Sentences with phrase «avg temp by»

If the sun enters such a sustained period of low solar activity again, it could dampen the global avg temp by between 0.1 and 0.4 deg (eg recent paper by Rahmstorf; KNMI climate science update).

But we just increased avg temps by 1 degree, so the baseline has changed and the higher levels are too hot.

Not exact matches

That being said, assume a 2 - 4 deg C increase in Global avg temp and a doubling of pre-industrial GHG by the year 2100.

The paper concludes that global avg temps may decrease by 0.3 to 0.5 C.

To claim that the global avg temp might as well have decreased 0.7 degrees as increased 0.7 degrees since preindustrial times flies in the face of basic physics, namely that the planetary temperature is governed (a.o.) by the planetary energy balance, and that this balance has substantially changed over the past 100 or so years due in large part to anthropogenic climate forcings, with a bit of help from natural climate forcings.
