They did not know how large this effect could be, however, because there were no instruments that could measure these changes on a global scale.

These historical milking grounds can also be used to study the effects of plant community changes on carbon storage over large time scales.

These analyses are intended to provide policymakers with an evidence base on tenure policy effects as well as potential areas for improved communication and support for school - based staff in the event of large - scale policy change.

Much of Mike's work supports school and district leaders in planning and implementing large - scale improvement initiatives, visioning, understanding change and its effect on people, evaluating school improvement progress, designing exceptional professional development, and engaging people in productive, relationship - rich, results - based conversations.

The paper he wrote together with Friis - Christensen in which he found a correlation between solar activity and clouds had a «slight» flaw: it ignored that the period of the study coincided with a big El Nino, and that large scale changes in ocean surface temperature are going to have an effect on cloud formation.

Refraction, specifically the real component of refraction n (describes bending of rays, wavelength changes relative to a vacuum, affects blackbody fluxes and intensities — as opposed to the imaginary component, which is related to absorption and emission) is relatively unimportant to shaping radiant fluxes through the atmosphere on Earth (except on the small scale processes where it (along with difraction, reflection) gives rise to scattering, particularly of solar radiation — in that case, the effect on the larger scale can be described by scattering properties, the emergent behavior).

«Warming of the oceans... affecting... large - scale climate patterns... however, due to the long time scales of ocean dynamics... and the relatively short length of observational data... the effects of those changes on catastrophic risk... unclear.»

The question is whether or not the change in the amounts of Co2 is large enough on scale to have the claimed effect outside of other observations because the raw physics equation doesn't side with observations.

Widespread networks of observers are especially well - suited to detecting global change — shifts in weather patterns; movements in the ranges of species; large - scale transformations of eco-systems — and that, unfortunately, is something we will need to know far more about if we are to mitigate and adapt to the fateful effects we are having on the planet.
