Sentences with phrase «large seasonal variability»

Not exact matches

Overall it was found that regional variability in carbon system parameters is relatively small; of variation in inshore reefs, the largest contributor was seasonal variation.

We present a large - scale Southern Ocean observational analysis that examines the seasonal magnitude and variability CO32 − and pH. Our analysis shows an intense wintertime minimum in CO32 − south of the Antarctic Polar Front and when combined with anthropogenic CO2 uptake is likely to induce aragonite undersaturation when atmospheric CO2 levels reach ≈ 450 ppm.»

CO2 has seasonal and diurnal variability (natural) on top of its large amplitude shift, making it like a vibrating wildly swinging persistent growing stick in the hornet's nest, the biggest and suddenest stick we know of, and with an ugly shape unlike anything hornets have ever known before.

Moreover, we suggest that accounting for any spatial or seasonal biases in the stack would tend to reduce its variability because of the cancellation of noise in a large - scale mean and the opposing nature of seasonal insolation forcing over the Holocene, causing the Holocene temperature distribution to contract.

Relative to natural internal variability, near - term increases in seasonal mean and annual mean temperatures are expected to be larger in the tropics and subtropics than in mid-latitudes (high confidence).

Despite this successful application of an emergent constraint, the generation of models that followed (CMIP5) continued to exhibit a large spread in seasonal variability of snow - albedo changes (Qu and Hall 2014).

The first part of this thesis compares the seasonal cycle and interannual variability of Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) and Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) satellite retrievals over the Northern Hemisphere subtropical Atlantic Ocean, where soil dust aerosols make the largest contribution to the aerosol load, and are assumed to dominate the variability of each data set.

Overall, we find that the CTL simulation in the low resolution CESM captures the larger - scale patterns of seasonal rainfall and its variability associated with ENSO reasonably well.
