Climate Change - Science topic

Published in March 2023, the new report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of UN scientists summarises the previous 6 IPCC reports produced and published between 2018 and 2022. These reports have involved a huge amount of scientific work, many thousands of scientific papers have been examined. Thousands of scientific reviews were produced, in which around 100,000 different aspects, comments etc. were included and reviewed. The analysis shows, among other things, that more than 99 per cent of the scientific papers support the thesis that human civilisation has led to a significant and accelerating increase in greenhouse gas emissions since the beginning of the first industrial revolution, which has become a key factor in the increasingly rapid process of global warming. Studies and estimates show that 2.5 trillion tonnes of CO2 have been released into the atmosphere since the mid-19th century, with half of this amount entering the atmosphere in the last three decades. It has been estimated that 3.5 billion people are at risk of serious negative impacts from the ongoing global warming process. According to the results of the study, the processes of green transformation of the economy should be significantly accelerated, including the rate of decarbonisation of economic processes. without this acceleration, the strategic goal of global climate policy established during the Paris Agreement in 2015, which is to limit the scale of the increase in the temperature of the planet's atmosphere to max. 1.5 degrees C since the beginning of the first industrial revolution, i.e. since the 17th century. In order for this goal to be realistically achievable, it is necessary to significantly accelerate the implementation of the green transformation of the economy, so as to halve CO2 emissions by 2030 at the latest and achieve total zero-emission of the economy by 2050. Unfortunately, the populist, opportunistic economic policies supported by the dirty combustion energy sector, including pseudo-climatic policies, continue to ignore the results of scientific research, including the UN IPCC reports on the role of man as regards the sources of the increasingly rapid process of global warming.

In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:

Can I find someone who has information about the " 2nd Global Summit on Earth Science and Climate Change "(Adv. ESCC 2023)" conference ? Is it a real international conference? Has anyone ever participated in the first edition?

Scarcity is on the horizon. Where are the major conflicts between food and alcoholic beverages in conjunction with receding agricultural crop production?

Some volcanoes can send particles and water to the Mesosphere, as Tonga in 2022. The consequences are much more complicated than imagined

this paper is talking about it

Which beverages have the lowest carbon footprint per alcoholic intensity?

Including carbon leakage and downstream Scope 3.

How does agricultural impact the environment and modern agricultural practices helpful in reducing crop loss due to climate change?

My PhD research is: Future research of food industry businesses in the context of climate change - what model do you suggest for me to implement?

Happy for controversial input on the topic of trade under climate change constraints as carbon markets are heterogenous and local.

What is the effect of climate change on agriculture and solutions and can agricultural systems be adapted to reduce the impact of climate change?

How does innovation solve climate change and strategies of climate action and role of technology innovation in combating climate change?

As entropies diffuse swiftly around the realm of expanding science and shifting circumstances in the plasma of time, new major risk factors appear. Others lost importance.

What may have been described as exogenous in the past, may have altered its properties significantly. Of the risks which can be measured or assessed qualitatively some may now be better identified and (re)classified.

Happy for novel independent and waning risk factors in the different branches of sciences. In nature speculative based on observations, so an informal Menti would be nice. Would be beneficial to sharpen the sensors.

What are the adaptation strategies for climate change in agriculture India and can agricultural systems be adapted to reduce the impact of climate change?

What methods does the agricultural sector use to adapt to climate change and ways to reduce emissions from agriculture?

How are climate change biodiversity and food security interlinked and do emerging technologies provide an opportunity for crop diversification?

my research subject is climate change and asthmatic disease

How can we accurately use pollen data to assess the impacts of climate change on ecosystems and biodiversity?

Research seems to be still ambiguous about the comfort zone of phytoplanktons. Which pH Value and temperature can phytoplanktons not adapt to?

What is the comfort zone for for zoonotic plankton?

How likely is an adaption to new tipping point zones that may function for both planktons?

What is the effect of climate change in agriculture farming and does climate affect agriculture and food supply in India?

