Climate variations refer to changes and fluctuations in weather patterns over a long period of time. It describes the natural alterations in temperature, rainfall, wind, and other elements that occur in a specific region. These variations can be caused by natural factors like the sun's energy, volcanic eruptions, or human activities such as the emission of greenhouse gases. Overall,
climate variations affect the overall climate conditions experienced in a particular area, contributing to long-term shifts in weather patterns.
Full definition
Her work focuses on the impacts
of climate variations on animal and plant life, and change on global agriculture and urban areas.
But even earlier readings can provide a record of
natural climate variation caused by volcanic eruptions or cycles in ocean circulation.
It merely highlights the fallacy of looking for one single «driver» that explains
climate variations on all time scales.
I find paleo climate to be very fascinating and have been trying to learn more about the evidence for dramatic global
climate variation in the past.
The key issue of interest in
climate variations over the past 2000 years; this is the heart of the so - called hockey stick debate.
Data correlation and model simulations indicate that solar variability and volcanic activity are likely to be leading reasons
for climate variations during the past millennium, before the start of the industrial era.
These intermediate states were not constant; they were characterized by continual, millennial -
scale climate variation.
Only such comprehensive knowledge will enable us to predict, prepare for, mitigate and adapt to future
climate variations with sufficient accuracy.
With an estimated 600 million people surviving on less than $ 1.25 a day, even
minor climate variations could cause irreversible losses and tips large numbers into hardship.
Monitoring long - term changes in water vapor, which are closely linked to
other climate variations and trends, is needed to both predict and detect changes.
An apparently small change in just one aspect of the ocean's behaviour can produce
major climate variations over large areas of the earth.
The system has a large number of interacting parts — cloud, ice, biology, dust, ocean and atmospheric circulation — that together result in
climate variation at all scales.
Anyway, to change course slightly, it seems to me that the tree - line studies would be much better at
identifying climate variations than tree ring studies.
Understanding how such year - to - year natural
climate variations impact coastal water levels is key to developing a full picture of the sea level rise threat through the end of the century.
Thus, it can be concluded that the observed 15 - year trend in radiative imbalance of the tropics is probably a signature of natural rather than
anthropogenic climate variations.
(Note: The computer model used
considers climate variations caused by cosmic ray flux, and other possibly major parameters, as negligible, completely ignoring many recent scientific findings.).
As I noted elsewhere, if you are prepared to accept after all the corrections that the remaining variation is
genuine climate variation.
So if the first period was due to
natural climate variation then this natural variation is more than large enough to explain the change from 1970 to 2000.
In order to estimate sensitivity from
past climate variations, one must identify and quantify the climate forcings.
Even if global warming is proved to be within normal long -
term climate variations, wouldn't it be nice to breathe cleaner air?
Local outlier filter: We tested for and flagged values that exceeded a locally determined empirical 99.9 % threshold for
normal climate variation in each record.
He is an internationally recognised expert in climate change and climate variability, including greenhouse climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion and
interannual climate variations due to El Niño - Southern Oscillation.
Sea level rise hot spots — bursts of accelerated sea rise that last three to five years — happen along the U.S. East Coast thanks to a one - two punch from naturally
occurring climate variations, a new University of Florida study shows.
