What causes the increasingly frequent occurrence of extreme weather
According to the meteorologists, the main reason for the prolonged heavy rains in western europe was the high water content of the cloud due to the excessively warm climate and the slow pace of movement, which led to heavy rains in one area. Not so long ago, the western coast of north america experienced a long period of high temperatures, also due to the slow movement of the hot zone. These phenomena are a natural change in atmospheric flows following global warming。
“there is indeed a link between extreme weather (such as extreme storms) and global warming. This is based on a simple physical principle: for each temperature increase of 1°c, the maximum water vapour content that can be accommodated in the air increases by about 7%, so that there is more moisture in the air before precipitation occurs. We may go through a longer rain-free period and then experience more intense precipitation.” ph. D. In earth systems model, university of brussels, belgium, gave a press briefing。
Stefan rahmstorf, professor of marine physics at the university of potsdam, germany, also indicated that the recent high-temperature record of the united states of america was almost impossible without global warming。
“the effects of climate change on the increase in extreme precipitation are not currently observed to be significant, as natural weather changes are more significant than global warming. We cannot therefore say whether extreme rainfall is the result of global warming, but we can say that it is certain that such events become more frequent as a result of global warming.” ramstov told the news。
Since the industrial era, the earth's average temperature has risen by 1. 2 degrees celsius, a trend that continues. Meteorological scientists have been warning that long-term heat, drought and heavy rains will become more frequent。
“the increase in extreme weather conditions can ultimately be attributed to climate change, which exacerbates changes in temperature and precipitation patterns. Because of increasing greenhouse gases and rising atmospheric temperatures, evaporation will be faster, more water will be pumped from the surface of the earth to the air and then weathered, and the water will be transported to the places where it will rain.” the senior data adviser at the beijing representation of the world resources institute and director of the global waterway project explained the story in pairs. “the result is that arid areas may become more arid and humid.”
