12、 at different climate periods, from preindustrial times to the present. The analyses also predicted what weather events were likely to be like in the future. This period was predicted to be warmer by 2 and 3 degrees Celsius. The computer looked at when extreme heat and precipitation(降水量) occurred du

13、ring each climate period. It focused on events of unusual heat or heavy precipitation. Before the Industrial Revolution, such extremes typically would have occurred only once in every 1,000 days. “But since the globe has been warming, such extremes are no longer nearly as rare. These new findings pr
