[Response: I pointed it out mainly so that you'd notice the comparisons (i.e. figures 3,4 and 5) which
all have spatial patterns derived from the proxy reconstructions.
The simulated change of GM in the last 30 yr
has a spatial pattern that differs from that during the Medieval Warm Period, suggesting that global warming that arises from the increases of greenhouse gases and the input solar forcing may have different effects on the characteristics of GM precipitation.

In a second step, we apply the method to reconstructing 2 -
D sea level data over 1950 — 2003, combining sparse tide gauge records available since 1950, with EOF
spatial patterns from different sources: (1) thermosteric sea level grids over 1955 — 2003, (2) sea level grids from Topex / Poseidon satellite altimetry over 1993 — 2003, and (3) dynamic height grids from the SODA reanalysis over 1958 — 2001.

But, on the basis of studies of nonlinear chaotic models with preferred states or «regimes», it

I
have published a number of studies on the value of using some simple metrics of the
spatial patterns of global temperature change, rather than just global mean temperature change.
Having done that, I think we could perhaps begin to look at the spatial pattern of those sites, and get some good insights into why temperature is having such different effects on growth in different p

We provide a list of issues that need to be addressed to make inferences more defensible, including the consideration of (i) data limitations and the comparability of data sets; (ii) alternative mechanisms for change; (iii) appropriate response variables; (iv) a suitable model for the process under study; (
v) temporal autocorrelation; (vi)
spatial autocorrelation and

having last freeze and first leaf dates progressing at about the same pace, while in portions of Northern and Eastern Europe first leaf dates are getting earlier faster than last freeze dates
But it seemed pretty obvious to me that LU forcing might well
have been omitted, and both straightforward regression analysis and comparison of the
spatial patterns pointed to its omission being a near certainty.
When I responded to the RealClimate article, here, I inter alia presented further evidence that LU forcing hadn't been included in the computed value of the total forcing applied in the Historical simulation: there was virtually no trace of LU forcing in the
spatial pattern for Historical forcing.
The analysis of teleconnections
has typically employed a linear perspective, which assumes a basic

For those forcings that
have been included in attribution analyses, uncertainties associated with the temporal and
spatial pattern of the forcing and the modelled response can affect the results.
Assuming the
spatial patterns of the warming shown by the GISS LOTI data are close to being correct, then the differences with the lower troposphere data appear to show that lower troposphere temperature data

A top - down climate effect that shows long - term drift (and may also be out of phase with the bottom - up solar forcing)

spatial response
patterns and
would mean that climate - chemistry models that
have sufficient resolution in the stratosphere

It
has been shown that the PDO SST
spatial patterns and pressure
pattern changes influence ENSO especially over the last 3 years, the influence of the Aleutian Low on the PDO metrics is also interesting.
By examining the
spatial pattern of both types of climate variation, the scientists found that the anthropogenic global warming signal was relatively spatially uniform over the tropical oceans and thus
would not
have a large effect on the atmospheric circulation, whereas the PDO shift in the 1990s consisted of warming in the tropical west Pacific and cooling in the subtropical and east tropical Pacific, which
would enhance the existing sea surface temperature difference and thus intensify the circulation.
Geoff Sharp says: «It
has been shown that the PDO SST

The SOI

If you looked at other periods in a computer run with similar warming trends
would they all

This study shows that the coupled climate models
have mixed results in reproducing the
spatial and temporal characteristics of major observed Pacific climate
patterns of variability (e.g., the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and El Niño).
This doesn't affect your results, but I think you
have your terminology switched around: The term «eof» refers to the loading (which is usually a
spatial pattern in these analyses), and «pc» can mean either the time - series or the combination of time - series + eof.
There is new information that lack of sea ice causes storms to produce larger waves and more coastal erosion.5 An additional contributing factor is that coastal bluffs that were «cemented» by permafrost are beginning to thaw in response to warmer air and ocean waters, and are therefore more vulnerable to erosion.22 Standard defensive adaptation strategies to protect coastal communities from erosion such as use of rock walls, sandbags, and riprap
have been largely unsuccessful.23 There remains considerable uncertainty, however, about the
spatial patterns of future coastal erosion.
Applied to an average GCM from the AR4, the smallest

has emerged in the recent 15 years and is not reproduced by the models.
One aspect of Roy Spencer's work is that internal random oscillations of things like surface ocean temperature
spatial patterns (affected by winds) which can affect clouds could
have a forcing effect that could easily be mistaken for climate sensitivity to external forcing.
