Climate Science
 Climate Science encompasses the various physical, chemical and meteorological processes involved in global and regional climate variability and change. Understanding the atmosphere and the ways that it is affected by biological changes in the marine and terrestrial environments and by anthropogenic activities is also a main focus of Climate Science. Current research has demonstrated that human activities are a key aspect of the physical climate system. Such discussion should recognize that climate varies on all time scales. Although the immediate focus is on variability from one year to the next and one decade to the next, climate variations also take place on time frames ranging from centuries to millennia. In this context, global warming issues are also critically important.
