Local climate patterns in a cooler world may involve more rainfall
What will be an ideal response?
Local climate patterns are very hard to predict, whether the world is warmer or
cooler. If Earth warms, some regions will see increased rainfall; if Earth cools, different
regions will see increased rainfall. (Also see Problem 16-23.)
