Lowering Real Interest Rates Could Slow Global Warming, Craig S. Marxsen
Lowering Real Interest Rates Could Slow Global Warming, Craig S. Marxsen
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel combustion have increased markedly in this century. Increased carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere are thought likely to help produce a warming of global climate. Many strategies to reduce or reverse the anticipated global warming point to reductions of fossil fuel combustion as a primary ingredient. This paper examines the possibility of obtaining a decrease in world petroleum supply as a result of reducing interest rates relative to the rate of inflation.
Drought And Precipitation Fluctuations In The Great Plains During The Late Nineteenth Century, Cary J. Mock
Drought And Precipitation Fluctuations In The Great Plains During The Late Nineteenth Century, Cary J. Mock
Great Plains Research: A Journal of Natural and Social Sciences
Monthly precipitation data in the Great Plains from the late nineteenth century (1851–1890) were compared with modem analogs. Seasonal precipitation changes were identified since 1858–1877, depending on the amount of data available, and additional droughts were inferred back to 1851. Regional droughts did not clearly fit any cycle. Precipitation during fall and winter was less than 1951–1980 averages during most of the late nineteenth century. Wetter than modern average springs and summers occurred in the mid-1870s to the mid-1880s. Relationships of these conditions to changes in mid-tropospheric circulation are suggested. Results from this study can be used for verification of …
