Here's a better idea for this
so - called «governor» to consider: Take a look at the research done by your alma mater, Texas A&M, on global

so strong, she said, that if Earth continues to
warm at the current rate, the LC50 for one species she
has studied, fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas), will be only half as much in 2060 as it is now.
Since
so much of the ice sheet is grounded underwater, rising sea levels may
have the
effect of lifting the sheets, allowing more - and increasingly
warmer - water underneath it, leading to further bottom melting, more ice shelf disintegration, accelerated glacial flow, and further sea level rise, and
so on and on, another vicious cycle.
But if
so, where is the «missing heat» (Trenberth) or «global
warming still in the pipeline» (Hansen)-- heat storage in the ocean, whose first
effect would be an increasing SLR from thermal expansion?
It's now commonplace to talk about global

so that it's easy to forget that until quite recently few thought it was even possible that the actions of our species could
have a potentially catastrophic
effect on the Earth's climate.
Also, highland regions at the equator
would get colder and northern low - lying regions
would get
warmer; this is the
so - called «icy highlands
effect,» which results in the peaks of mountains on Earth being snow - covered.
«From a policy perspective, we
have to recognize that we
have been trending toward drier conditions over the last 1,500 years and the
warming in Nevada is only going to exacerbate that trend,» he said, noting that «
warmer temperatures cause more soil moisture to evaporate
so you amplify the
effects of drought when climate is
warming.
Is there a top end to the
warming trend where we

The weather in Vancouver is a lot colder than it was in London,
so I
've been playing with some
warm ideas, like layering this bralette top from the Dynamite Spring collection over a button down for a colorblock
effect and pairing it with my favorite leather jacket as of late (and I'm realizing it's almost a full Dynamite look)
And I thought leather also
had a temperature regulating
effect,
so you should not be too
warm, right?

Last I saw from NOAA was global
warming decreasing numbers but increasing intensities: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/05/080519134306.htm However the methods and equipment for measuring occurences and intensity
have improved
so much that we're not exactly comparing apples to apples when we calibrate today's numbers with 70 years ago to quantify a correlation, it's
effect, and provide a projection.
Research by an international team of scientists recently published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters says that the cooling

So, if you
have two identical glass greenhouses with thermally isolated mercury thermometers at equilibrium in the sunlight [One with Air at Press =P, and the 2nd w / CO2 at Press =P], and you close the blinds — you will see the thermometer in the CO2 greenhouse retain its temperature longer — not because of any «global
warming» type
effect, but simply because Air conducts heat to the walls of the greenhouse better than Air does.
Paradoxically temperatures in the middle troposphere (400 mb)
have been falling, perhaps reflecting a combination of
effects, like surface
warming, drier middle altitudes, lower solar influence and
so on?
The immediately quantifiable

Building cities along coastlines as we
have throughout our
so - far short modern history, short though it
has been from the standpoint of our climate history, should be recognized as the kind of short term planning that

