Climate variability refers to the natural variations and changes that occur in weather patterns and conditions over a period of time. It includes changes in temperature, rainfall, wind patterns, and other elements of the climate system. These variations can happen in short-term or long-term cycles and can affect local, regional, or global climate conditions.
Full definition
These methodologies not only require data and software, but also a minimum level of experience in the interpretation
of climate variability in both models and observations.
Or was there perhaps some internal
climate variability in that run which resulted in a temporary cooling over that time?
A human - caused warming signal is embedded in the rich, year - to - year and decade - to - decade noise of natural
internal climate variability.
Developing farm - level adaptation strategies to reduce the impacts of
climate variability on agriculture production.
The simulations produced permit assessment of the interplay between long - range trends and near -
term climate variability in terms of agricultural production.
Results from this work provide regional climate stakeholders with the information they need to develop plans for reducing the risks associated
with climate variability and change.
Natural
climate variability over recent geological time is greater than reasonable estimates of potential human - induced greenhouse gas changes.
By investigating the regional - scale patterns of
past climate variability, the study helps to understand and quantify the processes that cause climate to change.
However, our result of multi-year drought predictability suggests that the annual frequency of atmospheric river water supply is controlled by large -
scale climate variability and change.
Climate models, also known as general circulation models of the climate system, are used to investigate and
understand climate variability and change.
For countries at all levels of development, these impacts are consistent with a significant lack of preparedness for
current climate variability in some sectors.
Year - to -
year climate variability in the form of drought or flooding already has large - scale effects on food security today.
No scientific consensus has been reached yet as to how a possible acceleration could be separated from
intrinsic climate variability in sea level records.
Climate models can't accurately represent natural
climate variability because they don't even include most natural climate variables that influence the climate.
But to us still natural
climate variability seems an equally convincing candidate to explain a recent set of near - average - temperature winters.
The current drought fits into our sense of
what climate variability can bring to the region once you use the paleo record to fully assess the possibilities.
A warmer global average temperature does not necessarily mean every region of the world will get hotter, as regional
climate variability produces different effects in different parts of the world, he added.
We know that climate change and
climate variability pose a major threat to the environment, to economic growth and to sustainable development.
Furthermore,
climate variability substantially alters the distribution and abundance of major fish stocks, and has implications for marine populations and ecosystems.
