It's difficult to say for certain that a particular extreme event for the monsoon is attributable to anthropogenic climate change — like the Pakistan floods of 2010 — but we do know that with a warming climate more moisture can be held in the atmosphere, leading to heavier rainfall when it does occur.

Drought is expected to occur 20 - 40 percent more often in most of Australia over the coming decades.6, 18 If our heat - trapping emissions continue to rise at high rates, 19 more severe droughts are projected for eastern Australia in the first half of this century.6, 17 And droughts may occur up to 40 percent more often in southeast Australia by 2070.2 Unless we act now to curb global warming emissions, most regions of the country are expected to suffer exceptionally low soil moisture at almost double the frequency that they do now.3 Studies suggest that climate change is helping to weaken the trade winds over the Pacific Ocean, with the potential to change rainfall patterns in the region, including Australia.20, 21,16,22

The moisture component is where climate change comes in — warmer air can hold more water vapor.»

This strategy is advantageous in warm - humid climates to minimize moisture entry into the building structure from outdoors.

Proponents of human - caused global warming might claim that climate models predict increased snowfall in the Antarctic, because more warmth draws more moisture into the air that snows out.

(As the climate warms overall, the atmosphere can hold more moisture, which can lead to more precipitation — falling as snow in places like Siberia that remain relatively cold.)

Anthropogenic climate change contributes to fanning of the West African monsoon by moisture from the Mediterranean July 13, 2016 Climate change can have mixed consequences: It would appear that the warming of the Mediterranean region, which has brought greater heat and drought to the countries there for around 20 years, is behind an increase in rainfall in the Sahel climate change contributes to fanning of the West African monsoon by moisture from the Mediterranean July 13, 2016 Climate change can have mixed consequences: It would appear that the warming of the Mediterranean region, which has brought greater heat and drought to the countries there for around 20 years, is behind an increase in rainfall in the Sahel Climate change can have mixed consequences: It would appear that the warming of the Mediterranean region, which has brought greater heat and drought to the countries there for around 20 years, is behind an increase in rainfall in the Sahel region.

Heavy snowstorms are not inconsistent with a warming planet... In fact, as the Earth gets warmer and more moisture gets absorbed into the atmosphere, we are steadily loading the dice in favor of more extreme storms in all seasons, capable of causing greater impacts on society... If the climate continues to warm, we should expect an increase in heavy snow events for a few decades, until the climate grows so warm that we pass the point where it's too warm for it to snow heavilIn fact, as the Earth gets warmer and more moisture gets absorbed into the atmosphere, we are steadily loading the dice in favor of more extreme storms in all seasons, capable of causing greater impacts on society...

Climate models have long predicted that as global temperatures warm, evaporation of surface water will increase and more moisture will be held in the atmosphere.

This is because claiming that warm, moisture - laden southerly winds have (a) melted the east Antarctic ice sheet (b) caused droughts in Australia, is the framework used by Turney for his climate stuff.

«The warming leads to a simulated long - term reduction in soil moisture which, although of weak magnitude compared to soil moisture deficits induced by naturally occurring droughts in the southwest United States, would imply that drought conditions may be entered more quickly and alleviated more slowly owing to long - term warming... Radiative forcing of the climate system is another source of predictability, although not really a welcome one, and rising greenhouse gases will lead to a steady drying of southwest North America.

As Surfrider has mentioned in several previous blogs, climate change will produce more rain because as the atmosphere warms, it holds more moisture which will lead to increased precipitation.

«Take unusually warm Atlantic ocean surface temperatures (temperatures are in the 70s off the coast of Virginia), add a cold Arctic outbreak (something we'll continue to get even as global warming proceeds), mix them together and you get huge amounts of energy and moisture, and monster snowfalls, like we're about to see here,» said Michael Mann, a climate researcher who directs Penn State University's earth systems science center.

Global warming is making wet places wetter and dry places drier, and creating moisture - laden air that fuels hurricanes and snowstorms, making them much worse than they otherwise would be in a climate unchanged by human behaviors.

Thickening ice in Antarctica has been predicted by climate scientists for a long time, as a consequence of the greater moisture - carrying capacity of warmer air, so evidence for a thickening ice sheet would actually support, not negate, other evidence for global warming.

In warmer climates one might use an enthalpy wheel, which transfers moisture as well as heat.

-- First we increase the greenhouse gases — then that causes warming in the atmosphere and oceans — as the oceans warm up, they evaporate more H2O — more moisture in the air means more precipitation (rain, snow)-- the southern hemisphere is essentially lots of water and a really big ice cube in the middle called Antarctica — land ice is different than sea ice — climate models indicated that more snowfall would cause increases in the frozen H2O — climate models indicated that there would be initial increases in sea ice extent — observations confirm the indications and expectations that precipitation is increasing, calving rates are accelerating and sea ice extent is increasing.

The study, using complex climate modeling software to simulate changes in forest cover and then measuring the impact on global climate, found that northern forests tend to warm the Earth because they absorb a lot of sunlight without losing much moisture.
