t this time in the earth’s history, scientists and others are very concerned about climate change. What is the best explanation for the earth’s changing climate?

natural cycles that have occurred over and over during the earth’s history

an interglacial period in the current ice age accounts for rising temperatures and melting glaciers

increasing global temperatures caused by carbon dioxide to be released into the biosphere

as always in the earth’s history, many factors that are not completely understood are interacting to create climate

Convincing Others that Climate Change is Real Climate change remains a somewhat controversial topic in the media and in politics, while nearly every climate scientist is in agreement about what is happening right now. If there is so much data, why are there still so many critics of climate change? Search the internet for one argument that either climate change is not happening at all, or that humans are not largely responsible for what is happening. Choose an argument that...

Scientists and conservationists are concerned that, due to new and growing threats, particularly associated with climate change, many species may soon be unable to persist in the habitats in which they currently occur. This has caused some to argue in favor of "assisted migration", whereby individuals of a species are moved from their native habitat into a new location that is highly suitable for them, but in which they had not previously been present. For example, the white lemuroid ringtail...

To try to determine whether the composition of the earth’s atmosphere has changed over time, scientists can examine the gas in bubbles trapped inside ancient amber.  (That’s the plot of Jurassic Park.) Assume that the following 9 measures are a random sample from the late Cretaceous era (75 to 95 million years ago). The data represent the percent of nitrogen in each sample. 63.4     65.0     64.4     63.3     54.8     64.5     60.8     49.1     51.0 You asked to conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the mean is less than 61. 1....

Lu Xun wrote to inspire change during a very difficult time in China’s history. “A Madman’s Diary” is full of thematic elements and symbolism that would speak directly to the people affected by the Chinese Revolution of 1911, but what can we learn from this piece? What does Lu Xun have to say to us in our society, today? Take some time to consider the “madman” in the story and his definition of “cannibalism.” Then, analyze these themes in relation...
