Irrigation effects on climate may also be indirect, especially in monsoon regions where alteration of the thermal contrast between land and ocean may produce changes in monsoon circulation and the accompanying climatic variables.

Just reminds me of the climate gate email that is not often discussed where someone (I do nt recall who off hand) notes its good that the skeptics at least have not yet made a point yet about the discrepancy between land and ocean temps, as the land should follow the sea and can not warm at a faster rate for any physical reason.

The space agency is confident that the GeoCARB mission will continue the nation's pioneering efforts in quantifying critical greenhouse gases and vegetation health from space, which in turn will help us better understand the Earth's natural exchanges of carbon between the land, atmosphere and ocean.

It also means that the models can not zero in and pinpoint localized weather sources, such as clouds or even hurricanes, and they blur distinctions between land and sea or mountains and plains.

Whilst bearing in mind that ~ 70 % of global insolation strikes ocean surface and ocean «thermal capacity» (Cp) is greater than land Cp, ocean Cp can be seen to provide energy to land Cp where land surface temperatures are low (as can be seen from diurnal atmospheric observations between land and ocean surfaces).

Passive microwave data may show ice where none actually exists due to signal variation between land and water along coastlines, or because of atmospheric interference from rain or high winds over the ice - free ocean.

Richard # 111: My understanding on the difference between land and sea is that water (deep water in particular) has a massive capacity to absorb heat energy.

There are three main ways that plants influence the amount and type of energy exchanged between the land and the atmosphere:

«the cycling of carbon, energy and water between the land and the atmosphere is much more complex.»

This indicates to me that the rate of energy being added to the oceans has not increased over a longer time period and that there is thus a discrepancy between land and ocean temperature data.

... but I think that most of the short - term variations (a few years) are related to the water cycle and movement of water between land and oceans.

• Links between land use / cover change and greenhouse gas emissions.

Additionally, low cloud cover exhibited noticeable asymmetry between land / ocean and Solar / GCRs.

Other empirical data and theoretical models indicate that such interplays between land use and climate change are likely to cause desertification in many other dryland environments that currently support 2 billion people (D'Odorico et al., 2013; Schlesinger et al., 1990).
