Deforestation, as well as the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity (which releases carbon dioxide (CO2)), are both causing global warming, dangerous and long-term changes in our climate.

Which events may cause longterm changes in climate?
Deforestation, as well as the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity (which releases carbon dioxide (CO2)), are both causing global warming, dangerous and long-term changes in our climate.
What causes long term change in climate?
In the longest term changes in climate are caused by changes in the sun's output. Over shorter terms there are many different causes.
Which factor can influence continual change in an ecosystem. Further disturbances or long-term climate changes or introduction of nonavtie species?
Yes, they all can influence continual change in an ecosystem. Any of these could cause an ecosystem to spiral out of control, or could cause it to settle into a new ecosystem depending on the specifics.
What refers to the average of all weather conditions of an area over a long period of time?
No, that is climate, weather refers only to short term events such as cloud cover, rainfall, snowfall or lightning.
How does climate affect tornadoes?
How often tornadoes occur in different regions is a function of climate. Tornadoes are weather events and climate is the long-term behavior of the weather. In simple terms, tornadoes occur in areas whose climates support the formation of strong thunderstorms and wind shear.

What are long-term change in climate?
Are changes that span long periods of time exceeding a few years. Climate changes that occur in less than a decade may be considered short-term changes.
What best explains the difference between climate and weather?
Whether changes about every minute while climate changes over a long period of time
What does a climatologist do?
A climatologist examines the changes in the climate and endeavor to predict long term forecasts. Climatologists are unlike meteorologists who study climate changes in the short term.

What caused the economy in Western Europe to sink into a long depression?
Drastic climate changes
Which of these factors does not affect the climate in a given area?
Individual weather events, such as a storm, a cold winter or a hot summer do not effect climate in a given area. Climate is the statistics of weather, typically over a period of at least 30 years. Climate change is long term trends in climate and it is possible for short term changes to go in the opposite direction of the long term trend.
Does climate change less or more frequently?
climate changes occur over long periods of time. Just like global warming.
Are climate and weather short term changes in earths greenhouse effect?
Weather is a short term change to the climate, but not to the greenhouse effect. Climate is a long term change to the weather (but not to the greenhouse effect).
According to Jared Diamond why did Eurasias long east west axis facilitate the spread of agriculture?
Climate changes
Describe cyclical climate change?
The seasons occur regularly, every year, because of the tilt of Earth's axis of revolution. The wobble of this axis and the "extra" time it takes Earth to circle the sun each year cause climate changes on a very long time scale - tens of thousands of years.