warming is just one of a multitude of possible planet - affecting scenarios that could
have devastating
effects on our world's societies.
So in the case of global
warming just like many other cases, I
would indeed say that if the economic and quasi-economic rules of journalism dictate that a complex story shouldn't be covered, indeed, «global
warming» shouldn't be covered because it is one of the very complex systems on Earth influenced by very many complex
effects and their relationships.
In this regard, I
would observe that at least one important AGW
effect, rising sea level, does not depend on a specific regional outcome
so much as on global mean T. (At least, I think this is
so (because my understanding is that most of the rise comes from lower density of
warmer water, not from melting ice sheets — though again, not 100 % sure on this point)-RRB-.
This
would actually not be true at sufficiently high latitudes in the winter hemisphere, except that some circulation in the upper atmosphere is driven by kinetic energy generated within the troposphere (small amount of energy involved) which,
so far as I know, doesn't result in much of a global time average non-radiative energy flux above the tropopause, but it does
have important regional
effects, and the result is that the top of the stratosphere is
warmer than the tropopause at all latitudes in all seasons
so far as I know.
So, the question of whether or not more of these clouds
would be formed, along with the question of their net
effect (given that they reflect sunlight from above, but also trap heat from below), gives rise to some degree of imprecision when it comes to the degree of
warming predicted by models.
So a lack of volcanic activity must
have the opposite
effect, and result in
warming.
Your estimates of climate sensitivity come from the IPCC, which assumes that aerosols will continue to provide a very strong cooling
effect that offsets about half of the
warming from CO2, but you are talking about time frames in which we
have stopped burning fossil fuels,
so is it appropriate to continue to assume the presence of cooling aerosols at these future times?
Re 9 wili — I know of a paper suggesting, as I recall, that enhanced «backradiation» (downward radiation reaching the surface emitted by the air / clouds) contributed more to Arctic amplification specifically in the cold part of the year (just to be clear, backradiation should generally increase with any
warming (aside from greenhouse feedbacks) and more
so with a
warming due to an increase in the greenhouse
effect (including feedbacks like water vapor and, if positive, clouds, though regional changes in water vapor and clouds can go against the global trend); otherwise it was always my understanding that the albedo feedback was key (while sea ice decreases
so far
have been more a summer phenomenon (when it
would be
warmer to begin with), the heat capacity of the sea prevents much temperature response, but there is a greater build up of heat from the albedo feedback, and this is released in the cold part of the year when ice forms later or
would have formed or
would have been thicker; the seasonal
effect of reduced winter snow cover decreasing at those latitudes which still recieve sunlight in the winter
would not be
so delayed).
So, the Alaska climate site statement referring to the 1977 PDO shift as «natural» is misleading in the extreme in that the
effect of global
warming on the PDO
warm phase
would be with regard to its persistence and possibly its timing.
So we
have Stefan saying: Pam's high intensity and terrible impact on Vanuatu
have invariably raised the question of the possible
effect of global
warming on its characteristics.
As more optical thickness is added to a «new» band, it will gain greater control over the temperature profile, but eventually, the equilibrium for that band will shift towards a cold enough upper atmosphere and
warm enough lower atmosphere and surface, such that farther increases will cool the upper atmosphere or just that portion near TOA while
warming the lower atmosphere and surface — until the optical thickness is
so large (relative to other bands) that the band loses influence (except at TOA) and
has little farther
effect (except at TOA).
I haven't thought much about the THC although I
've expressed doubt about seeing large regional cooling if it did shut down or change direction, mainly because global
warming is
so rapid that any cooling
effect with time
would be dampened by
warming factors going on.
Efforts to solve global
warming by GHG emissions reductions strategies, rather than GHG replacement strategies, can not realistically succeed over the short - term or the long - term or any term, ever - unless the mandated reductions are
so drastic that in
effect they
would require carbon - free alternatives for nearly all GHG sources.
So you mean to tell me that so dramatic a warming had no effect on Viking migration
So you mean to tell me that

So while the sensitivity of CO2 / warming may be an important (though somewhat uncertain) matter, so too is how sensitive nature is in emitting GHGs in response to the warming (& to the concomitant GW effects), and this it seems is a lot more uncertain and has a lot more potential for danger... like some sleeping monster we keep pokin

a) atmospheric CO2 from human activity is a major bause of observed
warming in the 1980's and 1990's, c) that
warming is overstated due to a number of factors including solar
effects and measurement skew
d) the data going back 150 years is of little reliability because it is clustered
so heavily in northeast america and western europe rather than being global e) the global climate
has been significantly shifting over the last thousand years, over the last ten thousand years, and over the last hundred thousand years; atmospheric CO2 levels did not drive those changes, and some of them were rapid.
I doubt this
would be significantly higher even at 6C global
warming as the EAIS is under extremely cold air
so that the
warming would have little
effect.
Bill says he's got a paper in press about
warming effects on lake life,
so I suspect he does know a number of «peer - rev
'd» similar studies — they may be warmists, but what matters is nailing any details of their evidence that shows bias etc..
So how come the
warmer temperatures 1920 - 40's
has no
effect at all on the extremely straight Antarctic CO2 curve?
Difference between nighttime lows and daytime highs decreasing — no they aren't
Warming of the planet since 1880 — same trend since LIA 40 % rise in Atmospheric CO2 since ~ 1800 —
has little
effect Underlying physics of the Greenhouse
effect — you don't appear to understand them, and neither do modellers, which is why their predictions
have been
so wrong
I
'd like to stick to facts: * CO2 levels are rising because we emit CO2 (
so we can do something about it) * CO2 is a greenhouse gas * CO2 thus contributes to
warming of the surface * Other
effects compensate or amplify these changes * Those other
effects haven't reversed / stopped the
warming trend yet
I said «
So how come the

But over the last decade or
so, glaciologists
have come to appreciate that ice sheets are not gigantic lumps of «static» ice;
warming effects can cause them to act erratically and to move much faster than simple models suggest.
