- The Early Twentieth-Century Warming in the Arctic�A Possible Mechanism. Bengtsson, Lennart; Semenov, Vladimir A.; Johannessen, Ola M. // Journal of Climate;Oct2004, Vol. 17 Issue 20, p4045
The huge warming of the Arctic that started in the early 1920s and lasted for almost two decades is one of the most spectacular climate events of the twentieth century. During the peak period 1930�40, the annually averaged temperature anomaly for the area 60��90�N amounted to some...

Articulates the humorous assertion that scientists working in climatology have spent far too much time in front of a computer and not nearly enough time in an easy chair watching television. Contention that if these experts tuned in, they would realize that the cause of global warming is a...
- Benefits of Global Warming. Singer, S. Fred // Society;Mar/Apr92, Vol. 29 Issue 3, p33
This article explores the potential benefits of global warming. One should perhaps recall that only a decade ago, when climate cooling was a looming issue, a U.S. government study calculated a huge national cost associated with such cooling. More to the point perhaps, actual climate cooling,...

Emphasizes the abundance of scientific evidence on the reality of global warming. Data gathered by scientists which confirm global warming; Observable climactic and environmental changes which confirm global warming; Predictions of scientists on the impact of global warming on the environment...
- The parable of The boiled frog. McGuinness, Wendy // Chartered Accountants Journal;May2006, Vol. 85 Issue 4, p71
The article discusses global climate change policy and science. The author quotes the "parable of the boiled frog," which was told during Victoria University of Wellington's Climate Change and Governance Conference in March 2006. In this story, a frog is placed into a boiling pot and it...
- The 100 000-Yr Cycle in Tropical SST, Greenhouse Forcing, and Climate Sensitivity. Lea, David W. // Journal of Climate;Jun2004, Vol. 17 Issue 11, p2170
The key scientific uncertainty in the global warming debate is the equilibrium climate sensitivity. Coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation models predict a wide range of equilibrium climate sensitivities, with a consequently large spread of societal implications. Comparison of models with...
- GLOBAL WARMING. // Buildings;Aug2007, Vol. 101 Issue 8, p32
The article deals with the effects of global warming. These include rise of sea level, erosion of beaches, increase in flooding along the coast and transformation of precipitation patterns. These effects can be felt in the near future if total greenhouse-gas emissions will not be decreased by 50...
