Climate change will continue over the next 1,000 years

According to a study published in Nature Geoscience, the impact of elevated CO2 levels on Earth's atmosphere will create unstoppable effects on the climate for at least 1,000 years. next.

The study, conducted by scientists at Canada's Center for Climate Analysis and Modeling and the University of Calgary, is a simulation of the first full-scale climate model, to make predictions within 1,000 years. from now on.

Dr. Shawn Marshall, director of the study, said: " We create scenarios if. For example, what if we completely stop using fossil fuels and not? discharging more CO2 into the atmosphere How long will this help reverse current climate change trends? "

In computer simulation models, the Northern Hemisphere is in better shape than the Southern Hemisphere, with climate change models reversing over the next 1,000 years in areas like Canada.

At the same time, some parts of North Africa will be deserted when the land area is dried up to 30% and ocean temperatures rise by 5 degrees Celsius in Antarctica can create collapses big tape.

The researchers hypothesize that one reason for the difference between the North and South Pole is the slow movement of ocean currents from the North Atlantic into the South Atlantic Ocean.

" Global oceans and parts of the Southern Hemisphere have more inertia and such changes are slower, " Marshall said, adding that the winds in the Southern Hemisphere also have can have an impact.

Researchers will continue to further investigate the impact of atmospheric temperature on ocean temperatures to help determine the speed at which West Antarctica can melt and time may completely collapse into. country.
