Sentences with phrase «event attribution with»

The two new papers deal with the attribution of a single flood event (Pall et al), and the attribution of increased intensity of rainfall across the Northern Hemisphere (Min et al).

Normally, with a single event there isn't enough information to do any attribution, but Pall et al set up a very large ensemble of runs starting from roughly the same initial conditions to see how often the flooding event occurred.

These events would thus be good candidates for attribution studies — as Bob Henson of UCAR remarked in connection with the colorado event:

«Since the AR4, there is some new limited direct evidence for an anthropogenic influence on extreme precipitation, including a formal detection and attribution study and indirect evidence that extreme precipitation would be expected to have increased given the evidence of anthropogenic influence on various aspects of the global hydrological cycle and high confidence that the intensity of extreme precipitation events will increase with warming, at a rate well exceeding that of the mean precipitation..

Attribution of past short term events such as the MWP and LIA will always be more difficult than with current climate change because the further back we go the less data we have, both regarding the extent of the changes that took place and the various factors which were in play.
