RSSWEST LAFAYETTE, Ind.- Researchers say regional surface temperatures can be affected by land use, suggesting that local and regional strategies, such as creating green spaces and buffer zones in and around urban areas, could be a tool in addressing climate change. A study by researchers from Purdue University and the universities of Colorado and Maryland [...]
Roger Pielke Sr has featured an interesting article from ‘Florida Trend’ magazine on his climate science weblog entitled: ‘It’s Hot But Don’t Blame Global Warming’ Some Florida cities are getting hotter, but the evolution has more to do with bulldozers and pavement than global warming. The article features Florida State University emeritus professor Morton D. [...]
Another paper has been published which demonstrates how land use change can have a bigger effect on climate locally than the claimed influence of increased greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere. The paper is: Campra, P., M. Garcia, Y. Canton, and A. Palacios-Orueta, 2008: Surface temperature cooling trends and negative radiative forcing due to land use [...]
