Archer & Caldeira claim that the jet streams can generate the total power of 1700 TW, and that the climatic impact will be negligible.

However, due to a lack of data on the time required to produce flood basalts, the climatic impact is difficult to quantify.

While in the Troposphere these have very little climatic impact.

Boom-bust cycles in herbivore populations change the nature of the vegetative environment, with consequent climatic impacts on relative humidity and continentality.

If emissions cannot be cut to those levels, the cost from climatic impacts could be 5 to 20 times higher, The Observer cited the study as saying.

Though the stratosphere's opacity had peaked and is now diminishing, the climatic impacts of Pinatubo must still be fully assessed.

First, it is clear that other policy instruments must be introduced alongside an emissions trading system to address the full climatic impact.

It has been said that the climatic impact will extend also to Afghanistan and Iran.

The intergovernmental panel's assessments on the climatic impact of carbon dioxide have also been attacked by scientists who reached contrary conclusions.

Equally disturbing, however, the costs of climatic impacts and the costs of reducing emissions will be unequally distributed.
