A glaciologist or a polar scientist would study icebergs. These scientists typically analyze the formation, movement, and impact of icebergs on the environment and climate. Their research can provide insights into climate change and sea level rise.
An independent study of all the scientists who published literature on climate change was made by William Anderegg in 2010. It found that between 97% and 98% of these scientists agreed with the statement that global warming is being caused by human activity.A survey by Doran in 2009 of 3146 earth scientists found that 97.4% of those who had published on climate change agreed.Scientists need to back up their experiments by publishing the data so that other scientists can check. A survey (by Oreskes in 2004) of all the peer-reviewed abstracts published between 1993 and 2003 found that none of them rejected the consensus (that man is causing global warming).
Scientists believe that climate is changing primarily due to human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, which release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat, leading to a warming effect known as global warming. Additionally, scientists observe changes in temperature, sea level rise, and extreme weather events as evidence of climate change.
Atmospheric Scientists study weather, ozone, climate change and pollution of the atmosphere.Climatologists study climates.Meteorologists study the atmosphere and weather.Operational Meteorologists forecast the weather.Physical Meteorologists study the properties of the atmosphere, the transmission of light, sound and radio waves, and the factors that affect the formation of weather.Synoptic Meteorologists develop new tools for forecasting weather.Meteorologists study the weather.
Some scientists think the human race has a 50:50 chance of surviving beyond 2100 if climate change continues.
