Sentences with phrase «include vegetation responses»

Not exact matches

The fossil plant assemblages, including spores and pollen grains, provide useful information on past vegetation and the response of the vegetation to climate changes.

Gentine's team is the first to isolate the response of vegetation from the global warming total complex response, which includes such variables for the water cycle as evapotranspiration (the water evaporated from the surface, both from plants and bare soil) soil moisture, and runoff.

[Response: There is a Hadley Centre / HadCM3 study on this, using a version of the GCM with vegetation model included — William]

For instance, the sensitivity only including the fast feedbacks (e.g. ignoring land ice and vegetation), or the sensitivity of a particular class of climate model (e.g. the «Charney sensitivity»), or the sensitivity of the whole system except the carbon cycle (the Earth System Sensitivity), or the transient sensitivity tied to a specific date or period of time (i.e. the Transient Climate Response (TCR) to 1 % increasing CO2 after 70 years).

Current research focusing on terrestrial animals includes several studies on the island fox, one on the role of deer mice in affecting vegetation community recovery, and one on the response of lizards to the removal of rats on Anacapa.

[Response: The models that include a carbon cycle and dynamic vegetation should have such effects — but this is still a rather experimental class of models.

[Response: There is a Hadley Centre / HadCM3 study on this, using a version of the GCM with vegetation model included — William]

Instead, to constrain the Charney sensitivity from the ice age cycle you need to specifically extract out those long term changes (in ice sheets, vegetation, sea level etc.) and then estimate the total radiative forcing including these changes as forcing, not responses.

The fast response from oceans and vegetation (opposite to each other) leads to a change of about 3 ppmv / °C, while the long term response (including ice sheet / vegetation surface area and - deep - ocean current changes) is about 8 ppmv / °C.

The response of atmospheric CO2 and climate to the reconstructed variability in solar irradiance and radiative forcing by volcanoes over the last millennium is examined by applying a coupled physical — biogeochemical climate model that includes the Lund - Potsdam - Jena dynamic global vegetation model (LPJ - DGVM) and a simplified analogue of a coupled atmosphere — ocean general circulation model.

A research team including Riikka Rinnan and Magnus Kramshøj from the Center for Permafrost at the University of Copehagen, Denmark recently conducted studies to assess the Volatile organic compounds (VOC) emission response of vegetation to warming temperatures in the Arctic.
