Sentences with phrase «less direct warming»

But that does not change the basic log physics, which say more CO2 contributes less direct warming.

Not exact matches

The longer spices sit on the shelf — especially in warm kitchens or direct light — the less potent they become.

8A / 12A switchable Level 1 charging cable CHAdeMO DC quick charge port Battery warming system MiEV remote system (pre-activated air conditioning, heater and timer battery charging) Approaching Vehicle Audio System (AVAS) for alerting pedestrians Charging Times: 3 22 hours for 8amp 14 hours for 12 amp 7 hours with 240V / 15A Level 2 charging system Less than 30 minutes to 80 % full with CHAdeMO Level 3 DC Quick Charger Driving Modes: «D» — allows maximum performance as it generates 100 % torque in direct response to accelerator input «ECO» — helps maximize energy usage («fuel economy») by slightly reducing overall power output to reduce the rate of battery consumption «B» — increases regenerative brake biasing to augment energy recycling (with 100 % of power production available)

Before allowing the temperature to respond, we can consider the forcing at the tropopause (TRPP) and at TOA, both reductions in net upward fluxes (though at TOA, the net upward LW flux is simply the OLR); my point is that even without direct solar heating above the tropopause, the forcing at TOA can be less than the forcing at TRPP (as explained in detail for CO2 in my 348, but in general, it is possible to bring the net upward flux at TRPP toward zero but even with saturation at TOA, the nonzero skin temperature requires some nonzero net upward flux to remain — now it just depends on what the net fluxes were before we made the changes, and whether the proportionality of forcings at TRPP and TOA is similar if the effect has not approached saturation at TRPP); the forcing at TRPP is the forcing on the surface + troposphere, which they must warm up to balance, while the forcing difference between TOA and TRPP is the forcing on the stratosphere; if the forcing at TRPP is larger than at TOA, the stratosphere must cool, reducing outward fluxes from the stratosphere by the same total amount as the difference in forcings between TRPP and TOA.

It follows that as a direct result of the tropopause having been raised above the rising column there is less warming by compression than there would otherwise have been at the base of the descending column.

Or you could believe the Warmists, and surround yourself with CO2, which should magically warm you up by 33C if you stand in direct sunlight, somewhat less if the surrounding air temperature is say, -85 C.

Examples: Since leaves function more efficiently in diffuse light than in dappled bright - or - dark direct light, clearer skies will reduce carbon uptake: Mercado et al. (2009); a multi-year study of grass found carbon uptake sharply decreased in hotter summers: Arnone et al. (2008); warming kills plankton, resulting in less emission of DMS and thus less cooling clouds: Six et al. (2013); changes in Arctic rivers and coastlines could bring more carbon loss than models anticipated: Abbott et al. (2016).

However, Kelly Sims Gallagher is not merely a coincidentally handy local Tufts University professor, she has direct connections with the same set of leaked industry memo phrases seen within the growing numbers of California global warming lawsuits — the «reposition global warming as theory rather than fact» strategy phrase and the «older, less - educated males» / «younger, lower - income women» targeting phrases — which are widely repeated elsewhere as proof that the fossil fuel industry «pays skeptic climate scientists to participate in misinformation campaigns» undermining the certainty of catastrophic man - caused global warming (despite those memos being worthless as evidence, but that is another matter).

While the brash brand of direct interference into the public discourse on scientific findings about global warming and associated harmful impacts we saw from Exxon operatives in the 1980s and 1990s has now morphed into a more passive, less - visible form of tampering — such as the company's continued stream of donations (some alleged to be illegal) to groups known for lobbying against and often shooting down federal and state - level proposals to promote renewable energy and limit carbon emissions — perhaps Avery will be able to persuade the new corporate leadership team to stop funding these groups altogether.

The more direct measure of global warming provided by measuring the energy content of the climate system avoids many of these problems, although the observational record is shorter and less complete (e.g. Church et al 2011).

We know it from direct measurements of land and water, from shifts in where animals and plants live, from rapid increases in glacier and ice sheet melt, from sea level rise (due less to melting ice, and more to expansion as the water warms).

These observed changes aren't direct observations of thermocline depth, but IMHO, if there's less cold dense water on the bottom, there's more warm water on top.

A wide range of human activities affect marine biodiversity both in direct ways, such as exploitation by fisheries, habitat loss due to dredging, filling, and other construction influences, fishing gear impacts, and pollution, and in less direct ways, including effects of global change resulting in acidification, warmer waters, and coastal inundation.

Where the science is much less certain is both, what is the scale of the feedbacks and what are the consequences of the total effects (direct plus feedback) of CO2 warming?
