Climatic Change-impact-factor

Climate change, periodic climate change caused by changes in the atmosphere, as well as interactions between the atmosphere and various other geological, chemical , biological, and geographical factors within the Earth system. The atmosphere is a continuously moving, dynamic fluid. Both its physical properties as well as its rate and direction of motion are influenced by a variety of factors including solar radiation, continent geographic position, ocean currents, mountain range location and orientation, atmospheric chemistry, and growing vegetation on the surface of the earth. Through time, all those factors change. Some factors, such as heat distribution within the oceans, atmospheric chemistry, and vegetation on the surface, change at very short timescales. Others, like the continents' position and the location and height of the mountain ranges, change over very long timescales.
