AAAS Atlas of Population and Environment
http://atlas.aaas.org/ AAAS Atlas of Population and Environment In origin, atlases contained both maps and expository text. It is on this tradition that we have tried to build, providing maps and graphics that quantify and illustrate many of the issues, and text that lays out the broader links between population dynamics and the environment and places them within their historical perspective. This is followed by a series of analyses of individual topics -- both ecosystems and human activities such as migration or trade -- that bring together what is known about the ways in which people impact the Earth's environment. Lastly the atlas contains six case studies that look at population-environment relationships in selected areas. |

Weather
http://www.learner.org/exhibits/weather/ Witness the weather extremes caused by El Niņo in 1997 and 1998. El Niņo raised water temperatures in the Pacific and the effects were felt worldwide: crop failures, disease outbreaks, excess snow, or too little rain. Weather may change on a daily basis, but climate changes over geologic time. The history of the planet is marked by cold periods and warm periods that are surprisingly regular. |
