are meteorological terms. A depression is an area of low atmospheric pressure that brings cloudy, wet and windy weather. An anticyclone is an area of high atmospheric pressure that brings stable weather conditions with less cloud cover and precipitation.
Heating The Earth
Solar radiation provides most of the energy that drives environmental processes on Earth. It warms the atmosphere and surface through various absorption, scattering, and reflection interactions as it passes through the atmosphere. Variations in solar insolation at different latitudes and across seasons are caused by changes in the orientation of the Earth relative to the sun throughout the year.
Chapter 18
This document provides an overview of the water cycle and atmospheric moisture. It discusses the three states of water, the processes of evaporation, condensation, and sublimation. It describes how temperature and pressure affect the amount of water vapor air can hold. Cloud formation results from air rising and cooling, releasing water as condensation. Precipitation forms as cloud droplets grow very large. The document also discusses atmospheric stability and various mechanisms that cause air to rise and form clouds.
Reading synoptic charts
This document discusses how to analyze synoptic charts and weather maps to predict weather patterns and systems like high and low pressure areas, wind speed and direction, rainfall, and tropical cyclones. It instructs the reader to examine sample weather maps from different dates to identify changes in these systems and use that information to make predictions about an upcoming date, then check those predictions against real weather data.
Awakening Africa’s Sleeping Giant Prospects for Advancing Inclusive and Susta...
This document summarizes a presentation given at the Fifth World Summit on Agriculture Machinery in Istanbul, Turkey on January 21, 2016. It discusses the importance, challenges, and opportunities for agriculture in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), as well as current efforts and future prospects for advancing inclusive and sustainable agricultural mechanization. Specifically, it notes that agriculture accounts for 20% of GDP in SSA on average but faces challenges of high poverty, food demand increases, and climate change impacts. Mechanization has stagnated in SSA compared to other regions due to underinvestment historically. However, new policies and investments are supporting mechanization through strategies, loans, and public-private partnerships. The future market potential in SSA is seen as
Unit 2 Earth's Atmosphere
This document provides an overview of Earth's atmosphere including its composition, structure, and circulation patterns. It discusses key topics like the greenhouse effect, carbon cycle, climate zones, and factors that create suitable conditions for life. The atmosphere is divided into four main layers - the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere - each with distinct temperature characteristics. Atmospheric circulation is driven by convection, wind patterns, and interactions between air masses. Climate and weather are also influenced by feedback loops within the carbon cycle and factors like albedo that can both amplify and dampen global temperature changes.
Earth’s Atmosphere: A Basic Intro
The document summarizes key aspects of Earth's atmosphere. It describes that Earth's atmosphere is composed primarily of nitrogen and oxygen. It also notes that the atmosphere becomes thinner with increasing altitude and discusses the layers of the atmosphere, including the troposphere where weather occurs. Additionally, it introduces atmospheric circulation patterns driven by uneven solar heating, including Hadley cells that transport energy from the equator to higher latitudes.
The earth’s atmosphere and energy transfer
The Earth's atmosphere consists of several layers including the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. The troposphere contains most of the weather and extends from the Earth's surface to about 10 km. Above that, the stratosphere contains much of the ozone layer which protects the Earth from UV radiation. The mesosphere is a cold layer above the stratosphere where temperatures decrease with altitude. Above that, the thermosphere contains the ionosphere and absorbs solar radiation, causing temperatures to rise dramatically with altitude.
Earth’s atmosphere
The document summarizes key information about Earth's atmosphere, including its composition, layers, and importance. It discusses the following main points:
1. Earth's atmosphere is made up primarily of nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%), along with smaller amounts of other gases like argon, carbon dioxide, and water vapor.
2. The atmosphere is divided into four main layers - the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere - which vary in temperature and density.
3. Key functions of the atmosphere include absorbing solar energy, recycling water and chemicals, protecting the planet from radiation, and supporting life on Earth.
Factors affecting the climate
in this presentation, it will help you to learn the factors and causes that affects the climate of a particular place or country.
Africa
- Africa is the second largest continent, surrounded by water on all sides. It stretches from latitude 37°N to 35°S.
- There are 54 independent nations in Africa today, though it was under European rule for a long time.
- Key physical features include mountains like the Atlas Mountains in the northwest and Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Kenya in the east. There are also high plateaus in the east and south bounded by highlands. The Great Rift Valley stretches over 8,000 km from Zambezi River to the Red Sea.
- Major rivers include the Nile and Congo rivers, and the Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River are higher and wider
Solar energy, Uneven Heating of Earth, Wind, and Ocean Currents
The document discusses sea breezes and land breezes caused by uneven heating of land and water surfaces. During the day, the land heats up more quickly than the ocean, causing warm air over the land to rise and cooler air over the water to move inland, creating a sea breeze. At night, the pattern reverses as the land cools more quickly, resulting in a land breeze with warm air moving from the ocean to the land. Diagrams show this cycle of convection currents and the directional shift of winds between day and night.

