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.

We could get rid of the negative forcings by subtracting the impacts of ocean cycles etc. from the temperature record, leaving only the anthropogenic component.

None of the Annan / Hargreaves priors go below zero, and while this may be physically realistic it does not allow for the fact that the observational data generate negative sensitivities, mostly because of ocean cycle warming and cooling effects that the radiative forcing estimates do not take into account.

It was mostly if not entirely a result of a change from a warm to a cold PDO cycle in 1939 (with a later assist from the AMO), and I get my negative sensitivities because the forcing estimates don't allow for the heating and cooling impacts of ocean cycles.

In 2009, they continue to examine the coupling of ocean cycles, stressing «caution that the shifts described here are presumably superimposed upon a long term warming trend due to anthropogenic forcing» (Swanson & Tsonis 2009).

On the topic of warmist scientists, one has to wonder why they define «climate» as a stretch of weather of 30 years when some of the ocean cycles take that long or longer and can run out of phase with each other.

Several researchers have shown that the warmth and drought predicted by CO2 driven models may have mistakenly modeled the climate effects of ocean cycles but blamed the results on CO2.

The warming (WV is a ghg) is welcome (countering the average global cooling which would otherwise be occurring as a result of declining net effect of ocean cycles and a declining proxy which is the time - integral of SSN anomalies) but the added WV increases the risk of precipitation related flooding.

The problem with that argument is that over long periods of time (like the six decades since 1950), positive and negative phases of ocean cycles tend to cancel each other out, and thus internal variability doesn't have a large influence on long - term temperatures.

The air circulation changes ensure that over time the energy radiated to space matches the energy received from the sun despite disruptions in the flow caused by the effects of the ocean cycles or changes in the composition of the air.

♣ Even though he informs us he is fully - signed - up to AGW - inexorably - warming - the - planet and that he is only saying that it is the temperature - wobbles - creating - slowdowns, he then manages to set out this question for us: «If there is a slowdown in Gistemp, was it because global warming slowed down, or was it because of an ocean cycle?»

If there is a slowdown in Gistemp, was it because global warming slowed down, or was it because of an ocean cycle?

Not exact matches

A huge proportion of life depends on them — reefs cover less than 1 % of the ocean floor, yet 25 % of fish species spend some part of their life cycles in them.

But perhaps more importantly, 25 % of fish species spend some part of their life cycle in reefs, despite the fact that they cover less than 1 % of the ocean floor.

By its very nature, the ocean is downstream from everything which means that a significant proportion of our waste inevitably ends up there, unless we close the loop on our waste cycle and begin producing sustainably.

I choose to live life to the fullest through joy of discovering His «art» like fractals, birth, consciousness, seasons, animals, the «mighty deep» thanks to a Creator rather than accidental and inconsequential life, while hanging in the perfect orbit between burning up and freezing, complete with the earth's own washing machine, the ocean, which cycles on accidental moon power.

There are more, however, including the amount of sunlight an ice sheet is able to reflect; the larger an ice sheet, the more sunlight is reflected, but the smaller an ice sheet, the more ocean there is surrounding the ice sheet to absorb the sunlight which in turn heats up the surrounding waters increasing the melt which decreases the size of the ice sheet which in turn... and so goes the cycle.

It includes the ecological cycles that maintain the composition of the atmosphere and the oceans and those that are responsible for the degradation of wastes.

The Carbon cycle is a geological process that regulates the CO2 - level in the atmosphere and with that, the temperature of the planet's surface: In the ocean, CO2, in its dissolved form, undergoes a chemical reaction and is then transported into Earth's mantle.
