Sentences with phrase «effect on temperature»

-LSB-...] The author poses what he calls the «major question»: why does CO2 have no significant effect on temperatures in the real world?

So far, we see little proven effect on temperature from recent rising CO2.

The reason is that neither scenario works out quite like that at all because the radiative characteristics of molecules have NO effect on the temperature that the atmosphere will reach.

Because of differences in vertical or horizontal distribution of forcings, some changes can have a more than proportional effect on temperatures.

The problem is that the rate of emissions has no direct effect on temperature; it is the accumulated level in the atmosphere that creates a radiative imbalance that causes temperature to rise.

How much will water vapour be reduced and what will be the resulting effect on temperature?

As for it's other effects, the jury is still out as to whether it has any more than a trivial effect on temperatures.

The BEST paper reported on here focuses on urban effects on the temperature record.

CO2 emissions have only a tiny effect on temperatures, but strongly enhance plant growth.

I think it very probable that relatively small changes in the amount of carbon dioxide or ozone in the atmosphere, may have considerable effect on the temperature conditions of the earth.

Human - caused emissions of (CO2) constitute a very minor part of total CO2 emissions, which have been shown not to have significant effects on temperatures.

Because of differences in vertical or horizontal distribution of forcings, some changes can have a more than proportional effect on temperatures.

The referenced papers, in my opinion, do not prove that the increase in radiative forcing has been sufficient to have any measureable effect on temperature change as recorded since 1880.

This means that a change of 40 - 50 ppmv of CO2 has no measurable effect on temperature... That doesn't mean that there is no effect at all, but it is smaller than implemented in current models.

Perhaps the major question is why CO2 has no significant effect on temperatures in the real world, in which case CO2 and ECS are largely irrelevant.

Secondary effects on temperature as a result of prolonged solar activity I think will be the following:

And as this knowledge is disseminated and better understood, eventually we'll have better models, and can achieve more widespread adoption of them - if the solar / cosmic ray / cloud mechanism is significant it could explain why temperatures in neither hemisphere are proceeding upwards lock - step with IPCC forecasts - and opening the door for a more accurate and widespread acknowledgement of CO2 effects on temperature and climate.

If co2 traps or reflects heat from the earths surface then it must also reflect or trap heat radiated from the sun in equal amounts, thereby resulting in a zero overall effect on temperature at the earths surface, not taking into account water vapour and other demonic gasses.

Implication 2) The many weeks where the SP has less insolation than PHX has a significant effect on temperature differences between the two places.

Answer: Urban Heat Island Effect has been examined quite thoroughly (PDF) and found to have a negligible effect on temperature trends.

8 21.1 Factors That Affect Climate Water Bodies • Large bodies of water such as lakes and oceans have an important effect on the temperature of an area because the temperature of the water body influences the temperature of the air above it.

Therefore, they concluded that poor siting did not have much effect on the temperature trends.

I still have seen no proof that the current level of atmospheric CO2 has any measureable effect on temperature readings.

They certainly have large short - term effects on temperatures on the order of a couple of tenths of a degree, but nowhere near as large as McLean seems to believe.

The «accident of history» is that the more efficient forcings happen to be those that have had a cooling effect on temperatures in recent decades, while the less efficient forcings happen to be those that have caused warming.

Its method assumes that estimating the carbon drawdown gives a reasonable estimate of the overall effect on temperatures, and treats low and high - latitude forests equally.

As we've documented here at the ENSO Blog, these patterns have their own distinct effects on temperature and precipitation patterns, and attributing weather events to climate patterns is a complicated science.

This includes dramatic changes seen in Arctic sea ice and the knock - on effect on temperatures elsewhere in northern latitudes — both warming and relative cooling.
