Sentences with phrase «local climate variations»

Local climate variations can be dominated by internal climate variability, often the result of the redistribution of heat by regional climate processes.

But it's like I say: as planetary climate systems show all possible signs of disruption, what we get is strange climatic conditions and extreme weather events on a local level, and these conditions and event are conditioned by great variations from continent to continent and from one year to the next.

It basically says that ringwidth is a function of: age trend + climate signal + endogenous (local) disturbances + exogenous (standwide) disturbances + unexplained variation Basically, this concept also underlies all other dendro proxies, be it maximum latewood density or stable isotope ratios, even though there are variations, e. g. age trend in density data is treated differently from ring width data).

Other variations are not so obvious and I expect there have been numerous studies about the local effects of humidity and deforestation to local climates as this is one of the pressing problems in many areas today.

Proxy - A proxy climate indicator is a local record that is interpreted, using physical and biophysical principles, to represent some combination of climate - related variations back in time.

The use of anomalies avoids this seasonal / regional variation, because when the climate isn't changing, neither will be the anomalies except for local noise.

In the relatively unlikely event that a proxy indicator represents a truly local climate phenomenon which is uncorrelated with larger scale climate variations, or represents a highly nonlinear response to climate variations...

Validation, fidelity of the simulation relative to the physical domain, of GCMs thus firstly requires that the calculations be shown to be correctly simulating the distribution and internal redistribution of the internal variations that are responsible for the local weather / climate.

HAS,» They happen to be a transformation that partials out the local variation from a base climate «Let me put that mathematically.

The variations in local climate are what must be correctly simulated by GCMs.

They happen to be a transformation that partials out the local variation from a base climate (ultimately derived from absolute measures and no doubt subject to change as stations come and go) and it therefore depends on a second hidden (but known) averaging process for its accuracy.

During his presentation Timmermann went on to look at possible trends within this local East African climate variation.

Some geologists denied the whole idea, arguing that every glaciation had been regional, a mere local variation while «the mean climate of the world has been fairly constant.»

Local outlier filter: We tested for and flagged values that exceeded a locally determined empirical 99.9 % threshold for normal climate variation in each record.

There are several other issues like natural variation component, solar components, ecological changes components [that influence local and regional climate], physical impacts on ecological sensitive zones like ice, etc..

It is stunning how many people think they're climate experts and are perfectly ignorant of the difference between changes in global average temperature and local temperature variation.

In the lower atmosphere, the available data points to increasing water vapor content, but because of large variations in local humidity from day to night, from day to day, and from season to season, no - one currently knows exactly how much more water vapor is going into the air (IPCC Working Group 1 Assessment Report 4, Chapter 3, «Observations: Surface and Atmospheric Climate Change», page 273).

But variation in local feedbacks (and hence in local climate sensitivity) does seem to have more local effects.

It is also possible, as your presentation suggests, that our ability to determine sea level rise globally is so distorted by local variations that the data now available to climate scientists like yourself is all but meaningless.»
