…glacier melting. The researchers simulated through computer models how the reduction of global warming effected by short-lived pollutant control would affect the rate of thermal expansion of seawater and empirically accounted for the effects of glacier melt. Without mitigative action, global sea-level rise is expected to encroach upon major coastal…

…both in Barcelona, used computer models to simulate air currents and airborne particle transport for all days since 1977 with high numbers of KD cases in Japan, based on data compiled by Dr. Yoshikazu Nakamura and colleagues at Jichi Medical University in Japan. The modeling indicated that KD cases in…
