attribution<\/strong>: See attribution science (if it’s related to weather or climate).<\/p>\n

climate<\/strong>: The weather conditions that typically exist in one area, in general, or over a long period.<\/p>\n

climate change<\/strong>: Long-term, significant change in the climate of Earth. It can happen naturally or in response to human activities, including the burning of fossil fuels and clearing of forests.<\/p>\n

data<\/strong>: Facts and\/or statistics collected together for analysis but not necessarily organized in a way that gives them meaning. For digital information (the type stored by computers), those data typically are numbers stored in a binary code, portrayed as strings of zeros and ones.<\/p>\n

fossil fuel<\/strong>: Any fuel \u2014 such as coal, petroleum (crude oil) or natural gas \u2014 that has developed within the Earth over millions of years from the decayed remains of bacteria, plants or animals.<\/p>\n

global warming<\/strong>: The gradual increase in the overall temperature of Earth\u2019s atmosphere due to the greenhouse effect. This effect is caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons and other gases in the air, many of them released by human activity.<\/p>\n

hurricane<\/strong>: A tropical cyclone that occurs in the Atlantic Ocean and has winds of 119 kilometers (74 miles) per hour or greater. When such a storm occurs in the Pacific Ocean, people refer to it as a typhoon.<\/p>\n

model<\/strong>: A simulation of a real-world event (usually using a computer) that has been developed to predict one or more likely outcomes.\u00a0Or an individual that is meant to display how something would work in or look on others.<\/p>\n

Pacific<\/strong>: The largest of the world\u2019s five oceans. It separates Asia and Australia to the west from North and South America to the east.<\/p>\n

risk<\/strong>: The chance or mathematical likelihood that some bad thing might happen. For instance, exposure to radiation poses a risk of cancer. Or the hazard \u2014 or peril \u2014 itself. (For instance: Among cancer risks that the people faced were radiation and drinking water tainted with arsenic<\/em>.)<\/p>\n

Siberia<\/strong>: A region in northern Asia, almost all of which falls within Russia. This land takes its name from the language of the Tatar people, where Siber means sleeping land. This region is vast. It has become famous for its long, harsh winters, where temperatures can fall to \u221268\u00b0 Celsius (\u221290\u00b0 Fahrenheit).<\/p>\n

Texas<\/strong>: The second largest state in the United States, located along the southern border with Mexico. It is about 1,270 kilometers (790 miles) long and covers an area of 696,000 square kilometers (268,581 square miles).<\/p>\n

weather<\/strong>: Conditions in the atmosphere at a localized place and a particular time. It is usually described in terms of particular features, such as air pressure, humidity, moisture, any precipitation (rain, snow or ice), temperature and wind speed. Weather constitutes the actual conditions that occur at any time and place. It\u2019s different from climate, which is a description of the conditions that tend to occur in some general region during a particular month or season.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
