This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: example01_revised, REGIONAL IMPACTS OF GLOBAL WARMING: SHIFTING RAINBELTS, MORE CYCLING OF WARM WATER IN A WARMER ATMOSPHERE & INCREASED EVAPORATION results in more intense hurricanes, REGIONAL IMPACTS OF GLOBAL WARMING: SHIFTING RAINBELTS, MORE CYCLING OF WARM WATER IN A WARMER ATMOSPHERE & INCREASED EVAPORATION results in more intense events of flooding and droughts, the opening of the northwest passage resulting in race among nations for oil drilling in the Arctic, more intense events of flooding and droughts causing an increase in competition for fertile/habitable land, heatwaves leading to heat related mortality, REGIONAL IMPACTS OF GLOBAL WARMING: SHIFTING RAINBELTS, MORE CYCLING OF WARM WATER IN A WARMER ATMOSPHERE & INCREASED EVAPORATION increasing incidence of heatwaves, more intense events of flooding and droughts further causing pollution of fresh water (availability of fresh water), the opening of the northwest passage resulting in opening up of new sea route, competition for fertile/habitable land leading to a food shortage, REGIONAL IMPACTS OF GLOBAL WARMING: SHIFTING RAINBELTS, MORE CYCLING OF WARM WATER IN A WARMER ATMOSPHERE & INCREASED EVAPORATION leads to the opening of the northwest passage, REGIONAL IMPACTS OF GLOBAL WARMING: SHIFTING RAINBELTS, MORE CYCLING OF WARM WATER IN A WARMER ATMOSPHERE & INCREASED EVAPORATION will also threaten hydroelectric energy plants
