(For more information see climate: Climatic classification: World distribution of major climatic types: Highland climates.) Altitude affects climate because atmospheric temperature drops with increasing altitude by about 0.5 to 0.6 °C (0.9 to 1.1 °F) per 100 metres (328 feet).
Although estimates of local epigean climate could have provided information on climatic conditions directly experienced by P. reddelli, such data were unavailable for present climate or for climate modelled for the LGM.
This paper presents a methodology for the selection of target LEED credits based on project information and climatic factors.
They are assessed by successively refining the spatial information of climatic inputs and model parameters, going from the lumped to the sub-catchment or mesh scale.
Because glaciers must originate above the snowline, a survey of the elevations of ancient cirques provides information on climatic change and on the former position of the snow line.
Furthermore, the style and distribution of knickpoints in transient landscapes encodes additional information about climatic and tectonic histories and allows for further discrimination among river incision models that produce similar steady-state forms.

We consider this the most parsimonious solution explaining the decrease in fossil shell size, and hypothesise that the sizes of N. kraussianus fossil shells can thus provide information on climatic conditions prevalent at the time during which they were deposited.
Others collect information on climatic, viral and other variables but do not use them for outbreak alert.
