Sentences with phrase «cold events»

The authors also examine the difference between the number of significant warm and cold events over time, and this tells a similar story.

The Younger Dryas cold event at about 12,900 - 11,500 years ago seems to have had the general features of a Heinrich Event, and may in fact be regarded as the most recent of these (Severinghaus et al. 1998).

This very cold event at canal side was well attended.

My question was because you had posted a chart earlier that it appears you had made by turning Veizer dO18 chart upside down, changing the units from dO18 to temp C anomaly with range -8 C to +12 C (see below), and adding «mass extinction events» at abrupt cold events but did not include the equivalent for warm events.

Conversely, notable cold events include the frosts of July 1895, and two significant low - altitude snowfalls, in 1900 and 1901.

Although the age model gives some uncertainty in the timings, it appears that storminess increased at the onset and close of North Atlantic cold events associated with oceanic changes, with reduced storm activity at their peak.

This might seem contrary to warming trends forecast by climate scientists, but a new analysis released this week in Science points out that climate change caused by greenhouse gas emissions may actually have contributed to the well - below average temperatures seen in parts of the U.S.. However, it also predicts that such cold events will become less likely in the future as temperatures start ramping up with the expected start of El Niño later this year.

In addition, ENSO variability was skewed toward cold events along coastal Peru 6.7 - 7.5 ka owing to a shift of warm anomalies toward the Central Pacific.

The update also notes the recent evidence which suggests an association between the rapid rate of Arctic warming and extreme cold events further south (including in Europe and the Eastern USA) due to a weakened and meandering jet stream.

Together, the warm and cold events form the El Niño - Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and cause most of the fluctuations in global weather we see from one year to the next.

What is of interest, instead, is whether centuries - long intervals can be found over which warm events or cold events tend to cluster.

The disparaging numbers you pointed out, between the noted cold events and the number of high heat events are one of the most telling observations we have as an indicator of GW.

However, a major sudden cold event did probably occur under global climate conditions similar to those of the present, during the Eemian interglacial, around 122,000 years ago.

Furthermore, it has yet to be demonstrated how a short - lived event, such as a bolide impact (or abrupt Arctic meltwater discharge, i.e., Tarasov and Peltier, 2005), can force a millennia - long cold event when state - of - the - art climate models require a continuous freshwater forcing for the duration of the AMOC reduction (e.g., Liu et al., 2009).

In any case, this appears to be a pretty long - duration cold event, as the GFS / ECMWF ensembles keep a very cold and dry pattern entrenched for the next 8 - 9 days at least.

These wet phases may correspond to the North Atlantic Bond cold events 2, 1 and 0, respectively (Bond et al., 2001).

Cold events contributed to, and extended, the «grand hiatus» from 1945 - 1975 (which is also related to the cooling caused by particulate pollution).

«In the Bering Sea, the transition between the YD [Younger Dryas]- like cold event and the Early Holocene is marked by the rapid disappearance of IP25 [sea ice] around 11.5 ka [11,500 years ago] in both cores from the Bering Sea.

NOAA also downplayed cold temperature bleaching stating the 2010 cold event just «resulted in some coral death.»

Parmesan and her colleagues argued that CO2 warming had triggered cold events, which disrupted the «synchrony» between the weather, the butterflies and their food plants.

Wild thyme (Thymus vulgaris) in France has evolved in response to fewer extreme cold events since the 1970s, producing more pungent oils to deter herbivores (at the cost of becoming less cold - hardy).

How is it there are such anomalous cold events on an ever rapidly warming planet?
