Ultimately, there is limited value in debating whether human - driven warming has caused the uncloaking of any particular Arctic island, the retreat of a snowfield atop any single mountain — even one as charismatic as Kilimanjaro — or the breakup of a particular ice shelf in Antarctica, or any other regional anomaly.

The point I am trying to make is «when it is claimed that DO events represent a much larger and more rapid climate change than anthropogenic global warming,» perhaps DO events do cause rapid regional climate change larger and more rapid than anthropogenic global warming generally.

The NCA and CSSR simply pick out the worst rising variables, global or regional, that might be related to global warming (which they also assume is human caused).

As this map suggests, CO2 - caused «global» warming is highly suspect since normal regional weather / climate oscillations easily overwhelm its impact.

The authors conclude that the there is a higher retreat - rate for marine terminating glaciers in the recent warm period; in the 1930s when there is a natural mode of variability active that caused regional temperatures around Greenland to be anomalously warm, there was a higher retreat rate for land - terminating glaciers (the lower retreat rate today is in part because they are currently smaller).

We have been investigating the causes and impacts of these trends, with a focus on determining if the regional warming and cooling patterns result from natural variability or are due to human activities.

1) Post-1950s stratospheric cooling 2) Post-1950s mesospheric cooling 3) Post-1950s thermospheric cooling 4) Horizontal / regional distribution of warming and the temporal pattern of warming [DOI: 10.1175 / BAMS - D -11-00191.1, pages 1683 and 1684] 5) 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].

... «When you hear a phrase like he said, «the highest ever,» you know, «off the charts,» «record setting,» that's a good sign that on top of a whatever local weather patterns there are or regional like El Nino, global warming, fossil fuel driven climate change is putting its finger on the scale and juicing the atmosphere and causing the even bigger weather event than you would have otherwise seen.»

Theses lines of evidence include: — 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].

16 * Melting Glaciers and Rising Sea Levels Over the last century glaciers have been melting worldwide Antarctica ice sheet temp has risen 6 degrees As ice sheets and glaciers melt, sea level rises * Regional Temp Changes Changes in regional climate * Drought and Desertification Rising temps causes regions to warm and become very dry.

-- 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]-- Climate sensitivity estimates, where even the low range estimates would end up with CO2 causing most of the post-1950s warming — 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].

Watering your lawn causes some localized warming and in a place like Flagstaff everyone does it changes regional temperatures.]

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].

Increased snow cover last year, cooler temperatures, higher temperatures in the 1920's and 1930's, etc. are all discounted as regional or temporary, because of the fundamental belief that the earth is warming due to man - made causes.

The one thing about Dr. Meier's answers that interested me was this idea he has that regional warming can be natural and cyclical, but that if it is world wide than it has to be caused by manmade sources.

If maximum temperatures have not exceeded that earlier peak, CO2 has not caused any regional «accumulation of heat» due to the hypothesized radiative imbalance; and Parmesan is still very wrong for suggesting global warming was extirpating butterflies.

I've been a bit impressed in recent years (not) at the ability of politically endorsed science to be able to use data from these areas and regurgitate it as global data rather than regional data, or to relate it to human caused warming.

Not only have its models been conclusively wrong about CO2 - caused global warming over the last 15 years, but the climate models» regional predictions are often diametrically opposite of reality.

The recent warming in the Arctic anyway is not direct from regional CO2, as the observed warming needs a heat / radiation unbalance which is an order of magnitude larger than the direct change in radiation caused by CO2 increases...

Temperatures may rise to levels where land ice melts, and feedbacks created by sea ice loss reinforce regional Arctic warming, which in turn could cause more land ice to melt.

«What we're seeing is stark evidence that the gradual temperature increase is not the important story related to climate change; it's the rapid regional changes and increased frequency of extreme weather that global warming is causing.

However, calculations showed that this subtle effect should cause no more than a small regional warming.
