The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has organized many of the risks of climate change into five "reasons for concern.
Regional effects of global warming
Regional effects of global warming are long-term significant changes in the expected patterns of average weather of a specific region due to global warming.
El Niño
El Niño /ɛl ˈniːnjoʊ/ (Spanish pronunciation: [el ˈniɲo]) is the warm phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (commonly called ENSO) and is associated with a band of warm ocean water that develops in the central and east-central equatorial Pacific (between approximately the International Date Line and 120°W), including off the Pacific coast of South America.
Effects of global warming on human health
The effects of global warming include effects on human health.
Effects of global warming
The effects of global warming are the environmental and social changes caused (directly or indirectly) by human emissions of greenhouse gases.
Drunken trees
Drunken trees, tilted trees, or a drunken forest, is a stand of trees displaced from their normal vertical alignment.
Glacier mass balance
Crucial to the survival of a glacier is its mass balance or surface mass balance (SMB), the difference between accumulation and ablation (sublimation and melting).
Physical impacts of climate change
This article is about the physical impacts of climate change.
Climate change feedback
Climate change feedback is important in the understanding of global warming because feedback processes may amplify or diminish the effect of each climate forcing, and so play an important part in determining the climate sensitivity and future climate state.
Shutdown of thermohaline circulation
A shutdown or slowdown of the thermohaline circulation is an effect of global warming on a major ocean circulation.
Mountain pine beetle
The mountain pine beetle Dendroctonus ponderosae, is a species of bark beetle native to the forests of western North America from Mexico to central British Columbia.
Sea level rise
Sea level rise has been estimated to be on average between +2.
Climate change and ecosystems
This article is about climate change and ecosystems.
Long-term effects of global warming
There are expected to be various long-term effects of global warming.

Effects of global warming on humans
Climate change has brought about possibly permanent alterations to our planet’s geological, biological and ecological systems.
