The empirical evidence continues to build within the climate science community that the world is experiencing some type of global cooling phase as a result of natural climate change forces.

Of specific interest was how the waste form behaved both during the initial cooling phase and over the thousands of years the waste would be stored.

Ever since, the glacial peaks have been 100,000 years apart, and the Earth system has spent more time in cool phases than before.

A pattern emerging from recent paleoclimatologic studies suggests that the climatic effects of eccentricity, precession, and axial tilt have been amplified during cool phases of the Cenozoic, whereas they have been dampened during warm phases.

• Suppression of the second cooling phase starting in 1995.

Variations in how the Earth is tilted and its orbit around the sun make for a pattern of planetary warming phases followed by cooling phases across the millennia.

Atmospheric surface temps have been used and marketed since the end of the last global cooling phase from 1945 - 1976 and explicitly through the 1990 ′ s as the definitive measure of «theorised» human - induced (anthropogenic) global warming.

«This multi-year Pacific Decadal Oscillation «cool» trend can cause La Niña - like impacts around the Pacific basin,» said Bill Patzert, an oceanographer and climatologist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. «The present cool phase of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation will have significant implications for shifts in marine ecosystems, and for land temperature and rainfall patterns around the Pacific basin.»

The meridional cool phase occurring from the 1940s to 1970s and 1990s to present consists of equatorward winds over the continents and poleward winds over the subarctic and sub-antarctic oceans, resulting as Rossby wave formations.

Nor is anyone informed that during an earlier cool phase of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, the droughts of the 1950s brought even less precipitation to the region, yet there was still greater river flow and less damage to the bay's fisheries.

I was wondering on the grander scale how the oscillations work when we finally enter the rapid cooling phase?

Septic Matthew — if increased atmospheric CO2 since 1988 were having no effect, given all the talk of natural cooling phases, wouldn't the global mean temperature be on a distinct downward tack?

Since the end of last El Niño warming event of 1997 to 1998, the tropical Pacific Ocean has been in a relatively cool phase — strong enough to offset the warming created by greenhouse gas emissions.

Cool phase Pacific Decadal Oscillation winters are generally wetter and colder.

When the human - caused buildup of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases got into high gear in the last century, the Arctic was two - thirds of the way through what should be a 12,000 - year cooling phase driven by orbital conditions (resulting in Arctic latitudes in summer getting a diminishing amount of solar heating).

Some highlights: Over part of the past year, the Pacific was in its cyclical cool phase, called La Niña; the Arctic remained far warmer than usual for recent decades.

Instead a very powerful cool phase of the pattern known as PDO is developing.

After 1940 there is another AMO explicable cooling phase that is always explained away by a magical process involving the increase in light reflecting aerosols.

Whatever the case, most geologists and paleontologists designate the beginning of a new epoch — the Holocene — at approximately 11,700 years ago, a time coincident with the sudden ending of the Younger Dryas cool phase.

If the slower cooling phase is still evident (as there is more CO2 in the atmosphere during the peak of the warm cycle which should keep temperatures warmer for longer) then this should constitute empirical evidence for CO2's effects on the climate.

As for the Milankovitch cycles, we should be in a gentle cooling phase of the cycle, not a rapid warming phase.
