Forestry and Flooding in the Annecy Petit Lac Catchment, Haute-Savoie 1730-2000
Environment and History 8(2002): 403-428 Upland environments are particularly vulnerable to the stresses of climate change. The strength and persistence of such forces are not easy to measure and hence ... , but there appears to be no obvious or simple causal link between forest cover change, climate anomalies and flooding.

The Regional Impacts of Climate Change
GCMs but operate at a much finer spatial resolution-typically 50 km-over limited domains. Little climate change work using RCMs nested within GCMs has been completed as yet for Africa (Ringius et ... errors calculated for both types of models (Joubert and Tyson, 1996). Observed sea-level pressure anomalies of the same magnitude as simulated changes are known to accompany major large-scale circulation ...

Global Climate Change: Research Explorer - Atmosphere
Global Climate Change: Research Explorer - Atmosphere Global Average Near-Surface TemperaturesMonthly Anomalies (19612002) Measuring climate change is more difficult than simply taking measurements of weather phenomena at one time and place. Climate refers to overall, long-term weather patterns, so understanding climate change involves combining many different measurements. For example, climate ...
