TPO-27 Integrated Writing
The little ice age was a period of unusually cold temperature in many parts of the world that lasted from about the year 1350 until 1900CE. There were southern harsh winters, and glaciers grew also in many areas. Scientist have long wondered what caused the Little Ice Age. Several possible causes have been proposed.
First, the cooling may have been caused by disrupting of ocean currents. Before the Little Ice Age, there was a period of unusually warm weather during which glaciers melted. These melted glaciers sent evidence amount of cold freshwater into the Gulf Stream, a large ocean current that strongly affects Earth's climate. Some scientists believe that this freshwater was enough to temporarily disrupt the Gulf Stream. Such a disruption could have caused the Little Ice Age.
Second, volcanic eruption could have caused the Little Ice Age. When volcanoes erupt, they send dark clouds of dust and sulfur gas into the atmosphere. These clouds, which can spread over great areas, block some sunlight from reaching Earth's surface. This can decrease the global temperatures. Scientists know of several volcanic eruption that took place during the Little Ice Age.
Third, substantial decreases in human populations may have contributed indirectly to the cooling of the climate. For a variety of reason(disease, warfare, social disruption), the human population just before the Little Ice Age and during the early part of it was lower than it had been in a long time. Forest trees started growing on fields that were no longer used for agriculture. Since trees absorb carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, they decrease the greenhouse effect that keeps Earth warm. With more forest trees carbon dioxide, earth became cooler.
Both the reading passage and the listening lecture give some information about the causes of little ice age. What is written in the text is either refuted or challenged by the lecturer.
First of all, the reading claims that the cause of cooling is a reason of large amount of cold freshwater distribution to the ocean and it's effect on earth's climate, yet the professor refutes this point by saying that cooling effects southern atmosphere especially southern Africa and New Zealand. southern areas can not become cooler.
Secondly, the author posits volcanic eruption causes the little ice age. However, this argument rebutted by the lecturer. She elaborates on this by mentioning there was not a large amount of volcanic eruption. Because it produces a visual effects like colorful sunset.
Finally, the article puts forward decreasing of the human population may have an effect on the cooling of the climate. Because lack of human population lets forest grow fastly on fields and it provides decrease the greenhouse effect on the earth, but the professor opposes this point by explaining that was not enough time for forest will soon growing population large enough to cause long-time effect.
