All the other habits of composition that Ford attributes to Whitehead rest
on the two
attributions we have just put into question; for we are told that the insertions of later writings into
earlier ones, and the overall arrangements of writings in a given book, are meant to induce readers to disregard passages conveying abandoned doctrines or positions or, if the doctrines and positions are kept in modified form, to reinterpret them in terms of their final or mature formulations.
Luke is a post is a postdoctoral researcher working
on the MaRIUS and TITAN projects, using weather@home simulations and other event
attribution methodologies to investigate the drivers of extreme weather events from the
early 20th century.
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Sotheby's auction house sold Frans Hals's Portrait of Man for $ 10m in 2011, a work which rival Christie's had passed
on because its experts were not satisfied with the provenance and
attribution.
For the entire Northern Hemisphere, there is evidence of an increase in both storm frequency and intensity during the cold season since 1950,1 with storm tracks having shifted slightly towards the poles.2, 3 Extremely heavy snowstorms increased in number during the last century in northern and eastern parts of the United States, but have been less frequent since 2000.11,15 Total seasonal snowfall has generally decreased in southern and some western areas, 16 increased in the northern Great Plains and Great Lakes region, 16,17 and not changed in other areas, such as the Sierra Nevada, although snow is melting
earlier in the year and more precipitation is falling as rain versus snow.18 Very snowy winters have generally been decreasing in frequency in most regions over the last 10 to 20 years, although the Northeast has been seeing a normal number of such winters.19 Heavier - than - normal snowfalls recently observed in the Midwest and Northeast U.S. in some years, with little snow in other years, are consistent with indications of increased blocking (a large scale pressure pattern with little or no movement) of the wintertime circulation of the Northern Hemisphere.5 However, conclusions about trends in blocking have been found to depend
on the method of analysis, 6 so the assessment and
attribution of trends in blocking remains an active research area.
In an

Climateprediction.net «s Dr Friederike Otto presented

You say you need convincing that a «dogma» does not exist yet all you have thrived
on to convince yourself it does exist is vague and broad attacks with a (with all due respect to your CV) a rather poor understanding of basic aspects of the science (such as the relevance of
early 20th century
attribution to modern day warming).
«The assessment is supported additionally by a complementary analysis in which the parameters of an Earth System Model of Intermediate Complexity (EMIC) were constrained using observations of near - surface temperature and ocean heat content, as well as prior information
on the magnitudes of forcings, and which concluded that GHGs have caused 0.6 °C to 1.1 °C (5 to 95 % uncertainty) warming since the mid-20th century (Huber and Knutti, 2011); an analysis by Wigley and Santer (2013), who used an energy balance model and RF and climate sensitivity estimates from AR4, and they concluded that there was about a 93 % chance that GHGs caused a warming greater than observed over the 1950 — 2005 period; and
earlier detection and
attribution studies assessed in the AR4 (Hegerl et al., 2007b).»
In summary, the models all agree
on the
attribution of warming in the latter half of the 20th century, but do not agree
on the causal factors for the
early century warming and the mid-century cooling.
