Climate Change Briefings from Southern Africa |
| abstract |
Written by 3 scientists with several decades of experience share their insights in the form of 55 'frequently-asked' questions provide an overview of current national and international, the science of climate systems, projected impacts in southern Africa during the 21st century, and what can be done to avert disaster. Front Cover -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Acknowledgements -- Table of Contents -- Foreword -- Acronyms and abbreviations -- Preface -- How do governments assess climate change? -- Sidebar: Climate change sceptics and scientific reasoning -- Section 1: Earth system science:The processes that underlie climate change -- Introduction -- 1. Why is Earth habitable? -- Sidebar: Heat radiation -- 2. How do greenhouse gases regulate Earth's temperature? -- 3. Is water vapour the most important greenhouse gas? -- 4. Why are clouds the wild card in climate change? -- 5. Is climate change just part of a long-term natural cycle? -- Sidebar: Milankovic cycles -- 6. Are climate variations just due to volcanoes or other Earth processes? -- 7. How do El Niño and La Niña events affect South African weather? -- 8. How hot might it get in South Africa this century? -- 9. How might the rainfall in Southern Africa change in the twenty-fi rst century? -- 10. Are extreme weather events related to climate change? -- 11. How do land-use changes and deforestation affect global warming? -- 12. What is South Africa's contribution to global warming? -- 13. What happens to carbon dioxide emissions? -- 14. Can ecosystems keep sucking up carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning? -- 15. Could ocean currents slow down or change direction? -- 16. Is there any chance of runaway global warming? -- Section 2: Consequences of a changing climate for the Southern African environment -- Introduction -- 1. How resilient are ecosystems to climate change? -- 2. How will South Africa's plants respond to climate change? -- 3. Could rising carbon dioxide concentrations boost plant growth? -- 4. Is bush encroachment caused by global change? -- 5. Will South Africa's land animals cope with climate change? -- 6. Are South Africa's birds taking flight? -- 7. Will South Africa run out of water?.