CO2 is a key greenhouse gas that is produced in various types of combustion processes of carbon-based organic compounds. In order to reduce the scale of greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere and counteract the progressive process of global warming, it is necessary, among other things, to replace dirty energy based on the combustion of fossil fuels with clean, renewable and emission-free energy. In the process of greening the economy and decarbonising economic processes, it is important to reduce emissions to the atmosphere as quickly as possible, particularly of the highly greenhouse gas methane. Methane is produced in various processes, mainly by civilisation and, to a lesser extent, by natural processes in nature. An important pro-climatic solution would be not to emit CO2 into the atmosphere, but to bind it to a particular rock form or to inject it deep into the earth's crust in rock layers that will absorb and bind it chemically.

The non chemical methods of insect-pest Management is important to ago-ecosystem in strengthening resilience to climate change and agriculture sustainability because synthetic chemical insecticides pollute whole environment and also hazardous to all living thiongs.

Indiscriminate use of synthetic chemical insecticides and climate change create severe problems to beneficial insects and residual problem in food material. To maintain the sustainability in aggro-ecosystem and agriculture sustainability IPM is must.

How climate change affecting farming and food system and what is are climate risks in agriculture?

What is black carbon emissions and what is plastic made of and how is it harmful and causes of plastic pollution and does plastic affect climate change?

How does climate change affect food and water quality and does climate change affect water in agriculture?

What are the effect of pollution, salinity and climate change on the earth and its solution?

How can global climate change affect food security of India and impact of climate change on the future of biodiversity?

Would be interesting to learn more about the ecological impact. Are there any calculations for Scope 3?

Cherish your feedback.

Global warming refers to the rise in global temperatures due mainly to the increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. “Climate change” refers to the increasing changes in the measures of climate over a long period of time – including precipitation, temperature, and wind patterns?

Dear All,

I want to know any available article of statistical method to estimate - Human activities (Anthropogenic), which can accelerate snow melting. Please help to find any suitable method to any published article on this topic.

There are several human activities (GHGs emission, CO2 release, urbanization etc.), which resulted massive snow melting now a days. But to quantify the percentage (%) of share coming from Human activities, which causing SCA change.

Thanks in advance.

What is the importance of sustainable development and relationship between environmental sustainability and climate change?

Weather and climate conditions significantly impact the incidence and geographical distribution of several diseases. Extreme weather events such as heatwaves, floods, and droughts alter disease transmission ecologies and population vulnerability, thereby influencing risk for climate-sensitive disease. For example, increased temperature and rainfall induced by climate change and extreme weather events (such as storms or cyclones) are projected to increase the risk of malaria due to a greater geographical range for the Anopheles mosquito vector, a longer season, and enhanced vector breeding and disease transmission rates. Risk monitoring and mitigation strategies are therefore importance to preserve the health of populations.

Developing integrated surveillance can greatly enhance the capacity of health systems to prepare and adapt to climate-sensitive diseases. Integrated surveillance involves the integration of multiple surveillance systems (e.g. disease surveillance and weather surveillance) to improve the use of information for detecting, investigating and responding to public health threats. This integration of data, therefore, improves the flow of surveillance information throughout the health system.

Importantly, climate-informed surveillance can enhance the preparedness of health systems via early warning systems. Early warning systems aim to anticipate risks and trigger early warning responses to avoid or reduce impact and prepare for effective response. In the context of a rapidly changing environment and risk landscape, early warning systems are a valuable tool for building the adaptive capacity and climate-resilience of health systems.

The field of environmental communication teaches that how we communicate about our environment shapes not only what we think about it, but most importantly, what we do about it. Or as Greta Thunberg is the latest to remind us, what we don’t do about it.

How we frame our communication matters. Framing is positioning messages in ways that draw on audiences’ mental models to favour specific perspectives on an issue.

