Geotimes July 2004 Sara Pratt	Recalculating the Warming Trend Over the past 15 years climate researchers have observed that while temperatures at the earth's surface have been quickly on the rise, the troposphere has been warming more slowly than expected.
Geotimes October 2005 Sara Pratt	Revisiting the Satellite Record Global warming skeptics have long pointed to satellite data showing cooling in the tropical atmosphere as evidence that either climate models or measurements of surface warming, or both, are unreliable. New research suggests, however, that it is the analysis of the satellite data that was wrong.
Geotimes January 2006 Kathryn Hansen	2005 Was Warmest Year on Record The record-breaking number of named storms during the 2005 hurricane season may have dominated weather news, but at the same time, another record was in the making: The year now stands as the warmest on record, according to some climatologists.
D-Lib Jul/Aug 2002	NOAA Paleoclimatology Program In order to avoid future "climate surprises" (abrupt, unexpected climatic changes), the Paleoclimatology Program collects evidence of climate change that has occurred over hundreds and even thousands of years.
Geotimes May 2006 Carolyn Gramling	Natural Bumps in the Atmosphere Temperatures at Earth's surface have been rising for decades, but in the upper atmosphere, the temperature is slowly dropping. In explaining this change, scientists have focused on human-related causes -- but a new study shows that nature should not be ignored.
Geotimes December 2005 Kevin E. Trenberth	A Warming World Climate change is with us; we cannot stop it, although we can slow it down. It behooves us therefore to track how and why the climate is changing.

Geotimes September 2006 Lee Gerhard	Testing Global Warming Hypotheses Global climate change has been a natural phenomenon driven by natural processes for 4.5 billion years. Nevertheless, cultural pressures exist to identify a human cause for current global climate change.
Geotimes June 2003 Neeta Bijoor	Land use could also affect climate Scientists have traditionally called attention to heat-trapping greenhouse gases as a reason for climate change, commonly known as global warming. A new study adds to evidence that urbanization and other land-use changes may play a comparable role in climate change.

Geotimes March 2006 Kathryn Hansen	Marine Critters Record Global Warming Layers of fossilized marine creatures have acted as an independent record of ocean temperature for millennia. Now, data from such layers is mirroring the same warming trend that instruments have shown -- suggesting humans are contributing to global warming.

Geotimes August 2007 Carolyn Gramling	No More "Snows of Kilimanjaro"? Mount Kilimanjaro's glaciers have receded dramatically, making the highest point in Africa a high-profile poster child for global warming. Some scientists contend, however, that Kilimanjaro is a poor example, as its glaciers were disappearing before warming set in.
