Send us a textIn this episode of the podcast, I have discussed about "Microclimate."Additional Info:Microclimate is the suite of climatic conditions measured in localized areas near the earth's surface. These environmental variables—which include temperature, light, wind speed, and moisture—provide meaningful indicators for habitat selection and other ecological activities.The most striking characteristic of the urban microclimate is the Urban Heat Island (UHI). The UHI effect causes the temperature to be warmer in the city center than in the surrounding area. The difference in temperature can reach seve...

Episode 29: Climate Variability Part 2 (Final Part)
Send us a textIn this episode of the podcast, I have talked about in depth about "Climate Variability" and it is the final part which is part-2. Climate Variability is defined as variations in the mean state and other statistics of the climate on all temporal and spatial scales, beyond individual weather events. The term "Climate Variability" is often used to denote deviations of climatic statistics over a given period of time (e.g. a month, season or year) when compared to long-term statistics for the same calendar period. Climate variability is measured by these deviations...

Episode 25: Carbon Leakage
Send us a textIn this episode of podcast, I have talked about "Carbon Leakage." Carbon leakage is central to the discussion on climate policy, given the confluence of issues that are currently being debated, including the 2030 Energy and Climate Framework and the review of the EU carbon leakage. Carbon leakage is the result of asymmetrical carbon policies, especially carbon pricing, and the resulting carbon cost, which affects the international competitive position of some EU industry and could displace production and/or investment, and the emissions of the activities displaced. Topics:What is Carbon Leakage?Im...
