By preventing any persistent build up of temperature differential between air and water it also prevents any changes in air temperature affecting the temperature of the oceans and thereby changing the air temperature by indirect means.
«The rise in air temperature links to butterfly emergence in a cause - and - effect pattern,» says Kearney.
They estimate that, across about 60 % of the global vegetated area, greening has buffered warming by about 14 %; for the remaining areas, which mostly include boreal zones, LAI trends have amplified the raise in air temperatures, leading to an additional warming of about 10 %.

However, changes in the distribution of snowfall through the year, conceivably linked to increases in sea surface temperature, may have reduced the reflectivity of the glacier and played an even bigger role in forcing the retreat than changes in air temperature alone.
Even a small increase in air temperature pushes up overall energy demand, and about 25 % of our energy bills are for only 40 hours per year when the grid is most heavily used.
Flatline in total air heat content, flatline in air temperature, and yet some energy is flowing from the air into the ocean, going downwards.

Given electronic probes generally respond more quickly to fluctuations in air temperature than mercury thermometers, it follows that this method — instantaneous recordings from an electronic probe — would result in new temperature maxima under the same weather conditions.
They looked at the way that permafrost changes across the landscape, and how this is related to the air temperature, and then considered possible future increases in air temperature before converting these to a permafrost distribution map, using their observation - based relationship.

5) It is important that changes in air temperatures do not seem to be able to either heat up the oceans or significantly affect the variable rates of energy release from the oceans.
Warming oceans and a sharp rise in air temperatures show that climate change is in full effect — and may be outstripping predictions.
Recorded observations show an increase in air temperature which is associated with an earlier onset of hop phenological phases and a shortening of the vegetation period.
