caused by solar activity.
The typology includes logical problems, algorithmic problems, story problems (which have underlying algorithms with a story wrapper that amounts to an algorithmic problem), rule - using problems, decision - making problems (e.g., cost - benefit analysis), troubleshooting (systematically diagnosing a fault and eliminating a problem space), diagnosis - solution problems (characteristic of medical school and involving small groups understanding the problem, researching different possible
causes, generating hypotheses, performing diagnostic tests, and monitoring a treatment to restore a goal state), strategic performance, case analysis (characteristic of law or business school and involving adapting tactics to support an
overall strategy and reflecting on authentic situations), design problems, and dilemmas (such as
global warming, which are complex and involve competing values and which may have no obvious solutions).

caused global warming that meteorologists are more apt to doubt that humans could dangerously disrupt climate than the much smaller community of climatologists studying the
overall climate system and what influences its patterns.
Roy Spencer is the driving force behind the «internal variability» hypothesis, which posits that some unknown and undefined mechanism is
causing cloud cover to change, which, by changing the
overall reflectivity of the Earth, is the driving force behind the current
global warming.
First, there's the number of results

caused between 100 % and 200 % of the observed
global surface
warming over the past 60 years»
Overall, the risk of sea - level rise from
global warming is less at almost any given location than that from other

My point is that if you believe that CO2 is the
cause of
global warming, [er, climate change] AND you believe that the best course for humanity is to raise the
overall standard of living (education, health, income) of anyone left behind then capping CO2 is probably not the best policy.

overall warming)?
Those, that are still clinging to the insanely false «
global warming is a hoax» narrative, are doing great harm to credibility of the
overall anti-geoengineering community, and thus to the
cause itself.
One study, published in today's edition of the journal Nature, found that the
