Sentences with phrase «most ocean temperature data»

In the past, as PopSci previously reported, most ocean temperature data was taken by ships which pulled water into their engine rooms — rooms warmer than the ocean outside, making ocean temperature recordings slightly higher.

Not exact matches

The new findings of successful multi-year drought / fire predictions are based on a series of computer modeling experiments, using the state - of - the - art earth system model, the most detailed data on current ocean temperature and salinity conditions, and the climate responses to natural and human - linked radiative forcing.
A well - known issue with LGM proxies is that the most abundant type of proxy data, using the species composition of tiny marine organisms called foraminifera, probably underestimates sea surface cooling over vast stretches of the tropical oceans; other methods like alkenone and Mg / Ca ratios give colder temperatures (but aren't all coherent either).
Some programs were huge, mobilizing cooperation among a dozen or more nations to provide data from weather stations, research ships, and (by far the most expensive) satellites to monitor temperatures, clouds, ocean currents, ice sheets and more.
Because of that the ocean temperature data, sparse as it may be is the more reliable and most easily compared to paleo.
Previous large natural oscillations are important to examine: however, 1) our data isn't as good with regards to external forcings or to historical temperatures, making attribution more difficult, 2) to the extent that we have solar and volcanic data, and paleoclimate temperature records, they are indeed fairly consistent with each other within their respective uncertainties, and 3) most mechanisms of internal variability would have different fingerprints: eg, shifting of warmth from the oceans to the atmosphere (but we see warming in both), or simultaneous warming of the troposphere and stratosphere, or shifts in global temperature associated with major ocean current shifts which for the most part haven't been seen.
that they looked at ocean temperature data and the growth of two of the most toxic algae in the North Atlantic and North Pacific oceans.
Other data sets such as ocean heat content, sea ice extent, whatever, are not sufficiently mature or long - range... Further, the surface temperature is most relevant to climate change impacts, since humans and land ecosystems live on the surface.»
Most LGM proxy data suggest that the tropical oceans were colder by about 2 °C than at present, and that the frontal zones in the SH and NH were shifted equatorward (Kucera et al., 2005), even though large differences are found between temperature estimates from the different proxies in the North Atlantic.
Josh Willis explanation that extra warming was going down in the deep ocean is unsupportable because sea level data are essentialy coherent with ARGO ocean temperature: no temperature increase for ARGO (that is the most extensive way we are measuring ocean temperature), no sea level increase.
Most estimates of ocean warming have been limited to the upper 700 meters of water, owing to the limited availability of ocean - temperature data below that depth.
The study authors compared the simulations that were correctly synchronized with the ocean cycles (blue data in the left frame below) and the most out - of - sync (grey data in the right frame) to the observed global surface temperature changes (red) for each 15 - year period.
