Sentences with phrase «natural cyclical changes»

1) This kind of study continues to reinforce the notion that natural cyclical changes in ocean to atmosphere energy transfers are a very signficant potential reason for both the pause (as the ocean has retained more energy) and part of the big warming during the 1976 - 1998 period.

Not exact matches

Whilst this is the basic cause of the cyclical nature of the ice age and the warmer inter ice age climate of the earth in the last few million years at least, there are natural «feedbacks» in the earth which then exaggerate this climatic change.

That's why deniers will continue to insist that observed climate changes are «natural» and «cyclical,» and why young Earth creationists Tony Perkins and Ken Ham attribute them to an act of God.

The advantage of recognising a reversed sign for the solar effect high up in the atmosphere is that it enables a scenario whereby the bottom up effects of ocean cycles and the top down effects of solar variability can be seen to be engaged in a complex ever changing dance with the primary climate response being changes in the tropospheric air circulation systems to give us the observed natural climate variability via cyclical latitudinal shifts in all the air circulation systems and notably the jet streams.

I'm not saying that human activities do not have an impact on climate, I am just saying that we have greatly overlooked the natural cyclical nature of our solar system, as well as other factors that effect climate change.

Although it is clear that further attention is required in defining and characterizing the aspects of this variation (e.g. frequency and amplitude [44,65]-RRB- that lead to differences in species responses, a more immediate empirical challenge is to characterize and separate the effects of periodic, stochastic and / or cyclical natural variations [61] from directional change imposed by long - term climatic forcing.

As Sarah Palin said, «while we recognize the occurrence of these natural, cyclical environmental trends, we can't say with assurance that man's activities cause weather change».
