Sentences with phrase «decades global sea surface temperature»

Not exact matches

Evidence from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) shows that global sea levels in the last two decades are rising dramatically as surface temperatures warm oceans and...
The higher sea surface temperatures in the tropics (~ 0.85 K / decade in recent decades) have lead to an increase in LW (infrared) radiation, and a loss to space of some 3 W / m2 all over the tropics (50 % of the surface), which more than halves the — theoretical — global influence (~ 2.4 W / m2) of all extra GHGs together since the start of the industrial revolution.
We might expect «global warming» (i.e., an increase in average surface air temperatures over a few decades) to lead to a rise in global mean sea levels.
However, it has been hypothesized that warmer global sea surface temperatures can enhance the El Niño phenomenon, and it is also true that El Niños have been more frequent and intense in recent decades.
3) In my comment https://judithcurry.com/2011/08/04/carbon-cycle-questions/#comment-198992 I have explained that during recent three decades the increase of CO2 content in atmosphere is controlled by the rising temperature of global sea surface.
Bob Tisdale says, «They increased the trend of the global sea surface temperature anomalies from 0.088 degrees Celsius per decade to 0.125 degrees Celsius per decade or about 42 %.
Knowing that global atmospheric temperatures are a lagged response to sea surface temperatures, characterized by the SOI, and that the SOI has moderated over the past decade, indicates that global warming will moderate as well.
To me it looks like this shift will be the «team's» new tactic to keep the notion of global warming alive, especially if the pause in warming (or even slight cooling) of the «globally and annually averaged land and sea surface temperature» lasts another few decades.
It shows the global average surface temperature (land and sea) for each decade since 1880, and the dotted line shows what the 30 - year average was from 1961 - 1990.
Over the past three decades, changes in [CO2] have increased global average temperatures (approx. 0.2 °C decade − 1 [2]-RRB-, with much of the additional energy absorbed by the world's oceans causing a 0.8 °C rise in sea surface temperature over the past century.
