Calculations of annually and
globally averaged conditions show that the earth's surface has a net radiation surplus, while the atmosphere comes up short.
Not exact matches
It is worth noting that, in the absence of convection, pure greenhouse warming would lead to a
globally averaged surface temperature of 72 °C given current
conditions.
Such
globally averaged time series are not necessarily representative of local
conditions: for example, Canada and Siberia have warmed much more rapidly during the past 20 years than indicated in Figure 2.1, while parts of the high latitude North Atlantic and North Pacific regions have cooled slightly.
