Facing Climate Change Together

Books Climate Change, climate change science Leave a comment
The vast majority of climate scientists now agree that human-induced climate change is a reality, but there is much ongoing research and debate. Nevertheless, our global society is confronted with the urgent need for a wise response to potential climate change. This volume brings together scientists from the US and Europe to review the state of the art in climate change science. It draws from the most recent assessment reports of the IPCC, but scientific jargon has been minimized for readers from different backgrounds. Each chapter provides a description of a particular aspect of the climate problem, its role in current climate change, its potential future impacts, and its societal importance. This book is written for scientists and students in a wide range of fields, such as atmospheric science, physics, chemistry, biology, geography, geology and socioeconomics, who are seeking a coherent and broad review of climate change issues.

Pourquoi la terre est elle unique en son genre? Cette interrogation revêt aujourd’hui une importance scientifique majeure: notre maison dans l’Univers n’est vraiment pas, en effet, une planète comme les autres, et il est essentiel de comprendre pourquoi et comment la terre a évolué dans le temps, puis est devenue dans le cosmos un havre merveilleux ou la vie s’épanouit.
Le livre fait ressortir a quel point l’existence de la Terre est un véritable miracle.

Mediterranean Land-surface Processes Assessed from Space (Regional Climate Studies).
This book is the result of two workshops held back-to-back in Casablanca at which scientists from all over the Mediterranean area and from Africa reported and compared their results on the analysis and interpretation on climatological data and on empirical process studies. This resulted in a comprehensive presentation on climate variability and climatic trends within the Mediterranean basin and of certain African regions. The interdependencies of the Mediterranean climate and the global climate system are discussed as well as the processes linking the atmosphere, sea, and land masses.
Finally, aprognosis shows how research projects may in the futures interact to fill gaps in our knowledge and merge their results into an intergrative understanding of the complexe “Mediterranean system” and its socio-economical implications.
