(2006).

The van der Rohe jury thought as much, commending the Hall's design for finding «a convincing formal and spatial strategy for a city which strives for a better future in a fast - changing economy and social patterns, delivering a dignity to urban life and the same time enhancing the city's specific historical identity with a contemporary monument.»

Other studies found improvement in hand - eye coordination, pattern discrimination, reaction time, and spatial visualization abilities.

Using the known amplification of the solar cycle (and presumably the long term trend) in the UV band, allowing stratospheric temperatures and circulation patterns to adjust and including the direct radiative forcings from the sun and volcanoes, we found that it gave temperature anomalies and spatial patterns that were in fair agreement with the observations (Shindell et al, 2003).

By examining the spatial pattern of both types of climate variation, the scientists found that the anthropogenic global warming signal was relatively spatially uniform over the tropical oceans and thus would not have a large effect on the atmospheric circulation, whereas the PDO shift in the 1990s consisted of warming in the tropical west Pacific and cooling in the subtropical and east tropical Pacific, which would enhance the existing sea surface temperature difference and thus intensify the circulation.

Unlike the case for plants, no spatial patterns were found for animal remains, likely due the animals» more vagile and ubiquitous distribution.

The spatial pattern in skeletal growth rates and partial mortality scars found in massive Porites sp. across the central and northern islands suggests that corals subject to larger year - to - year fluctuations in maximum ocean temperature were more resistant to a 2004 warm - water event.

However, because only large - scale, first - order patterns are reconstructed, similar patterns of spatial / temporal covariance are found in the station data alone (otherwise, there would be very little skill in the reconstruction).

Because some ecosystems and perturbation types operate on different spatial and temporal scales, we looked at each variable type by each perturbation and ecosystem type separately and still found no patterns.

They also find that the primary contribution to storm surges in the region are sea surface height anomalies from the Pacific, with local wind patterns causing small spatial differences in the sea surface height.

Matt Skaggs writes: «I have seen two spatial pattern claims about GHG warming, 1) the troposphere should warm more quickly, and 2) the poles should warm more quickly... I was unable to find a single instance where any of the feedbacks thought to enhance warming in specific locations were associated solely with CO2... I can not make the dots connect.»

We find that over a wide range of values of diapycnal diffusivity and Southern Ocean winds, and with a variety of changes in surface boundary conditions, the spatial patterns of ocean temperature anomaly are nearly always determined as much or more by the existing heat reservoir redistribution than by the nearly passive uptake of temperature due to changes in the surface boundary conditions.
