Sentences with phrase «oceanic oscillations»

"Oceanic oscillations" refers to the natural movement and fluctuations of ocean waters, like waves or currents, which occur over specific periods of time. Full definition
Davis speculates these cycles are the result of oceanic oscillations which frequently operate on a centennial scale bases.
In addition there is The Hot Water Bottle Effect whereby the oceans release stored heat intermittently at variable rates depending on the average state of the various oceanic oscillations at any particular time.
I have my own theory on that point which I've expressed in my earlier articles so that it may be possible to use the more recently discovered decadal oceanic oscillations as a diagnostic tool but this article is about weather so I will leave the oceans to one side in this article.
The oceans release stored heat intermittently at variable rates depending on the average state of the various global oceanic oscillations at any particular time.
My link below to article 1041 contains details of my view that the sun drives the various oceanic oscillations which in turn drive global temperature variations with all other influences including CO2 being minor and often cancelling themselves out leaving the solar / oceanic driver supreme.
I did have one question though, you seem to mention the apparent oceanic oscillations such as the NAO or the ENSO or PDO.
That brings me back nicely to my overarching theories about the interplay between incoming solar energy and the various decadal or multi decadal oceanic oscillations.
So are oceanic oscillations causing animal migrations to change and the summer season to expand so consistently (by which I mean over many different measures)?
This paper does not deserve the levels of positive response being given to it though I suppose it is understandable from those who were unaware of the climate significance of that 60 year oceanic oscillation.
I have already provided examples of observed real world shifts in global temperature trend going back to 1960 that match very well with shifts in the balance between solar variation and the net global effect of all the separate oceanic oscillations (especially the Pacific Decadal Oscillation which is by far the largest).
so I suspect that the Mediaeval warmth now emanating from the oceans may well warm the troposphere a little more during future years of warm oceanic oscillations.
iii) Athough they explicitly acknowledge the modulating bottom up effect of oceanic oscillations they do not follow through.
The indicator is nevertheless sensitive to longer - term variations in surface air temperature such as those associated with decadal and multi-decadal oceanic oscillations.
The current assumption that the oceanic oscillations are «just» a mechanism for redistributing heat already available to the atmosphere must be wrong.
The current assumption that the oceanic oscillations are «just» a mechanism for geographically redistributing heat already available to the atmosphere must be wrong.
In order to properly understand, what is going on in the Arctic ocean, we first must understand the oceanic oscillation and the currents in this vast ocean, it is interesting to note, Sweden is recalling its ice breaker from the USA Antarctic survey, and there is concern in the sea of Okhotsk — where, for the last couple of years breaking the winter sea ice has been a major problem, colder here, relatively «warmer» there etc..
Many predictions (oceanic oscillations) for the next decades are on the cool side.
The recent regional patterns of temperature change have been shown to be related, in part, to various phases of atmospheric - oceanic oscillations, such as the North Atlantic - Arctic Oscillation and possibly the Pacific Decadal Oscillation.
Over at the TAV blog, I saw the oceanic oscillations as being similar to a similar inductive - capactive tank as expressed by Ruhroh.
Nobody knows the cause of the rising trend since the Little Ice Age and the excursions around that trend are the oceanic oscillations.
Each oceanic oscillation has a warming and a cooling mode and they regularly switch between them.
