Climate to Blame in Cultural Collapses The Anasazi people in the Four Corners region of the American Southwest disappeared suddenly, possibly due to climate change that made food and water sources scarce. Researchers are now linking several past periods of climate change with failed civilizations. |

Modeling Toward Accurate Storm Forecasting For the time being, getting the weather right will still require a large dose of good fortune. But continued improvements in our weather predicting capabilities will eventually take the guessing out of storm prediction and bring us to the moment when wagering on the weather will be a safe bet indeed. |
