Astronomical
theory of climate change The tilt of the earth relative to its plane of
travel about the sun is what causes seasons. The hemisphere "pointing
toward" the sun is in summer, while the opposite hemisphere is in winter |

change global climate change is a change in the long-term weather
patterns that characterize the regions of the world. Weather refers to the
short-term (daily) changes in temperature |

Acoustic
thermometry of ocean climate the basic idea of ATOC is simple. Sound
travels faster in warm water than in cold water. The travel time of a
sound signal from a source near California to a receiver near Alaska, for
example, will decrease if the intervening ocean warms up, and will
increase if the ocean cools down |
