If you've been on the site for awhile, you have a head start because we've already discussed the importance of a discipline known as asset allocation, which involves selecting among different asset classes to build a well - balanced portfolio that can weather different economic environments, tax regimes, global conditions, inflation or deflation, and a host of other variables that history has shown will fluctuate over time.

In Libya, where rebel fighters entered the capital over the weekend, appearing to usher in what some say are the last days of Moammar Gadhafi's regime, Ramadan is coinciding with some of the summer's hottest days: hardly ideal weather for staging street fights against a deeply entrenched regime.

That strikes me as more of an argument for a military operation designed to bring down the Assad regime as quickly as possible rather than the «targeted» strikes that Kerry admitted Assad would weather.

The Callahan - Pederson regime had only two problems — «the style of management and the system» — says Dr. Jack Stark, the team psychologist for 16 years, until 2003, adding, «You've got to understand your state and the culture — the weather, recruiting, everything.»

This achievement notwithstanding, Mugabe's repressive policies have earned his country wide ranging economic sanctions from most Western governments, yet it appears that his regime has learned to live with this level of diplomatic isolation largely due to its strong and diverse relations with the rest of the developing world, enabling Mugabe and ZANU - PF to weather any economic downturn caused by external sanctions.

Before and during the journey come the maps, they bear witness and respond to the shifting regimes and technologies of fortification, to the intimidation, weather, hospitality, law, and violence that govern and structure possible journeys.

Previous works (eg Moron et Plaut 2003) find an El Nino influence on European fall - winter weather, with a zonal mode dominant on nov - dec (warm and wet flux from Atlantic) and with a higher probability of a switch on west blocking or Greenland anticyclone regimes on feb - march.

«My personal informal estimate is that extreme weather events over the last decade which at least are more probable under future regimes have cost in excess of 100,000 lives and $ 100 billion US»

Axel Schweiger wrote, that we had just a couple of warm springs, which caused the deviation from the GCM predictions, and this is one interesting point: Is this «couple o» warm springs» really something coming and going like any cyclone, or is it a sign of a changing weather regime with stronger mixing and stronger heat transport?

From the conclusions of: Simulating regime structures in weather and climate prediction models

Extratropical weather is frequently influenced by recurring circulation patterns, usually referred to as flow regimes or modes of variability.

A useful aspect of this low - frequency circulation is that it can often be described by just a few quasi-stationary regime states, broadly defined as recurrent or persistent large - scale structures, that exert a significant impact on the probability of experiencing extreme surface weather conditions.»

Couple that with the limited growth potential of CO2 concentrations and growing biological response (which likely lags concentration growth), and it doesn't even seem plausible that warming will be a net cost on a meaningful time scale (hey anything is possible — maybe there are temporary climate regimes where even mild ghe produces worse weather which we just haven't experienced yet — eg a portion of the - PDO phase).

Our climate operates in cycles, which favors different regimes of weather.

An expanding area of research since the SAR is the consideration of whether climate change may be realised as preferred modes of non-linear naturally occurring atmospheric circulation patterns, or so - called weather regimes as proposed by Palmer (1999).

Recent work (e.g., Hurrell 1995, 1996; Thompson and Wallace 1998; Corti et al., 1999) has suggested that the observed warming over the last few decades may be manifest as a change in frequency of these naturally preferred patterns (Chapters 2 and 7) and there is now considerable interest in testing the ability of climate models to simulate such weather regimes (Chapter 8) and to see whether the greenhouse gas forced runs suggest shifts in the residence time or transitions between such regimes on long time - scales.

Comparison of the experimental weather balloon measurements to our two - phase regime for the 23rd May, 2011 (12:00 UTC), Albany, New York (USA) weather balloon.

The evidence is mounting that we have entered a new regime of prolonged record - smashing extreme weather events thanks to our as - yet unrestricted emissions of greenhouse gas.

Besides the lying models, they sell the scare with other outright lies, such as «extreme weather», which many fall in the public for because the media fail in their constitutional mission of calling BS on the regime and its sc * m du jours.

While extreme events per se are not abrupt climate changes as defined in this report, changes in extreme events could lead to abrupt changes in two ways: (1) an abrupt change in a weather or climate extremes regime, for example a sudden shift to persistent drought conditions; or (2) a gradual trend in the frequency or severity of extremes that causes abrupt impacts when societal or ecological thresholds are crossed, as illustrated in Figure 2.10.

Tselioudis, G., and C. Jakob, 2002: Evaluation of midlatitude cloud properties in a weather and a climate model: Dependence on dynamic regime and spatial resolution.

The decade of the 70's were exceptional for its extreme and severe weather events that plagued the globe during the regime of low atmospheric CO2.

The most effective downscaling approaches use the statistical correlations of local weather to larger scale patterns and use model projections for those patterns to estimate changes in local weather regimes.