In different regions of the world, on different continents, more and more negative effects of the progressive process of global warming, of the ongoing climate crisis, etc. are appearing. These include, above all, the natural effects of the loss of biodiversity of natural ecosystems, the effects on water resources of increasingly severe and prolonged droughts, water shortages in certain areas, decreasing rainfall, the drying up of lakes and rivers, the barrenness of soils, the decline in agricultural productivity, etc. In recent years, there has also been an increase in the scale of the emergence of the global crisis. In recent years there has also been an increase in the occurrence of hot weather, increasingly high summer temperatures, the occurrence of forest fires, etc., the drying out of forest litter in forests, a decrease in the humidity of the microclimate in areas of forests, agricultural fields and urban agglomerations. In this way, the living conditions for people in increasingly large areas of land are steadily deteriorating year by year. More and more lakes are drying up. A significant proportion of the large lakes, too, have already reduced their surface area and the water reserves they have accumulated over thousands of years. For example, the surface area of the saline Great Lake in the state of Utah in the USA has decreased significantly over the last few years. This is a result of excessive water consumption (mainly by agriculture) and the ongoing process of global warming. There are many harmful, toxic heavy metal and other compounds on the bottom of this lake. It is a drainless lake, i.e. all waste and toxins settle in the lake. Already half of the lake bottom is above the water surface. The drying up of the lakes results in negative changes in the microclimate around the lake, the barrenness of the soils, the desertification of the surrounding natural environment, the possibility of sandstorms, a decrease in the moisture content of the soils around the lake, a decrease in the productivity of the soils in terms of their use for agricultural purposes. In addition to this, the negative effects of lake desiccation include the negative natural effects of a decrease in the level of biodiversity, both in terms of the lake biosphere and the natural ecosystems functioning in the vicinity of the desiccating lake. In view of the above, it is increasingly important to improve and increase the scale of protection of lakes from drying out and to create solutions to counteract or slow down this unfavourable process. These solutions include prohibiting the extraction of water from a drying-up lake for industrial, agricultural, municipal, etc. purposes. If the drying-up lake is located in a predominantly agricultural area, an important solution may be the creation of new deep wells, rainwater harvesting systems, a change in the agricultural model from unsustainable to sustainable ecological agriculture and, in areas close to the seas and oceans, the development of seawater desalination systems.

As many research stated that the climate change affect the yield of crops in India. There may be the statistics of 1 percent increase in temperature there may be a 10 to 15 percent decrease in yield... But the India's food grain production keep on increasing year by year. how?

Is it true that climate change has not yet affected Indian agriculture production? If not what may be the hypothesis.

What are strategies and solutions that will help us to mitigate climate change and its effects and why is mitigation important in climate change?

Weather forecast has utmost importance in Aviation, Ship routing, safety measures, planning and designing of structures, urban areas, offshore maintenance, natural resources, coastal areas, Agriculture, pollutants management and in many more weather applications in world wide.

Globalisation processes are subject to and influenced by various factors and processes operating over the long term. In recent years, the main determinants of globalisation processes include the growth of transnational corporations, international financial institutions, changes in the scale of economic protectionism applied, changes in international foreign trade strategies, cross-border capital flows financing direct investment and speculative investment in other countries' capital markets, international trade wars, the global financial crisis of 2007-2009, the SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) coronavirus pandemic and the recession of the 2020 economy, the increasing importance of green economic transformation and sustainable economic development, the energy crisis of 2022 and the intensifying negative effects of the progressive climate crisis. It may be that in the future, due to the intensifying negative effects of the progressive global warming process, the developing climate crisis, the importance of international environmental policy and supranational coordination for the implementation of sustainable development goals may be modified by globalisation processes in the years ahead. As a result, the structure of key priorities and factors shaping globalisation processes may change in the future. The importance of environmental, climate and sustainability factors in globalisation processes may increase. If globalisation processes undergo such modifications then international economic sustainability may also grow in importance. The question then arises as to how the processes of economic globalisation should proceed in order for sustainable international economic development to be realised?

Green markets are markets where the environmental cost of pollution is positive and endogenous. Environmentally clean markets are markets where the environmentally cost of pollution is zero and endogenous. Which raises the question, would economic expansions towards environmentally clean markets have taken place had Adam Smith given us the theory of the perfect green market in 1776?

