Opting for roasted vegetables over salad might sound
like a more natural choice when it comes to lunch or dinner, but the same
seasonal temperature shift applies to smoothies too.
I've been fighting some
seasonal flu, on and off now for almost 2 weeks and my little daughter has been sick (possibly caught
like 3 different viruses or something) for almost 3 weeks and the crazy weather ain't helping us to get better... One day it's slushy - rainy day with «warm»
temperatures, next day, it's snowing again, very windy and cold outside.
First of all, when it gets to cold
temperatures, I usually give preference to skirts with a weighty fabric —
like the one I got from Aritzia on their recent
seasonal sale.
As the
temperatures rise, how can your veterinary practice help clients prepare for
seasonal threats
like flea and tick infestations or heatstroke?
Just
like the rest of Fiji, Viti Levu has a tropical climate, meaning that the weather is nearly always warm and there is little
seasonal variation in
temperature throughout the year.
While the local,
seasonal climate forcing by the Milankovitch cycles is large (of the order 30 W / m2), the net forcing provided by Milankovitch is close to zero in the global mean, requiring other radiative terms (
like albedo or greenhouse gas anomalies) to force global - mean
temperature change.
In temperate climates strong
seasonal waterborne infections
like the norovirus, rotavirus, salmonella, campylobacter and — differing from the usual dogma — influenza are mainly triggered by drinking water, dependent on the water's
temperature (in Germany it is at a minimum in February and March and at a maximum in August).
Re 9 wili — I know of a paper suggesting, as I recall, that enhanced «backradiation» (downward radiation reaching the surface emitted by the air / clouds) contributed more to Arctic amplification specifically in the cold part of the year (just to be clear, backradiation should generally increase with any warming (aside from greenhouse feedbacks) and more so with a warming due to an increase in the greenhouse effect (including feedbacks
like water vapor and, if positive, clouds, though regional changes in water vapor and clouds can go against the global trend); otherwise it was always my understanding that the albedo feedback was key (while sea ice decreases so far have been more a summer phenomenon (when it would be warmer to begin with), the heat capacity of the sea prevents much
temperature response, but there is a greater build up of heat from the albedo feedback, and this is released in the cold part of the year when ice forms later or would have formed or would have been thicker; the
seasonal effect of reduced winter snow cover decreasing at those latitudes which still recieve sunlight in the winter would not be so delayed).
The global warming signal itself is a multidecadal feature of the climate, but just
like the
seasonal example above, it has been possible at times to take one period of one
temperature record - surface air
temperatures in most cases - and do a «January - February» job with it, thereby making the claim that
temperatures are flatlining or even cooling.
Central England
Temperatures (the oldest in the world) are a subject of particular interest to researchers and I would
like to highlight the graphical
seasonal records from Professor Humlum's web site:
It may happen that one of the models hind - casts correctly one of the parameters of interest for one the seasons, but never all significant parameters
like the min and max
temperatures and the
seasonal precipitations for all seasons.
Sure enough, looking at
seasonal temperature anomalies we can see various curves
like this:
What the paper does focus on, Hansen said, is determining whether extreme weather events
like the Texas heat wave can be attributed to climate variability — the natural ups and downs in
seasonal temperature — or to the global upward trend in summer
temperatures that science now links with climate change.
Very unusual — but then the high moved on, finally, and all of a sudden —
seasonal temperatures, just when you've thoroughly forgotten what they were
like!
[Response: Your argument misses the point in three different and important ways, not even considering whether or not the Black Hills data have any general applicability elsewhere, which they may or may not: (1) It ignores the point made in the post about the potential effect of previous,
seasonal warming on the magnitude of an extreme event in mid summer to early fall, due to things
like (especially) a depletion in soil moisture and consequent accumulation of degree days, (2) it ignores that biological sensitivity is far FAR greater during the warm season than the cold season for a whole number of crucial variables ranging from respiration and photosynthesis to transpiration rates, and (3) it ignores the potential for derivative effects, particularly fire and smoke, in radically increasing the local
temperature effects of the heat wave.
It looks
like the designers responsible for its latest
seasonal catalog opted for playful colors, which seem to appropriately bid adieu to the cold winter weather and welcome more favorable
temperatures.
