Not exact matches

A major climatic downturn observed within the Greenland ice cores has been attributed to the cooling effects of the ash and aerosols ejected during the eruption of the Youngest Toba Tuff (YTT).

While this is indeed very interesting and does suggest that aerosol indirect effects can have important climatic consequences, it is merely the first step to attributing any particular climatic effect (failure of Sahel monsoon) to a particular cause (aerosol indirect effects).

SCIENTIFIC UNDERSTANDING of these OTHER FACTORS â MOST NOTABLY NATURAL climatic variations, changes in the sun's energy, and the cooling effects of pollutant aerosols â REMAINS INCOMPLETE.»

This proves that the climatic effect of the removal of stratospheric and tropospheric SO2 aerosol emissions is identical.

They concluded that with a bit of help from changes in solar output and natural climatic cycles such as the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), the growth in the volume of aerosols being pumped up power station chimneys was probably enough to block the warming effect of rising greenhouse gas emissions over the period 1998 - 2008.

However — a group of scientists of the US Department of Energy Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, the University of Maryland and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem now say that aerosol pollution does not necessarily lead to (low - lying) stratus clouds one would appreciate for climatic cooling, but that it can also be a factor in the creation of thunderstorm clouds, clouds that have a complicated climate effect, but that are suspected of being net warmers.

In any event, all of these calcs are B S because we don't really understand the sum total of past / present and future aerosol effects nor of CO2 feedbacks nor of the combo of CO2 feedbacks with changing aerosols nor of natural low frequency climatic variation.

Theoretical and Applied Climatology covers climate modeling, climatic changes and climate forecasting, micro - to mesoclimate, applied meteorology as in agro - and forestmeteorology, biometeorology, building meteorology and atmospheric radiation problems as they relate to the biosphere; effects of anthropogenic and natural aerosols or gaseous trace constituents; hardware and software elements of meteorological measurements, including techniques of remote sensing, among other topics of current interest.

In fact, thee exists an attempt to reconstruct climate variations by stressing the climatic effect of the volcano aerosol, but the lack of strong volcano spikes in the temperature record suggest that the volcano effect is already overestimated.

This section assesses (1) the impact of meteorological (climatic) factors like wind, temperature and precipitation on the natural aerosol burden and (2) possible effects of aerosols on climate parameters and biogeochemistry.

But one thing all aerosols have in common is that if you are going to balance the greenhouse effect due to increasing levels of carbon dioxide, you must keep increasing the amount of aerosols — which will then increase the negative effects associated with them — including diminished agricultural output and climatic side - effects — as they will not evenly counteract the effects of increased carbon dioxide and its water vapor feedback due to evaporation.

Emissions scenarios were converted to projections of atmospheric GHG and aerosol concentrations, radiative forcing of the climate, effects on regional climate, and climatic effects on global sea level (IPCC, 2001a).

The relative importance of the various aerosol components is critical for the aerosol climatic effect, since atmospheric aerosols behave differently when their chemical composition changes.
