So with the co2 forcing function, is it possible that Canada be glaciated again And that the Sahara be green?
That would fly in the face of conventional thinking which is that Canada will be temperate and the Sahara will be more arid.
- kibwen 3y agoThe article is saying that the green Sahara coincides with periods of greater seasonal rainfall and humidity, caused by changes to the procession of the Earth and the effect that has on the seasons. It's possible that current anthropogenic climate change could make the Sahara greener, but it's also possible that it might not. In any case, the greening would probably take hundreds of years or more to happen.
- christkv 3y agoDoes anyone know where one can find the estimated size per year of the Sahara. All I kind find are reductionist crap like it’s 10% bigger now than 1920. But this does not say if it’s in a growing or shrinking trend just that it’s bigger now than then. Was it even bigger in 2000? And now shrinking from a top or has it been a gradual increase?
