The poleward expansion of the tropics will have far-reaching impacts, notably in intensifying water scarcity in the Mediterranean and the US "Sun belt" as well as southern Africa and southern Australia, it warns. The paper, appearing in a new journal, Nature Geoscience, is an overview of the latest published research into atmospheric systems at the tropics. [link to skywatch-media.com] |

Anything that kills all humans will have killed off almost all other life first. We may be living off roast cockroach with blue-green algae for dessert, but humans will still be here. Rarrgh! |
