This is known via
various lines of evidence, including: — Post-1950s stratospheric cooling — Post-1950s mesospheric cooling — Post-1950s thermospheric cooling — Horizontal / regional distribution of warming and the temporal pattern of warming [DOI: 10.1175 / BAMS - D -11-00191.1, pages 1683 and 1684]-- Exclusion of
other likely causal
factors, such as the Sun [ex: solar - induced warming causes warming of the stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere, yet scientists observed cooling in these layers].
Even the modest temp increase recorded in the global temp series is
likely to be overstated (and very unlikely to be understated) due to
various factors such as UHI (in its broader definition of stations getting increasingly in close vicinity of concrete, bricks, asphalt, metal and engines, even in rural areas) and also problems with the choice of stations, and
other problems with infilling and averaging of gridcells without due consideration of spatial autocorrelation and
other similar problems (cf e.g. the Steig - O'Donnell debate).
Comment: Female older siblings are far more
likely than male older siblings to be given child care responsibilities while young; teenage girls are far more
likely than teenage boys to hold childcare and babysitting jobs; new mothers are far more
likely to have prepared for parenthood by reading pregnancy - to - parenting articles and books as well as talking with (and spending social time with) primary caregiving women friends and relatives and their children; the ever - present months - long pregnancy itself initiates mothers into a mindset of habitual constant awareness of child - whereabouts; and
various biological and hormonal
factors make mothers more responsive to routine infant cues (
other than severe distress cries.)
Also, a number of
other factors, such as behavioral inhibition (e.g., Shamir - Essakow et al., 2005), peer relations (e.g., Bosquet and Egeland, 2006), cognitive biases (see Hadwin et al., 2006), cognitive development (e.g., Fenning et al., 2011), and gender (e.g., Bender et al., 2012), are
likely to be related to this framework, and future investigations need to examine how the
various factors are associated with each
other.
