The results indicate that aerosol injections can be carefully tailored to achieve desired results, such as a minimal albedo
increase near the equator, rather than a globally uniform response.
Not exact matches
Most coffee is grown
near the
equator, but
increasing temperatures, new pests, droughts, and intensive rainfall are taking their toll on the crop.
This image shows QBO amplitude
near the
equator at a height of 11 miles: Observed values from balloon wind measurements from 1950s to present; simulations from a climate model driven with observed concentrations of greenhouse gases from 1900 to 2005 and then with projected
increase through 2100.
Scientists declare the development of an El Niño when they observe a temperature
increase of at least 0.4 degree Celsius (0.72 degree Fahrenheit) for five months in a row in the eastern Pacific
near the
equator.
On land, temperatures
increased by ~ 5 °C in the middle latitudes and by ~ 3 °C
near the
equator.
Global models for the 21st century find an
increased variability of precipitation minus evaporation [P - E] in most of the world, especially
near the
equator and at high latitudes [125].
If clouds really formed more easily / frequently to reflect more sunlight as the planet warms (or, in this scenario, stopped forming, and stopped reflecting sunlight
near the
equator as the planet cools, providing an offset to the
increased albedo to the north), then this scenario wouldn't come about.
Consenquently, the associated SST pattern is slightly cooler in the deep convection upwelling regions of the Equitorial Pacific and the Indian Ocean, strongly cooler in the
nearest deep convection source region of the South Atlantic
near Africa and the
Equator, warm over the bulk of the North Atlantic, strongly warmer where the gulf stream loses the largest portion of its heat
near 50N 25W, and strongly cooler
near 45N 45W, which turns out to be a back - eddy of the Gulf Stream with
increased transport of cold water from the north whenever the Gulf Stream is running quickly.
This is at odds with climate models, which predict higher
increases in temperature at higher latitudes than
near the
equator, if GHGs are the main cause of the
increase in temperature...
Repeating,
near the poles, we should see much
increasing temperatures because the same well - mixed worldwide level of CO2 would greatly
increase the local GHG concentration
near the poles - > greatly
increasing the (predicted) temperature
increase; while
near the
equator, the same
increase in CO2 means little.
The resulting global climate is 2 °C warmer, with temperature
increases of some 20 °C at high latitudes, and 1 °C
near the
equator.»
My comment: So, I would expect more muons to be detected at high latitudes during a SSW and, due to the cooling of the stratosphere (
increasing density) over the
equator less muons to be detected at the surface
near the
equator.
Global models for the 21st century find an
increased variability of precipitation minus evaporation [P - E] in most of the world, especially
near the
equator and at high latitudes [125].
On p. 222, the arrow for the trade wind strength should be inverted (a colder North Atlantic is associated with
increased trade winds
near the
equator).
Regions that are
near the
equator are already hot, and a further
increase in heat could be devastating.
The number of species
increases exponentially from the regions
near the poles across the moderate latitudes and to the
equator.
Our experiments show that the solar cycle influences tropospheric rainfall patterns in a manner consistent with some observations, with
increased solar activity favoring precipitation north of the
equator (for example, the South Asian monsoon) and decreased precipitation both
near the
equator and at northern mid-latitudes.
