Extensive areas of the Caribbean interior are permanently flooded, more because of poor drainage than because of the moderately heavy precipitation during the rainy season from May through October.

There is evidence that the frequency and intensity of extreme precipitation events will increase over many areas worldwide, notably over many northern hemisphere mid to high latitude land areas.

Observing systems. Understanding atmospheric change requires an integrated system for collecting data on a wide array of parameters, including greenhouse gases, ozone, solar radiation, precipitation chemistry, aerosols, reactive gases and meteorology.

At this time a dramatic shift in climate occurred, causing a significant drop in precipitation in the Titicaca Basin, believed by archaeologists to have been on the scale of a major drought.

These health hazards range from deaths related to extreme high temperatures and natural disasters to a change in patterns of diseases that are sensitive to temperature and precipitation, such as malaria and dengue.

The least precipitation is recorded in the outer islands (Vis, Lastovo, Biševo, Svetac) and in the eastern parts of Slavonia, however in the latter case, it is mostly occurring during the growing season.

We are now learning how those environmental impacts are aggravated by atmospheric pollution, acid precipitation and atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases and why global climate change may pose the most serious threat of them all.
