Convection, definition of
- Convection
Climate change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather over periods of time
that range from decades to millions of years. It can be a change in the
average weather or a change in the distribution of weather events
around an average (for example, greater or fewer extreme weather
events). Climate change may be limited to a specific region, or may occur across the whole Earth.
In recent usage, especially in the context of environmental policy, climate change usually refers to changes in modern climate. It may be qualified as anthropogenic climate change, more generally known as global warming.
