Targeted analyses of climate trends for specific months and seasons can be especially useful for evaluating the effects of climate change on specific ecological processes and ecosystem services.
The study of climate trends taking into consideration possible structural changes is important for understanding climate development characterized by a stochastic trend or by a determined one.
The climate conditions of the MWP are often compared to those of the late 20th and early 21st centuries in arguments over the causes and potential effects of modern climate trends.
Based on the monthly data of river runoff and major ion contents of the mainstream of the Yellow River during the period of 1956 2009, the effects of climate change on the trends of water quantity and major ion contents have been analyzed.
In detail, based on the monthly data of river runoff and major ion concentrations of the mainstream of the Yellow River during the period of 1956 2009, the effects of climate change on the trends of water quantity and major ion concentrations have been analyzed.
Urban, D. W., Sheffield, J. & Lobell, D. B. Historical effects of CO2 and climate trends on global crop water demand.
However, these tend to analyse global situation focussing on the situation in developing countries, and main trends like effects of climate change.
Therefore, sequences of fossil floras that include a mix of early and later successional communities may not be appropriate to study long-term temporal trends or biotic effects of climate, latitude, or other variables.
To project the effects of climate change independent of effects of population trends, one approach is to assume that the population size and age structure will remain constant.
Swain said the intrusion of wildfires into populated urban areas "used to be really rare historically, but has been happening with alarming frequency recently". Combined with the effects of climate change, that factor is leading the trend toward larger and more destructive fires in California, he said.
