Then I moved to the University of Bern in Switzerland where I measured and analysed a variety of meteorites for five years until 2017. Bombarded by cosmic radiation, they usually contain noble gases such as helium and neon. Why did you move to China? What else can we discover about meteorites? What types of samples have you received?

The key aspects were the inclusion of water vapour feedback as temperatures increased, and the use of ‘convective adjustment’ to maintain stability of the lower atmospheric column. The basic issue stems from the different timescales of the ocean and atmosphere. But let’s go back to the beginning.

Global warming is causing there to be more cloud cover over land areas because a warmer atmosphere can essentially hold more moisture. At night, clouds absorb and re-emit heat that radiates out from Earth, which has a warming effect on temperatures. Across the United States, average minimum and maximum temperatures are 1.4°F

Crop damage radiates inward gradually from the edges of a field, where the salt hits first. In Maryland’s Somerset County, an area facing both high rates of sea level rise and land subsidence, 2 percent of farmland was lost to salt between 2009 and 2017 , totaling over 1400 acres. .

Between 2017 and 2023 there were over 1500 injuries and seven deaths in 153 refineries across the US. Because of the complexity of atmospheric chemistry, there may be unexpected links between global warming and local pollution, so policies must address both kinds of pollution keeping in mind the latest science on how they are connected.
