Study finds global warming makes California's drought worse | 20 Aug 2015 | Climate change Global warming has aggravated California's devastating drought, causing between 8 and 27 percent of the dry conditions afflicting the nation's most populous state, a study released on Thursday has found. The study, published this week in Geophysical Research Letters, is the first paper to estimate how much climate change has exacerbated the state's drought by sending moisture from plants and soils into the air, according to Columbia University, where the lead author works. Researchers examined monthly weather data, including rainfall and temperatures, going back 114 years to isolate the proportion of the drought they concluded was due to climate change global warming, as opposed to natural weather variations that have heated up the state, according to Columbia University.
