1.Which of the
following things can we learn from paleoclimate records?
a. How much climate
varies due to natural factors and so whether recent changes might be due to
human activities
b. The sensitivity of
climate (i.e. how much temperature/precipitation changes) due to variations in
factors such as greenhouse gas concentrations, solar luminosity, aerosols
c. How well our
complex computer models of the climate system can replicate known climate
changes. This helps us assess whether we can trust the model estimates for
future climate changes.
d. All of the above2. Which of the
following types of weather would not develop where there is strong wind shear?

vegetation. How would this reduce the heat island effect?
a. by increasing the ratio of
sensible heat flux to latent heat flux
b. by increasing
albedo
c. by increasing the
ratio of latent heat flux to sensible heat flux4. Which of the
following atmospheric factors would improve air quality in LA?
