Climate prediction
Climate prediction involves forecasting long-term patterns and trends in Earth's climate, using data from weather observations, satellite measurements, and climate models. Scientists analyze factors like greenhouse gas emissions, ocean currents, and solar activity to understand how these influence global temperatures, precipitation, and weather systems over decades or centuries. While precise short-term weather forecasts are made for days or weeks, climate predictions provide an overview of potential future climate conditions, helping societies plan for challenges like rising sea levels, droughts, and storms. It combines science, computer modeling, and historical data to project possible climate scenarios.
