Over the 20th century (1900 to 1995), there were relatively small increases in global land areas experiencing severe drought Patient or severe wetness. [ 11IPCCBILAN2001 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

For all countries, increased frequency of severe weather events Patient will enhance the risk of weather-related disasters. [ 6CANADAQFP 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

The Great Plains (including Canadian prairies) and southeastern United States experience more Degree severe weather (e.g., thunderstorms, tornadoes, and hail) Patient than any other region in the world. [ 2IPCCBIODIVERSITE 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

The Amazon is experiencing severe drought Patient , also due to the warm tropical Atlantic. [ AWORLDOFSCIENCE 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

The climatic conditions Patient are more Degree severe in the continental interior regions of northern Asia and North America [ RAPPORTPENTAGONE 0 TK MCLH 08/07/2013 ]

Warmer temperatures will lead to a more vigorous hydrological cycle; this translates into prospects for more severe droughts and/or floods Patient in some places and less severe droughts and/or floods in other places. [ 1IPCCAVIATION 0 TK MCLH 08/07/2013 ]

It is also expected that many regions of the world will experience more frequent, prolonged, or more Degree severe droughts Patient due to more rapid evaporation from plants, soils, lakes, and reservoirs. [ 6CANADAQFP 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

These changes in greenhouse gases and aerosols, taken together, are projected to lead to regional and global changes in temperature, precipitation and other climate variables - resulting in global changes in soil moisture, an increase in global mean sea level, and prospects for more Degree severe extreme high-temperature events, floods and droughts Patient in some places Location . [ 7IPCCREGION 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

These extreme events may simply be the result of natural variations in climate. While floods, heat waves, a severe El Niño Patient , and other extreme events are expected to increase as the world warms, it is difficult to attribute any particular climate or weather event definitively to global warming or any other natural or human cause. [ 6CANADAQFP 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

Projected increases in the frequency of heavy rainfall events and severe flooding Patient also could be accompanied by an increase in the length of dry periods between rainfall events and in the frequency and/or severity of droughts in parts of North America. [ 7IPCCREGION 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

Furthermore, severe winters Patient can cause frost damage even to dormant vegetation, thus restricting the cultivation of over-wintering crops, such as winter wheat, on the Prairies and in other similarly affected areas. [ 5CANADAICC 0 TK 08/08/2013 ]

Based on limited data, the observed variations in the intensity and frequency of tropical and extra-tropical cyclones and severe local storms Patient show no clear trends in the last half of the 20th century, although multi-decadal fluctuations are sometimes apparent. [ 11IPCCBILAN2001 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

In 2007, a particularly Degree severe storm Patient causes the ocean to break through levees in the Netherlands making a few key coastal cities such as The Hague unlivable. [ RAPPORTPENTAGONE 0 TK MCLH 08/08/2013 ]

Experts also predict longer and more frequent extreme weather events such as heavy rains, droughts, floods, and severe storms Patient whose impacts on humans and natural ecosystems could be significant (for example, longer and more frequent heat waves could increase heat ­stress related deaths). [ 6CANADAQFP 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

If the poles warm more than the tropics, as they are expected to do, the temperature differences that drive these storms would diminish and the number of severe storms Patient would likely decrease. [ 2CANADACCD9801 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

In the United States, where tornadoes occur more frequently than anywhere else, studies have shown no increase in the occurrence of strong tornadoes, although reports of less Degree severe tornadoes Patient have increased. [ 2CANADACCD9801 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

The number of extraordinarily Degree severe floods, storms, and other weather calamities Patient that have occurred within the past 15 to 20 years would seem to suggest that such events are becoming more common. [ 2CANADACCD9801 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

Extreme weather events , such as heat waves and storms Patient , could also become more frequent and more Degree severe , causing damage to property and endangering people 's lives. [ 4CANADAFACC 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

Near the lake, at Bol, the drought Patient was even more Degree severe : with rainfall decreasing from 700 millimetres in 1954 to 140 millimetres in 1989. [ JACLET 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]

I hear that the 1997-98 El Niño Patient may have been one of the most Degree severe of this century, after another severe El Niño event only 15 years ago. [ 6CANADAQFP 0 TK 08/07/2013 ]
