Sentences with phrase «consistently on the upward trend»

Not exact matches

After over a year of sideways and downward movement from late 2015 through early 2017, the most recent NASA report shows that over the past year an acceleration in sea level rise has become visible on the NASA graph, even with just a quick glance (then again, while the long term trend is consistently upward, the annual trend is so variable, that it's likely foolish on my part to suggest a change in trend based on the most recent periods of increase which have only been occurring for less than 12 months).

Nor can anybody insisting on a distinct 1945 - 1970 trend consistently insist on a requirement of statistical significance for both the upward and downward trends for the 1940s spike.
