Overview

Global warming is the long-term rise in Earth's average surface temperature driven by increasing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases, principally carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor, which enhance the trapping of outgoing longwave radiation. It is the central component of anthropogenic climate change and manifests through shifting precipitation regimes, more frequent extreme weather, sea-level rise, glacial and sea-ice retreat, and altered hydrological cycles. Mitigation centers on reducing emissions through energy efficiency, renewable deployment, and carbon uptake, while adaptation addresses unavoidable impacts on water, agriculture, ecosystems, and health. The peer-reviewed research collected here engages these themes through studies of energy efficiency and conservation in residential buildings, solar thermal pre-heating, and alternative power systems that reduce fossil-fuel dependence. Climate-impact contributions examine declining river water levels and rainfall, vulnerabilities arising from extreme hydrological events, fisheries and salmon population responses, and the climate change-land degradation-food security nexus. Additional work considers biotechnology and incubation-temperature effects on sex determination in sea turtles, illustrating biological sensitivity to warming. Methods span building case studies, hydrological and rainfall analysis, artificial neural network modeling, and ecological assessment, reflecting how global warming connects energy systems, water resources, agriculture, and biodiversity within an integrated framework of mitigation and adaptation.
