Tieteen päivät 2015: Santtu Mikkonen - Ilmaston lämpeneminen Suomessa ja muua...UEFviestinta
Maapallon ilmasto lämpenee mutta miten se vaikuttaa meihin? Jotkut ennustajat povaavat Suomeen viiniviljelmiä ja toiset uutta jääkautta. Miltä Suomen ilmasto näyttää viimeisimpien tutkimusten valossa?
Suomen keskilämpötila on noussut viimeisten 166 vuoden aikana yli kaksi astetta. Keskimääräinen nousu tarkasteluajanjaksolla oli 0,14 astetta vuosikymmenessä, mikä on lähes kaksinkertainen maapallon keskiarvoon verrattuna. Erityisen nopeaa lämpötilan kohoaminen on ollut viimeisten 40 vuoden aikana, jolloin lämpötila on noussut yli 0,2 astetta vuosikymmenessä. Miksi siis kärsimme kylmimmästä kesästä miesmuistiin? Syitä tähän on kaksi: Ensinnäkin, vaikka keskilämpötila nousee, vaikuttaa hetkelliseen säähän aina sattuma. Suomen sijainti Atlantin valtameren ja Euraasian manneralueen välissä aiheuttaa säätiloihin suurta vaihtelevuutta. Toisekseen, havaittu lämpötilan nousu on ollut voimakkainta marras-, joulu- ja tammikuussa. Myös kevätkuukausina eli maalis-, huhti- ja toukokuussa lämpötilan nousu on ollut vuosittaista keskiarvoa nopeampaa kun taas kesäkuukausina lämpötilan nousu on ollut vähäisempää.
Ilmaston lämpeneminen on jo vaikuttanut Suomen luontoon: järvien on havaittu jäätyvän myöhemmin ja jäiden lähtevän aiemmin keväällä. Vaikka lämpötilan nousu varsinaisina kasvukuukausina on ollut vähäistä, puiden lehtien puhkeaminen ja kukkiminen on havaintojen mukaan aikaistunut. Tulevaisuudessa ilmastonmuutoksen ennustetaan lisäävän sateisuutta ja hallitsemattomasti edetessään ilmastonmuutos voi tuoda mukanaan jyrkkiä, vielä vaikeasti ennakoitavia muutoksia esim. merivirtoihin, mannerjäätiköihin ja ekosysteemeihin.
The document provides information about India's climate and monsoon system. It discusses several key points:
1) India's climate is dominated by the monsoon system which brings seasonal reversal of winds and heavy rainfall from June to September.
2) Major factors influencing India's climate include latitude, altitude, pressure systems and winds, distance from the sea, and ocean currents.
3) The monsoon is caused by differential heating of land and sea which creates low pressure over India and high pressure over the oceans, drawing in the moisture-laden southwest winds during summer.
4) India experiences distinct seasonal patterns with a hot summer season, rainy monsoon season, and cooler winter season with some regional variations.
Tieteen päivät 2015: Anton Laakso - Ilmastoa voi muokata - miten ja miksi?UEFviestinta
Maapallon hiilidioksidipäästöjä ei ole lukuisista yrityksistä huolimatta saatu vähennettyä ja ilmasto lämpenee edelleen uhkaavasti. Jos lämpenemistä ei saada pysäytettyä, on mahdollista, että ihmiskunnan on turvauduttava keinotekoisiin menetelmiin ilmaston viilentämiseksi. Nämä menetelmät voisivat perustua mm. suuriin tulivuorenpurkauksiin. Purkauksen seurauksena yläilmakehään vapautuneet pienhiukkaset heijastavat auringonvaloa tehokkaasti takaisin avaruuteen ja ilmasto viilenee väliaikaisesti. Heijastavia hiukkasia voitaisiin kuljettaa yläilmakehään myös keinotekoisesti ja siten hidastaa ilmaston lämpenemistä. Maapallon heijastavuutta voitaisiin kasvattaa myös pilviä valkaisemalla tai päällystämällä maanpintaa heijastavalla materiaalilla.
Näihin menetelmiin sisältyy kuitenkin suuria riskejä ja epävarmuuksia. Ne voisivat parantaa olosuhteita tietyissä osissa maapalloa, kun taas toisaalla ne voisivat aiheuttaa esimerkiksi kuivuutta. Niiden käytön seuraukset voisivat olla myös yllättäviä ja vaarallisia. Lisäksi menetelmiin liittyy monia laillisia ja yhteiskunnallisia haasteita. Parhaimmillaan menetelmät voisivat toimia keinona saada lisäaikaa päästöjen vähentämiseen, mutta ne eivät ole vaihtoehto päästövähennyksille.
The document discusses performance analysis of property appraisals using ratio studies. It outlines standards for acceptable levels of appraisal and uniformity according to the International Association of Assessing Officers.
