Sentences with phrase «other attribution studies»

On the attribution question, the results of Gillett et al. are consistent with the many other attribution studies we've looked at (i.e. Lean and Rind 2008, Huber and Knutti 2011, and Foster and Rahmstorf 2011)- namely that humans have been the dominant cause of the global warming over the past 25 - 150 years (Figure 1).

Not exact matches

The new research differs from other so - called extreme event attribution studies, not just in its broad - brush approach, but also in how the term «extreme» is defined.

However there's also attribution to the way people study, as some are better than others at traditional methods of study to achieve more.

The other point is that attribution studies evaluate the extent to which patterns of model response to external forcing (i.e., fingerprints) simulations explain climate change in * observations.

The UN is slowly moving toward using attribution studies to define liability and compensation by the US and other developed countries.

I think it is true that attribution studies must use appropriate climate models but that does not to my mind imply AOGCMs to the exclusion of all others.

The result still remains counter-intuitive, and most other similar attribution studies (like those referenced above) generally estimate between 0.65 and 0.85 °C warming over the past 100 - 150 years.

Attribution is difficult, there are many factors other than AGW in play, ENSO and other large scale oscillations, however some studies do find that greenhouse warming was at least partially behind the drought.

For instance, US politicians frequently assert that it is an open question whether humans are causing the undeniable warming that the Earth is experiencing, thus exposing ignorance of dozens of lines of independent robust evidence of human causation including attribution studies, finger print analyses, strong evidence that correlates fossil fuel use to rising atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases, and other physical and chemical evidence.

Climate change detection and attribution studies rely on historical simulations using specified combinations of forcings to quantify the contributions from greenhouse gases and other forcings to observed climate change.

This would be helped by other studies building on their «ingenious approach,» says Prof Peter Stott, head of the climate monitoring and attribution at the Met Office Hadley Centre and professor of detection and attribution at the University of Exeter, who also wasn't involved in the study.

The study, just published in Nature Geoscience, is the latest in the relatively new field of attribution, where scientists identify the fingerprints of human influence on observed changes in temperature, rainfall, and other climate parameters.

Those attribution studies, such as Foster & Rahmstorf 2011 and others have aptly noted this, and, though they might not admit it, McKitrick & Tole 2012 are saying something similar... include the change in the amount of coal burned along with some of the GCM's and you can be much better at having a better model of the surface climate trends.

But in fact the methodology that he's used to link the observed warming to increasing greenhouse gases, the so - called attribution step, is not nearly as robust as many other studies have undertaken over the last 10 years.

We are also collaborating with other research groups who are interested in using our simulations to perform similar attribution studies, for snowmelt in western North America, and heatwaves in South Africa and India.

Attribution studies additionally assess whether the response to a key forcing, such as greenhouse gas increases, is distinguishable from that due to other forcings (Appendix 9.
