But while the historical observations showed a decreasing trend, climate models suggested such events should increase.

In addition, climate models and observations suggest that there may be modes of variability which act on multi-decadal timescales, although understanding of such modes is currently limited3.

However, many clinicians spoke of their own observations of peripheral symptoms in SMA patients such as gastrointestinal issues and metabolic defects that are not as common in other neuromuscular diseases, suggesting a direct role of SMN in peripheral tissues.

The 6 drug - resistant mutations have not yet been described in patients, but our observation that Tyr931 mutation confers resistance of JAK2 V617F to several JAK inhibitors, including INCB018424, suggest that these mutations might contribute to the development of drug - resistant clones during treatment of JAK2 V617F - positive MPNs with such inhibitors.

Older evidence suggests that classroom observations can be influenced by factors unrelated to performance, such as age and race.

She pointed out that other academics, such as Professor Rob Coe, have previously shown that peer observations focused on rating individual aspects of a lesson did not change pupil outcomes, and have suggested that it is hard to judge teaching quality in this manner.

There are, however, caveats: (1) multidecadal fluctuations in Arctic — subarctic climate and sea ice appear most pronounced in the Atlantic sector, such that the pan-Arctic signal may be substantially smaller [e.g., Polyakov et al., 2003; Mahajan et al., 2011]; (2) the sea - ice records synthesized here represent primarily the cold season (winter — spring), whereas the satellite record clearly shows losses primarily in summer, suggesting that other processes and feedback are important; (3) observations show that while recent sea - ice losses in winter are most pronounced in the Greenland and Barents Seas, the largest reductions in summer are remote from the Atlantic, e.g., Beaufort, Chukchi, and Siberian seas (National Snow and Ice Data Center, 2012, http://nsidc.org/Arcticseaicenews/); and (4) the recent reductions in sea ice should not be considered merely the latest in a sequence of AMOrelated multidecadal fluctuations but rather the first one to be superposed upon an anthropogenic GHG warming background signal that is emerging strongly in the Arctic [Kaufmann et al., 2009; Serreze et al., 2009].

The current warm — dry event in California — as well as historical observations of previous seasonal, annual, and multiannual warm — dry events — suggests such a regime would substantially increase the risk of severe impacts on human and natural systems.

The reasons for that are many: the timid language of scientific probabilities, which the climatologist James Hansen once called «scientific reticence» in a paper chastising scientists for editing their own observations so conscientiously that they failed to communicate how dire the threat really was; the fact that the country is dominated by a group of technocrats who believe any problem can be solved and an opposing culture that doesn't even see warming as a problem worth addressing; the way that climate denialism has made scientists even more cautious in offering speculative warnings; the simple speed of change and, also, its slowness, such that we are only seeing effects now of warming from decades past; our uncertainty about uncertainty, which the climate writer Naomi Oreskes in particular has suggested stops us from preparing as though anything worse than a median outcome were even possible; the way we assume climate change will hit hardest elsewhere, not everywhere; the smallness (two degrees) and largeness (1.8 trillion tons) and abstractness (400 parts per million) of the numbers; the discomfort of considering a problem that is very difficult, if not impossible, to solve; the altogether incomprehensible scale of that problem, which amounts to the prospect of our own annihilation; simple fear.
