- Are world temperatures and precipitation changing? Explain how.
From the chart, we can see since 1961, the world temperatures are increases. Precipitation has the same trend as temperatures, four different countries from different climate zones, but the precipitation increases very fast.
2. What conclusions can you make about how climate change is occurring in different climate zones?
For the Guyana which is in tropical zones, the temperatures decrease from 1901 to 1930, but since 1931 the temperature has a gradual increase. For the precipitation, it is increasing from 1901 to 1930, since 1931, it begins decreasing. However, from 1961, it increasing again.
For Egypt which is in dry zones, the temperatures increase from 1901 to 1930, but since 1931 the temperature starts to decrease. But in 1961 is starts to increase again. For the precipitation, it is decreasing from 1901 to 1930, since 1931, it begins decreasing.
For Portugal which is in mild temperate zones, the temperatures not change from 1901 to 1930, but since 1931 the temperature is decreased. But in 1961, it starts increases again. For the precipitation, it is increasing from 1901 to 1960, since 1961, it is not changed.
For Sewen which is in snow zones, the temperatures increase from 1901 to 1930, but since 1931 the temperature is decreased. But in 1961, it starts increases again. For the precipitation, it is increasing from 1901 to 2016.
