a feedback cycle between scientific funding and scientific alarm.

Proposed explanations for the discrepancy include ocean — atmosphere coupling that is too weak in models, insufficient energy cascades from smaller to larger spatial and temporal scales, or that global climate models do not consider slow climate
feedbacks related to the carbon

between ice sheets and climate.
Further research will be required to investigate if this fluctuation carries features of projected future climate change and the CO2 growth rate anomaly has been a first indicator of a developing positive

Differences
between high and low projections in climate models used by the IPCC stem mainly from uncertainties over

The reason for a reduced CO2 rate of rise was probably not due to a reduction in emission rates, but it may have reflected carbon
cycle feedbacks that slightly altered the balance
between atmospheric CO2 and terrestrial and oceanic sinks.

Cycle group studies the physical and chemical land surface processes and interactions and
feedbacks between atmosphere, biosphere and hydrosphere.
A recent study by C10 analysed a number of different climate variables in a set of SMEs of HadCM3 (Gordon et al. 2000, atmosphere — ocean coupled version of HadSM3) from the point of view of global - scale model errors and climate change forcings and
feedbacks, and compared them with variables derived from the CMIP3 MME. Knutti et al. (2006) examined another SME based on the HadSM3 model, and found a strong relationship
between the magnitude of the seasonal
cycle and climate sensitivity, which was not reproduced in the CMIP3 ensemble.
I suppose the battle - lines here are drawn
between on the one - hand those who believe in either significant natural
feedbacks impacting the carbon
cycle as - we - speak or who believe today's mitigation measures are useless, and on the other - hand those who would welcome some signs of a weakening of the accelerating CO2 - rise as this would encourage more mitigation actions (and less hand - wringing) and who consider CO2 emissions reporting is more than «fluff».
By including fast carbon
cycle feedbacks, the team showed that 3 C could possibly reverse the sign of net carbon flows
between atmosphere and land.
By investigating earlier, natural CO2 variations, we expect to obtain information about

In terms of greenhouse agents, the main conclusions from the WGI FAR Policymakers Summary are still valid today: (1) «emissions resulting from human activities are substantially increasing the atmospheric concentrations of the greenhouse gases: CO2, CH4, CFCs, N2O»; (2) «some gases are potentially more effective (at greenhouse warming)»; (3)
feedbacks between the carbon
cycle, ecosystems and atmospheric greenhouse gases in a warmer world will affect CO2 abundances; and (4) GWPs provide a metric for comparing the climatic impact of different greenhouse gases, one that integrates both the radiative influence and biogeochemical
cycles.

Basically, if such a bidirectional relationship can be established
between two kinds of variables this means that they may enter into a self - generating «vicious
cycle» where increases in the one variable lead to increases in the other, and vice versa — a process that can be described in terms of a dynamic system, where internal
feedback processes lead to the emergence and stabilization of pathological patterns.
