Global Climate

Global surface temperature has increased by 0.2℃per decade in the past 30 years,similar to the warming rate predicted in the 1980s in initial global climate model simulations with transient greenhouse gas changes.Warming is larger in the Western Equatorial Pacific than in the Eastern Equatorial Pacific over the past century previous research on the economic impacts of a climate-induced sea level rise has been based on the gradual erosion of the shoreline。
