Sentences with phrase «in global dimming»

No one will ever make money out of trading emission reduction credits in global dimming.

This was discussed here a couple of months back in the Global Dimming and the climateprediction.net posts, and so it is worth revisiting the question in the light of their analysis.

Not exact matches

«Global warming boosts the probability of really extreme events, like the recent US heat wave, far more than it boosts more moderate events,» point out climate scientists Stefan Rahmstorf and Dim Coumou in a blogpost on RealClimate.org.

I mean, what's going to happen now is that we are, you know, getting much cleaner in the way that we combust things and as a result of global dimming is going to reduce, and that's going to give us a little bit more warming.

In May climatologists Michael Roderick and Graham Farquhar of the Australian National University released data suggesting that a little - known trend, commonly called solar dimming, is a global phenomenon.

«It is very important to understand how global warming affects circulation patterns in the atmosphere,» says co-author Dim Coumou from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Netherlands.

There have been articles as far back as the 70s concerning global dimming but it's only very recently, apparently, that all of the probable causes (e.g. the microscopic particles causing smaller water droplets in clouds, enhancing the mirror effect, as well as contrails) have been understood.

«Global dimming» is neither global in extent nor has it continued afterGlobal dimming» is neither global in extent nor has it continued afterglobal in extent nor has it continued after 1990.

One such episode was on Global Dimming and one on the Thermohaline system in the north atlantic.

Jacobson's work is original and important in showing that cooling by global dimming is less, and less important, than the various warming impacts of this pollution.

[Response: Global dimming is mostly associated with anthropogenic aerosols, and in the southern hemisphere these are in pretty short supply... - gavin]

«in the meantime we have to pump sulphur via aircraft exhausts into the upper atmosphere to cause global dimming»

Given the significant role such aerosols played in the 40's, 50's, 60's from U.S. and European emissions (prior to serious scrubbers), and that the scale in China / India right now is significantly larger, why wouldn't this aerosol screening (global dimming) be an issue?

«A rapid cutback in greenhouse gas emissions could speed up global warming... because current global warming is offset by global dimming — the 2 - 3ºC of cooling cause by industrial pollution, known to scientists as aerosol particles, in the atmosphere.»

There have been articles as far back as the 70s concerning global dimming but it's only very recently, apparently, that all of the probable causes (e.g. the microscopic particles causing smaller water droplets in clouds, enhancing the mirror effect, as well as contrails) have been understood.

Dr Rotstayn says that «what our model is suggesting is that these droughts in the Sahel in the 1970s and the 1980s may have been caused by pollution from Europe and North America» and the commentary goes on to say «if his model is correct...» So the science is certainly not presented without caveats, and nowhere do we simply state that global dimming is unquestionably the cause of the Sahel drought.

(This large uncertainty essentially due to the uncertainty in the aerosol forcing; it is also the main reason why the magnitude of global dimming has little or no implication for climate sensitivity).

-LCB- Slightly off topic — If the global - dimming thing has some truth in it, then it could be part of the economic activity temperature story.

As an aside, the radiative forcing by aerosols (in both long wave and solar radiation at the tropopause) is not the same as global dimming (which is a solar radiation effect at the surface) though they are related.

First, the transcript uses the following comment from you as the lead - in to the comments by Peter Cox predicting major effects from the decline of global dimming over the next century: «We lived in a global warming plus a Global Dimming world, and now we are taking out Global Diglobal dimming over the next century: «We lived in a global warming plus a Global Dimming world, and now we are taking out Global Ddimming over the next century: «We lived in a global warming plus a Global Dimming world, and now we are taking out Global Diglobal warming plus a Global Dimming world, and now we are taking out Global DiGlobal Dimming world, and now we are taking out Global DDimming world, and now we are taking out Global DiGlobal DimmingDimming.

Still there remains a question in my mind about the relative importance of the GHG warming and the aerosol indirect effects on «global dimming».

As the cycle spins back up with the waning of global dimming, will that generally mean an increase in storm activity and extremes?

Anyway, a while back I saw a Nova / BBC special about the Global Dimming phenomenon (pan evaporation rate, etc.) that apparently had been discovered fairly recently, sometime in the late 90's I believe.

Global dimming is indicated by measurements over land areas in many regions in the world and may therefore be a real phenomena.

Gavin, you criticised Tim Flannery and wrote «Does global dimming indicate that we will be required to take CO2 out of the atmosphere in order to stabilize Earth's climate?

``... estimate that variations in diffuse fraction, associated largely with the «global dimming» period6, 7, 8, enhanced the land carbon sink by approximately one - quarter between 1960 and 1999.

«Mercado et al. use the HadGEM2 - A general circulation model to simulate the effect of late twentieth century «global dimming» and associated increases in the diffuse radiation fraction on global carbon storage.»

Does global dimming indicate that we will be required to take CO2 out of the atmosphere in order to stabilize Earth's climate?

It is likely that at least some of this change, particularly over Europe, is due to decreases in pollution; most governments have done more to reduce aerosols released into the atmosphere that help global dimming instead of reducing CO2 emissions.

Even an apparent global dimming trend in the last decade has been unable to slow the inexorable warming of the global oceans.

Considering also that Northern Hemispheric cooling in 1940 — 70 is attributable to the «global dimming» effect of increasing sulfate aerosols, the sulfate cooling effect is, again, felt more strongly in Greenland, and indirectly via altered atmospheric dynamics not via local radiation budget modification.

The global dimming trend reversed around 1990 - 15 years after the global warming trend began in the mid 1970's.

«Global Dimming» is increasing in magnitude all over the globe as the ongoing aerosol assault continues.

Now that we have data on dimming, which was confirmed after 9/11 when all air trafic was grounded in the US and temperatures and sunlight rose while being monitored, web site development we can address this skewing of the data on global warming.

Bob; I'm glad you linked to McIntyre's discussion of the «Bucket» case; this has always intriqued me because the AGW crew have been furious with the 40's dip in temp as it contradicts the effect of the linear increase in CO2 and its monotonic connotations for temp; to overcome the mid-century decline the global dimming hilarity was espoused; the Bucket case added a further dimension of hilarity to this because if the temps actually hadn't dropped as per the Bucket case then global dimming was rubbish; such is the illogic of the orthodoxy.
