A Pleasant Atmosphere, Part 1
Posted on February 22, 2012 | No CommentsBy Luisa Cristini, PhD, University of Hawaii at Manoa [Note from the editor: This will be the first in a series of blog entries that will focus on introductory topics in climate dynamics and modeling, and will be a great insight into the current understanding... -
Google’s Role in Public Hurricane Preparedness
Posted on February 17, 2012 | No CommentsA recent study by researchers at Mississippi State University and the University of Alabama sought to identify the behavior of the general public in advance of landfalling hurricanes by examining Google search data. Using publically accessible data from Google Trends, Google Insights, and Google Hot... -
Official Word on Climate Change
Posted on February 11, 2012 | No CommentsWe at IEDRO want to provide the latest scientific findings regarding the planet and our climate. We will do a series that discuss findings that have been found regarding the climate change on a global basis and of man’s activities on these changes. The U.S.... -
Breakthrough in Scrubbing Carbon Dioxide from the Air
Posted on February 9, 2012 | 1 CommentBy Pennell Paugh CO2 scrubbers have been developed but so far, all have been prohibitively expensive. The Journal of the American Chemical Society reports that researchers at the University of Southern California’s Loker Hydrocarbon Research Institute have developed an extraction method that has achieved some... -
Planning Energy in Times of Climate Change
Posted on February 5, 2012 | 2 CommentsLuisa Cristini, PhD., University of Hawaii at Manoa Energy systems are vulnerable to climate change. Assessing the various scenarios that could occur is a great challenge, due to the number of climate variables and the interconnection between the various energy sectors. A review of the... -
‘Loading the Climate Dice’: Why It Is Important
Posted on February 1, 2012 | No CommentsBy Tom Gray [UPDATED 6/23, 9:30 a.m.] Twenty years ago today, James E. Hansen testified before the Senate Energy Committee — in a room kept intentionally warm by committee staff — that the atmospheric buildup of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases from burning fossil... -
Using Climate Models to Predict Mosquitoes
Posted on January 28, 2012 | No Commentsby Gavin Roy West Nile Virus, a known disease threat to humans, was first observed to be carried by mosquitoes in the Midwestern United States in 1999. Since then, state and local governments have enacted mosquito abatement plans that involve large-scale spraying to stem the... -
The Medieval Climate Anomaly
Posted on January 21, 2012 | No CommentsBy Gavin Roy Since the Industrial Revolution in the 18th and 19th centuries, carbon dioxide in the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels has increased from 280ppm (parts per million) to 390ppm across the globe. This has led to a net warming in the... -
Worms Can Help Farmers Adapt to Climate Change
Posted on January 18, 2012 | No Commentsby Pennell Paugh A study performed by the Game and Wildlife Conservation Society concluded that worms can play a key role to help farmers adapt to extreme weather. Worms improve soil structure, reduce water use in the garden, act as natural fertilizers, reduce greenhouse gases... -
The Past Is Key to the Future
Posted on January 14, 2012 | 1 Commentby Luisa Cristini, PhD., University of Hawaii at Manoa The study of past climate, or paleoclimatology, is one of the most important fields of climate science study. The study of the past, using all time scales, is the basis for climate projections. The past is...