I think Yes, what do you think? Why?

What are the most serious problems of civilization development that should be solved as soon as possible? What are the global problems for which research should be developed and solutions to these problems resolved in 2019 and in subsequent years?

One of such research problems, which should not be postponed for an indefinite future, is the need to develop environment-friendly sustainable economic development in order to slow down the adverse process of global warming.

With the warming of the Earth's climate, the risk of more dramatic climate cataclysms, including tsunamis, increases.

Tsunami may be a derivative of the global warming problem. Global warming generates an increase in climate disasters, including more cases of tsunamis.

But not only is the risk of more violent and more dramatic tsunamis rising. Also in recent years, there has been more other types of climate and natural climate catatics, such as droughts, rainstorms, tornadoes and weather anomalies.

At present, it should no longer be asked whether global warming generates an increase in natural disasters only what rate of growth will be recorded in the future? So many data, research centers confirms the progressing process of global warming, that the problem is unquestionable.

More and more data points to the growing risk of climate change, unfavorable for human and life on the Earth, increase of climate disasters, climatic and weather anomalies, which are the result of global warming, rising average annual temperature near the Earth's surface.

Now we should just ask: How can these adverse processes be counteracted? What ecological technologies, renewable energy sources, how to help natural environments, how to rebuild them, such as afforestation, to build natural ecosystems absorbing greenhouse gases?

How to develop ecological business ventures? How to create financing systems for this type of pro-ecological projects? How to dispel international cooperation in this matter? What actions should be taken to move towards the development of a new ecological green economy?

How to develop environmentally sustainable economic development to slow down the unfavorable warming of the Earth's climate?

Although, mangroves have been acknowledged as effective coastal bio-shields and conservation of the same has been taken up as a collective global agenda[1], a more collaborative and intensive effort should be put in place for conservation of these unique habitats. Similar to the collective efforts at the global level, collective efforts at the local and regional level should be initiated and fostered for conservation and sustainable management of mangrove habitats. In this context a discussion note was prepared to initiate a dialogue with individuals and organizations in India, especially on the eastern Indian coast to initiate the “Eastern Indian Mangrove Alliance for Conservation (EIMAC)”, to collectively identify the issues and opportunities and initiate a collaborative effort for conservation of mangrove habitats, sustainable economic development of the coastal communities and climate change mitigation and adaptation on the eastern Indian coast. The following sections of the discussion note provides an overview of the mangrove habitats of the eastern Indian coast, biodiversity, socio-economic conditions of the artisanal fishermen, and the threats of climate change. It was intended that this discussion note would provide the background and help to open the window for further discussion and initiate collaborative and collective action.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a rapidly advancing tool. It is heavily reliant on programming languages, data manipulation and analysis. As colleagues in the field of oceanography, I would like to know your opinions on the use of AI in this field. Furthermore, I would appreciate any recommendations for publications that could support your viewpoints.

It is important to be transparent about the limitations in terms of programming for the diferent subfields of oceanography, such as physical, chemical, biological, ecosystemic, and geological; how the incorporation of AI may lead to new disparities in scientific research; and how careful you would be with the use of these tools.

Thanks for your times!

Hi all!

I would like to ask your help.

I am working on the Hydrological modelling using HEC-HMS, with the ERA5-Land dataset for a basin in south of France

In particular, I downloaded the ERA5-Land precipitation data from Copernicus Climate Change Service relative to my basin in Netcdf/Grib format.

My questions are:

- Can I import my subset gridded data in HEC-HMS?

I tried to import the gridded data (File -> Import -> Gridded data) - 4 files in .nc format for a historical flood 1978, the variable is total precipitation - to convert NetCDF files in .dss format. In my case, I created the destination file called “Era5Land.dss”.

At the end of the importing, the file Era5Land.dss is empty, it doesn’t contains the converted data.

(I use HEC-HMS v4.10 )

Thank you!
