As you can see in the first graph sudden and noticeable climate
change on a decadal basis is very common.

The big takeaway from this study: While there is uncertainty in projections for
changes in the climate indices reviewed here (especially El Niño and La Niña), this study serves to alert us to the fact that the climate impacts that our local coastal communities face are
based in large part
on changes that occur
on both a large, global scale and over the long,
decadal term.
For the Earth's «fast» system,
changes in
decadal statistics can be computed
on the
basis of
changes in forcing such as GHG's, without any need for knowledge of the initial conditions.
Back around 2007/8, two high - profile papers claimed to produce, for the first time, skilful predictions of
decadal climate
change,
based on new techniques of ocean state initialization in climate models.
My calculations show that combining heliospheric magnetic field (controlling input of the cosmic rays
basis of the Svensmark's theory) with
changes in the Earth's magnetic field indeed shows close correlation with the temperature variability in the N. Hemisphere
on the annual,
decadal and multi-
decadal scale.
Based on the results, we suggest that human footprint
on soil greenhouse gases fluxes is comparable to the effect of climate
change at an annual to
decadal timescales.
The referenced study noted that our climate
changes frequently when calculated
on an annual and
decadal basis, in fact virtually no decade is like its predecessor or successor.
The CET data for the period indicate a distinct climate shift of some 0.35 degrees centigrade
on a 50 year
basis, but rather more
on a
decadal basis, so that well documented era can usefully be our benchmark for temperature comparisons, whilst demonstrating the usefulness of a
decadal time scale in determining a
change in the climate that is «noticeable» and has an impact
on humans and nature.
The results of the DCPP are a contribution to the 6th Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6), to the WCRP Grand Challenge
on Near Term Climate Prediction (NTCP), potentially to the Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate
Change (IPCC), to the Global Framework for Climate Services (GFCS), and as one of the
bases for the development of a WMO Commission for Basic Systems (CBS) Global
Decadal Climate Outlook (GDCO) in support of applications.
Based on the understanding of both the physical processes that control key climate feedbacks (see Section 8.6.3), and also the origin of inter-model differences in the simulation of feedbacks (see Section 8.6.2), the following climate characteristics appear to be particularly important: (i) for the water vapour and lapse rate feedbacks, the response of upper - tropospheric RH and lapse rate to interannual or
decadal changes in climate; (ii) for cloud feedbacks, the response of boundary - layer clouds and anvil clouds to a
change in surface or atmospheric conditions and the
change in cloud radiative properties associated with a
change in extratropical synoptic weather systems; (iii) for snow albedo feedbacks, the relationship between surface air temperature and snow melt over northern land areas during spring and (iv) for sea ice feedbacks, the simulation of sea ice thickness.
I judge the models implausible
on the
basis of describing fundamentals — ENSO, PDO, AMO etc — and in predicting even
decadal temperature
changes.
Changes in the watershed can, for example, lead to changes in alkalinity and CO2 fluxes that, together with metabolic processes and oceanic dynamics, yield high - magnitude decadal changes of up to 0.5 units in coastal pH. Metabolism results in strong diel to seasonal fluctuations in pH, with characteristic ranges of 0.3 pH units, with metabolically intense habitats exceeding this range on a daily
