What is global warming?What is global warming?
“Global warming” refers to increases in global temperatures as a result of an accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Greenhouse gases,
such as CO2 , CH4, N2O, HFCS,…

• Through increased climate variability in the form of more serious and frequent extremes, such as floods and droughts

Land-use change, increasing exposure and damage potential – floodplain development, growing wealth in flood-prone areas
(ii) Changes in terrestrial systems
Land-cover change - urbanization, deforestation, elimination of wetlands and floodplains, river regulation
(iii) Changes in climate and atmospheric system
Holding capacity of the atmosphere, intense precipitation, seasonality, circulation patterns
