This newest threat follows on the heels of overfishing, sediment deposition, nitrate pollution in some areas, coral bleaching caused by global warming, and increasing ocean acidity caused by carbon emissions.

«If this rainfall change was caused simply by a warmer atmosphere holding more moisture, we would have expected an increase in the average rainfall when each system, organised or disorganised, occurs,» said Dr Tan

Surprisingly, cloudy, gray and humid winter days can actually cause the snowpack to warm faster, increasing the likelihood of melt during winter months when the snowpack should be growing, the authors report.

Now, warming seawater intruding underneath has loosened the glaciers» grip on bedrock, speeding their flow toward the sea and causing increasing amounts of ice to break off into the ocean.

The cooling effect of a grand minimum is only a fraction of the warming effect caused by the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

The research has also contributed to answering the important question whether the increase in rainfall observed in the tropics was simply caused by the fact of a warmer atmosphere or whether the underlying circulation in that region had changed.

Multiple high - resolution climate models confirmed that the increasing trend is due mainly to human - caused global warming.

Local pressures, in particular overfishing, destructive fishing, and pollution from nearby land - based human activity, are paramount, but global warming has caused increased bleaching and ocean acidification, which makes it harder for corals to grow, compounding the problems, the World Resources Institute (WRI) and 24 other organizations concluded in «Reefs at Risk Revisited,» an update of a 1998 report.
