Rainfall patterns distorted by human activity
2007-07-23 23:05:00 I just searched "climate change" on google news and found out about a new study that shows that rainfall patterns are being altered by the climate change we have unleashed.From the news flow:A STUDY has yielded the first confirmation that global warming is already affecting the world's rainfall patterns, bringing more precipitation to northern Europe, Canada and northern Russia but less to sub-Saharan Africa, southern India and Southeast Asia.The new study, which is the result of the cooperation between several British climate-research institutes, is providing proof that the recent floods in the UK are the consequence of shifts in the jetstream, the high-level airflow that brings depressions eastwards across the Atlantic.
