Global Change

Science, Environment, Global Change, Impacts and Indicators - Arctic Climate Impact Assessment. A project of the Arctic Council and the International Arctic Science Committee (IASC), to evaluate and synthesize knowledge of the consequences of variability, change, and increased ultraviolet radiation.

Science, Environment, Global Change, Impacts and Indicators - Global Change and Terrestrial Ecosystems (GCTE) Project. Information from an International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP) core project for research on responses to rising carbon dioxide levels and other perturbations.

The Earth is heating up. The early warning signs of global climate change are in -- heat waves and warmer weather, spreading disease, earlier spring arrival, plant and animal range shifts and population declines, sea level rise and coastal flooding, coral reef bleaching, glaciers melting, Arctic and Antarctic warming, downpours, heavy snowfalls, and flooding, droughts and fires.

Science, Environment, Global Change, Climate Prediction - Japanese Meteorological Research Institute. Provides information on their climate simulations and on their current research.

Science, Environment, Global Change, Climate Prediction - US NCAR Climate and Global Dynamics Division. The National Center for Atmospheric Research's division devoted to climate modelling.

Science, Environment, Global Change, Climate Prediction - Deutsches Klimarechenzentrum. German Climate Research Centre, Hamburg.

Science, Environment, Global Change, Climate Prediction - Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment. Observes and models the hydrologic cycle and energy fluxes in the atmosphere, at the land surface, and in the upper oceans.

Science, Environment, Global Change, Carbon Management - Siberia II - Project Homepage. The multinational study to demonstrate the viability of full carbon accounting on a regional basis using the environmental tools and systems available to us today and in the near future.

Science, Environment, Global Change, Carbon Management - MIT Carbon Sequestration Initiative. Background information and details of research projects.

Greenergy is one of the top three fuel suppliers in the UK, selling more than 130 million litres of petrol, diesel and biofuel every week to oil companies, supermarkets and bus, haulage and industrial companies.

The Coal-Seq project is investigating the feasibility of CO2 sequestration in deep, unmineable coals. Field demonstrations are being performed in the San Juan Basin, supported by laboratory work to study important reservoir mechanisms.

Science, Environment, Global Change, Carbon Cycle - Fluxnet Canada. A Canadian research network, based on eddy covariance flux measurements, that studies the effects of climate and disturbance on carbon cycling processes in forest and peatland ecosystems.
