Sentences with phrase «oceanic circulation shifts»

Not exact matches

Countless additional forces — melting ice sheets, shifts in precipitation, changes in atmospheric and oceanic circulation, to name a few — will influence the process as well.

Is oceanic buffering of forced ITCZ shifts controlled by an underappreciated Atlantic meridional overturning circulation pathway?

Three of these five intervals coincided with multidecadal hemispheric climate - regime shifts, which were characterized by a switch between distinct atmospheric and oceanic circulation patterns, a reversal of NHT trend, and by altered character of ENSO variability.

Once the sign of the solar effect on the stratosphere is reversed it becomes possible to propose a system of climate change arising simply from the latitudinal shifting of the air circulation systems in response to competing forces from variable oceanic and solar cycles.

At present they are limited to guesses about ENSO but have nothing adequate about any other oceanic cycles and nothing about air circulation shifts apart from seasonal changes and a simple observation that warming moves them poleward.

• Even without major change in atmospheric and oceanic circulation, local shifts in centers of production and mixes of species in marine and fresh waters are expected as ecosystems are displaced geographically and changed internally.

In turn I would link that to latitudinal shifts in the air circulation systems as combined solar and oceanic influences compete as described by me in my model and elsewhere.
