Sentences with phrase «like glacial cycles»

Fig 10 - 8 here looks a lot like glacial cycles.

As Lindzen says IIRC, do we get big changes like the glacial cycles even with low sensitivity?

The research team also assessed whether climate sensitivity was different in warmer times, like the Pliocene, than in colder times, like the glacial cycles of the last 800,000 years.

what is necessary and a very important change for us today and the future is our conscience, and this requires global consciousness necessary for our long term needs and survival, we need a faith that will compel us to unite to address the problems of survival, in the future, a few thousand years from now the glacial period cycle is due, earth will no longer be hospitable and we either have to immigrate to other planets or, develope a system that will protect us, the natural calamities like floods, typhoons, sub zero temperatures, will become our big problem in the future, so we need a religion that will guide our conscience from simplistic self survival towards a more holistic view of reality.Our oneness with ourselves and Him is the primary tenets or doctrines of this religion.

The sediment cores used in this study cover a period when the planet went through many climate cycles driven by variations in Earth's orbit, from extreme glacial periods such as the Last Glacial Maximum about 20,000 years ago, when massive ice sheets covered the northern parts of Europe and North America, to relatively warm interglacial periods with climates more like tglacial periods such as the Last Glacial Maximum about 20,000 years ago, when massive ice sheets covered the northern parts of Europe and North America, to relatively warm interglacial periods with climates more like tGlacial Maximum about 20,000 years ago, when massive ice sheets covered the northern parts of Europe and North America, to relatively warm interglacial periods with climates more like today's.

The glacial interglacial cycle is like a sine wave and the only possible explanation is in our perambulations around our galaxy and the effect on our solar system.

If you take glacial - interglacial cycles, simple non-linear models like that of Didier Paillard (Nature 1998) can reproduce those from the Milankovich forcing, again as a simple threshold process with no chaos involved whatsoever.

Vetoretti and Peltier (2004) found that glacial inceptions can be caused either by a strong obliquity forcing or by a combination of eccentricity - precession forcing and low CO2 values, which is in line with results from Berger and Loutre (2001) who found that CO2 is important during times like the MIS - 11, when the insolation variations are too small to drive glacial - interglacial cycles.

Although the sensitivity of climate does change itself as the boundary conditions change, the past (PETM, glacial - interglacial cycles, etc) does not support sensitivities as low as 1 degree per doubling of CO2, and it doesn't support very high ones (like 10 degrees per doubling) either.

re: It's just like a natural change re: They said it was cooling 25 years ago re: CO2 does not cause the glacial cycles

Among other things, if one sets aside the astronomical Milankovich cycle suggestion as the driver of glacial epochs, the ice ages might be quasi-periodic oscillations like the ENSO pattern.

These results also increase our overall understanding of glacial − interglacial cycles by putting further constraints on the timing and strength of other processes involved in these cycles, like changes in sea ice and ice sheet extents or changes in ocean circulation and deep water formation.

Weathering may depend on properties like temperature, pCO2, land ice abrasion, and sea level change but has been suggested to be stable over glacial − interglacial cycles (54).

I propose that Westeros (or rather, the unnamed planet which contains Westeros and Essos and any other undiscovered continents in Game of Thrones; let's call it Westeros - world) experiences glacial cycles just like Earth, but the periods of the underlying Milankovitch cycles are much shorter — on the order of years to decades.
