Sentences with phrase «expected a warming stratosphere»

ii) They were probably confused by the observation of a cooling stratosphere whilst the sun was more active when the established ideas would have expected a warming stratosphere from a more active sun.

Not exact matches

When putting this in context with the recent global warming, then there seems to be some sticky points, namely that one would expect that an intensification in the UV emission (due to a more active sun) would result in a warmer stratosphere — not?

Since 1995, there has been no cooling of the lower stratosphere but no real warming which one would expect due to the rebound of ozone.

In the absence of ozone, added atmospheric CO2 would be expected to warm the stratosphere slightly rather than cool it.

In essence, the stratosphere warms, while the radiating temperature remains constant if there is no spectral shift, and declines if there is (as one would expect to happen).

The troposphere doesn't exhibit a hot spot, the stratosphere isn't cooling, the oceans are not accumulating heat, the warming has been 40 % of that expected, and the models are inching close to falsification.

Indeed that poleward shift was supposed to be accompanied by a tropospheric hot spot as the enhanced upward energy flux was then constrained by extra GHGs so that the «surplus» energy was retained in the troposphere and thereby denied to the stratosphere which then cooled as per observations and despite the «normal» warming of the stratosphere that would otherwise have been expected from the highly active sun at the time.

In addition, if the warming had been caused by an increase in the Sun's energy, we would expect to see warming throughout the layers of the atmosphere, from the surface all the way up through the stratosphere.

One might expect from a simplistic view of the atmosphere that this would make the stratosphere warmer and troposphere cooler.

«A second smoking gun is that if the sun were responsible for global warming, we would expect to see warming throughout all layers of the atmosphere, from the surface all the way up to the upper atmosphere (stratosphere).

Cooling temperatures in the stratosphere are expected in a world that is warming due to the buildup in greenhouse gases, as more heat is trapped in the lower atmosphere.

The layers above the stratosphere are expected to cool as a result of global warming as well, for similar reasons (less heat reaching higher levels as it's trapped in the lower atmosphere).

If a more active sun were to warm the stratosphere I would expect to see a negative AO from an intensified inversion at the tropopause with more equatorward jets and not a positive AO with more poleward jets.

Their conclusions: [2] Increasing concentrations of anthropogenic greenhouse gases, especially CO2, are expected to warm the troposphere and cool the stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere.

Physically, one could expect a slight decrease in surface evaporation (a «dimming» effect) and related changes to precipitation, a warming of the tropopause and lower stratosphere (and changes in static stability), increased Eurasian «winter warming» effects (related to shifts in the wind patterns as are seen in the aftermath ofvolcanoes).
