Sentences with phrase «current mean global temperature»

(d) Cowtan & Way (2013); England et al. (2014); Santer et al (2014); and Rosenfeld (2014); all provide solid evidence that the current mean global temperature has been masked by such causes as: limited data; the negative phase of the PDO cycle; volcanoes, and aerosols, respectively.

Because the long - term warming trends are highly significant relative to our estimates of the magnitude of natural variability, the current decadal period of stable global mean temperature does nothing to alter a fundamental conclusion from the AR4: warming has unequivocally been observed and documented.

Our current «best guess» is that the global mean changes in temperature (including the 1940 - 1970 cooling) are actually quite closely related to the forcings.

We still don't expect each year to be warmer than the last due to the intrinsic variability («weather») in global mean temperature (around 0.1 to 0.2 °C), but at the current rate of global warming (~ 0.17 °C / decade), new records can be expected relatively frequently.

Yes Wilt, the «global mean temperature anomaly ceased increasing» (in) the mid nineties, just as it did in the mid-every-decade since 1900, but «ceased increasing BY...» implies that it never resumed increasing, maybe you need a longer term view — or maybe we'll be fine because we can assume from the trend a «ceasation of increase» by the middle of the current decade?

-- What's the mean avg growth in global CO2 and CO2e last year and over the prior ~ 5 years — What's the current global surface temperature anomaly in the last year and in prior ~ 5 years — project that mean avg growth in CO2 / CO2e ppm increasing at the same rate for another decade, and then to 2050 and to 2075 (or some other set of years)-- then using the best available latest GCM / s (pick and stick) for each year or quarter update and calculate the «likely» global surface temperature anomaly into the out years — all things being equal and not assuming any «fictional» scenarios in any RCPs or Paris accord of some massive shift in projected FF / Cement use until such times as they are a reality and actually operating and actually seen slowing CO2 ppm growth.

why don't you compare the IPCC 2001 global temperature rise predictions to current global means (year averages or rolling averages — whatever you want).

This despite the fact that such a «forcing» should have, according to the current paradigm, lead to global mean temperatures about 68 degrees colder than the present, which would have lead to a completely frozen Earth, with the mean temperature at about 54 degrees below the freezing point of water.

Clearly, models that could pass the Anagnostopoulos 2010 test would be better models, but that doesn't mean that the current models aren't skillful at predicting or hindcasting global temperature trends.

The Marcott et al. conclusions that «Current global temperatures of the past decade... are warmer than during ~ 75 % of the Holocene temperature history» and «Global mean temperature for the decade 2000 - 20global temperatures of the past decade... are warmer than during ~ 75 % of the Holocene temperature history» and «Global mean temperature for the decade 2000 - 20Global mean temperature for the decade 2000 - 2009....

He evidently is not too literate in global warming theory either because he tries to explain the current non-warming period by saying that the ``... current stand - still of the 5 - year running mean global temperature may be largely a consequence of the fact that the first half of the past 10 years had predominantly El Nino conditions, and the second half had predominantly La Nina conditions.»

Geologist Dr. David Deming: «If the current cooling trend continues, the theory of global warming faces imminent extinction» — Deming: «The mean global temperature has not risen in 17 years and has been slowly falling for approximately the past 10 years» — «Falling temperatures are giving climate alarmists chills»

The current day energy input is μ = 1 with a global mean temperature of 287.7 degrees Kelvin.

According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, these stabilization targets are consistent with keeping eventual mean projected global warming to about 1.5 oC and 2.5 oC above current levels, respectively (this would be on top of temperatures rises of about 0.75 oC over the last century).

I say the current global mean temperature record for 1998 for hadcrut3 will not be exceeded in the next three years (2012, 2013 & 2014).

Some 210 million years ago, the CO2 level is estimated to have been 5 times the current level, and the mean global temperature was estimated to have been 5 C warmer than now (20 C compared to 15 C assumed as today's global mean temperature).

In the current environment warmer temperatures in Arctic stations are being extended over a wide area to imply a higher global mean.

We consider several important climate impacts and use evidence from current observations to assess the effect of 0.8 °C warming and paleoclimate data for the effect of larger warming, especially the Eemian period, which had global mean temperature about +2 °C relative to pre-industrial time.

(A) What is causing the current flatline in global mean temperature?

For Europe, only minor biome - level shifts are projected for Mediterranean vegetation types (Parry, 2000), contrasting with between 60 and 80 % of current species projected not to persist in the southern European Mediterranean region (global mean temperature increase of 1.8 °C — Bakkenes et al., 2002).

Ross — with respect, what do you feel the correct null hypothesis is for current global mean temperature and it's change over the industrial era?

Human activities, such as the release of greenhouse gases from burning fossil fuels, are major factors in the current rise in Earth's mean surface temperature (global warming).

Given current emissions trajectories, there is a chance that the temperature increase by 2100 could be near 6oC.21 The last time Earth exhibited a global mean temperature that high, what are now sagebrush grasslands in the southwestern Wyoming and Utah were covered by subtropical, closed canopy forests interspersed with open woodlands (Townsend et al., 2010), reminiscent of subtropical areas in Central America today.

After all, even the EPA's own lawyers, non-scientist professional bureaucratic infighters that they are, seem to recognize that if Mother Nature could, in pre-industrial times, raise the earth's global mean temperature to levels approaching today's levels — but without the benefit of having that additional 100 ppm of atmospheric CO2 with which to force the increase — then key parts of current AGW theory can be called into question, even the climate prediction models.

And I'm not sure how you can say that their predictions of the current global mean temperature are not of importance to the predictions that matter.

«The current cooling trend in global mean temperature has amounted only to about 0.1 Co per decade since its initiation in the mid-1940s.»

Climate models provide a means to derive such a link, under the assumption that the current generation of climate models captures the essence of the signature of oceanic variability on the global mean temperature.

Here is what the current global mean temperature anomaly trend would look like.

Note that regional mean anomalies (in particular global anomalies) are not computed from the current absolute mean and the 1951 - 80 mean for that region, but from station temperature anomalies.

Although the surface temperature prescription is limited to only 8.2 % of the global surface, our model reproduces the annual - mean global temperature remarkably well with correlation coefficient r = 0.97 for 1970 — 2012 (which includes the current hiatus and a period of accelerated global warming).

Hence, we can now combine those 18 years when global mean temperature was constant with the current hiatus and find that the last 33 years have been entirely greenhouse free.

So I strongly encourage you to look at the evidence of current impacts (e.g. impacts as described in IPCC WG2, US National Climate Assessment, etc.), rather than apparently dismissing global mean temperature changes to date just because the number looks small.
