Stratocumulus clouds play an essential role in keeping temperatures on Earth cooler by shading and reflecting sunlight back to space. They have a very delicate and specific dynamic, which could be disrupted by excessive levels of CO2 in the atmosphere. Scientists are working on potential risk …
A massive brown cloud stretching from the Arabian Peninsula straight across Asia to the Pacific is growing and scientists are ringing the alarm bell concerning its impact on climate and reduced rainfall patterns…
Noctilucent clouds (NLCs) are clouds found in the Mesosphere (50 miles or 82 km) above Earth’s surface. NLCs are for the most part composed of ice crystals and meteor dust, however cloud formations in this atmospheric layer seem to have been effected by CO2 and methane emissions.
The water cycle is the continuous movement of water: above, below and on Earth’s surface.
Rainforests make their own rain, but which can first ….
Above the Amazon Forest flows the mightiest river in the world formed in part by trees releasing approximately 20,000,000,000 tons of water daily and the momentum, which pulls clouds formed over the Atlantic inland and straight across the continent…
An atmospheric river can transport enormous volumes of water even larger than the Mississippi river so scientists have created a method to categorise the strength and scale of *air>emissions/ low emissions>carbon dioxide
Brazil’s water cycle is dependent upon the Amazon Forest, which is also the water engine for the entire continent. To paraphrase the Federal Deputy of Rio de Janeiro, ‘To have water, you need forests. To have agriculture, you need water, but the powerful agricultural sector in Brazil lobbies for deforestation. It therefore lobbies for less rain and with the long term risk of no rain. Go figure…
