How will future climates be different from today's world--and what consequences will changes in climate have for societies and their development strategies? It is accessible for readers with little to no background in science, with an emphasis on the needs of those studying sustainable development.John C. This book is a primer on the essential science for grasping the workings of climate change and climate prediction.
He recounts the evolution of climatology from the earliest discoveries about Earth's climate to present-day predictive capabilities, and clearly presents the scientific basis of fundamental topics such as climate zones, ocean-atmosphere dynamics, and the long-term cycles from glacial to interglacial periods. Mutter gives a just-the-facts overview of how the climate system functions and what we know about why changes occur. Mutter also details the mechanisms of climate