The document discusses integrating disaster risk reduction (DRR) approaches into microfinance practices in the Philippines. It notes that the Philippines is highly vulnerable to various natural hazards like typhoons and climate change impacts. Mainstreaming DRR into microfinance can help reduce clients' vulnerability and build community resilience by providing financial products and services tailored to local risks. This includes risk assessments, risk-reducing livelihood options, and building community preparedness and response capacity.
Water Related Disasters and Concepts of IWRM
The document discusses hydro-climatic disasters and integrated water resources management (IWRM) in Guyana. It defines disasters and notes that the main sources in Guyana are hydro-meteorological like floods and wind storms, as well as geophysical disasters. IWRM is presented as a systematic process for sustainable development and management of water resources through equitable allocation and efficiency. IWRM and disaster management must be linked to reduce vulnerabilities and negative impacts from hydro-climatic disasters through awareness, early warning systems, and catchment-level implementation of IWRM. Preparing for disasters is more cost-effective than post-disaster recovery.

This document discusses redefining Africa's agrarian development policies in the face of climate change. It outlines that agricultural productivity in Africa has not kept pace with population growth, with cereal yields stagnating. Climate change impacts agro-ecosystems through changes to the environment and socioeconomics. The challenges include strengthening rural development and governance, improving productivity, and managing natural resources sustainably. Integrated actions are needed across economic growth, sustainable environments, and social equity to help rural communities weather the effects of climate change.
Economics_of_Climate_Change_DanielTU_UNCTAD_.ppt
This document discusses the economics of climate change. It notes that climate change is a unique externality as greenhouse gas emissions impose costs globally over long periods of time on future generations who cannot represent their own interests. The basic policy approaches for reducing emissions include taxing emitters, emissions trading, regulation, and incentives. Delaying emissions reductions will significantly constrain opportunities to stabilize the climate at lower levels and increase mitigation costs.

Climate change and the risk of violent conflict in the Middle East
-Rising Temperatures, Rising Tensions-
Climate change and the risk of violent conflict in the Middle East by Oli Brown and Alec Crawford
This report was written by the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD), an independent environment and development policy research institute, headquartered in Canada with offices in New York and Geneva. IISD has been researching various aspects of climate change and environmental security for the past 15 years.1 IISD is not a campaigning organization, nor does it have political links in the region.
The study involved two research trips (October 2008 and January–February 2009) augmented by deskbased research. IISD’s neutral position enabled the authors to hold consultations and conduct interviews on several sides of the region’s many political divides; a total of eight informal and frank consultations and dozens of interviews were held in Amman, Beirut, Damascus, Jerusalem, Ramallah and Tel Aviv. More than 100 experts, academics, donor representatives, environmental activists and political figures participated.
The project was funded by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. However, this report should in no way be
seen as a reflection of the position of the government of Denmark, the participants in the consultations or
the reviewers. All errors of commission or omission are the responsibility of the authors who welcome
comments and feedback (obrown@iisd.org; acrawford@iisd.org).

Climate change is already affecting Ghana's economic development and poses challenges to achieving development goals. It acts as a "stress-multiplier" exacerbating existing vulnerabilities. Both adaptation and mitigation efforts are needed, requiring leadership across sectors to build climate resilience. Climate change impacts different regions and populations in Ghana in varying ways, increasing risks for the most vulnerable groups. Responses are needed at national, sectoral, and local levels to safeguard development gains and pursue low-carbon growth opportunities in the face of a changing climate.

Climate Change: Third World vulnerability, First World accountability
The document discusses climate change vulnerability in Asia and the Pacific and issues of accountability. It argues that while developing countries in the region are geographically and climatically vulnerable to climate impacts, their vulnerability has been exacerbated by globalization and the activities of transnational corporations from industrialized nations. These corporations contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and promote unsustainable patterns of production and consumption. Weak governance and the effects of imperialist globalization in developing countries have also reduced their ability to adapt to climate change impacts. The document calls for addressing the root causes of climate change and vulnerability beyond business-as-usual solutions within the current global economic system.

Part of a series of lectures by Duncan Green, Head of Research at Oxfam GB on key issues raised in his book From Poverty to Power.
Impacts of Climate Change
The document discusses the impacts of climate change in Africa and strategies for mitigation and adaptation. It finds that:
- Climate change will significantly impact water resources, agriculture, coastlines, and human health in Africa through increased drought, flooding, sea level rise, and disease spread. This poses major risks and challenges.
- Africa has a very low adaptive capacity due to factors like poverty, lack of technology, education, and infrastructure. Current coping strategies will not be enough to adapt to the scale of future climate impacts.
- Concerted action is needed both to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and help Africa adapt to the severe consequences of climate change through projects, policies, and financial mechanisms. International cooperation will be essential

Session 6.4 es as a vehicle for synergies btwn climate change mitigation & ad...World Agroforestry (ICRAF)
This document discusses how environmental services can promote synergies between climate change mitigation and adaptation. It argues that mitigation and adaptation efforts are interdependent, especially in land-use sectors. Failure in adaptation undermines mitigation efforts, and poor mitigation leads to more expensive adaptation needs. It highlights key ecosystem services like pollination, nutrient cycling, and hydrological functions that support both mitigation and adaptation. The document concludes that targeting ecosystem restoration and management to improve these services could enhance opportunities for synergies in land use sectors, and multifunctional landscape strategies provide the right direction.Similar to Climate change in Africa (20)
