Sentences with phrase «other orbital changes»

Leif, are you referring to Milankovich cycles here, or some other orbital changes?

Not exact matches

That phase difference from one side of the tip to the other makes the current running through the tip sensitive to changes in the phase of the orbital of the molecule below, too.

Holman says the changes in the transit times of these planets were enhanced by the fact that one of the planets orbits the star in almost exactly half of the time that it takes the other, as such «orbital resonances» increase their gravitational interaction.

This may help explain some of the changes that are not explained by the orbital curves in the other thread, especially the initiation of warming and cooling since the GCR effects can be much more powerful (partly forcing as postulated in the paper, but also amplification of the weaker orbital forcing).

Starting from the Earth's orbital speed of 30 kilometers per second (km / s), the change in velocity (delta - v) the spacecraft must make to enter into a Hohmann transfer orbit that passes near Mercury is large compared to other planetary missions.

[25] Furthermore, other small changes also occur with the binary star's orbital elements.

In other words, if you argue that the Earth has a low climate sensitivity to CO2, you are also arguing for a low climate sensitivity to other influences such as solar irradiance, orbital changes, and volcanic emissions.

Some other forcings have a very small global radiative forcing and yet lead to large impacts (orbital changes for instance) through components of the climate that aren't included in the default set - up.

They are not tuned to trends, events (such as Pinatubo), paleo - climates (6kyr BP, LGM, 8.2 kyr event, D / O events, the PETM, the Maunder Minimum or the Eocene), other forcings (solar, orbital etc.)-- thus every match to those climate changes is «out of sample» in the sense you mean.

[Response: Just to be very clear, «orbital factors» aren't going to change on anything other than, well... orbital timescales.

Increasing CO2 does increase the greenhouse effect, but there are other factors which determine climate, including solar irradiance, volcanism, albedo, orbital variations, continental drift, mountain building, variations in sea currents, changes in greenhouse gases, even cometary impacts.

In the past, orbital forcing's, solar changes and other things have been the big drivers.

We note that there are many reasons why the climate changes — the sun, clouds, oceans, the orbital variations of the earth, as well as a myriad of other inputs.

Carbon dioxide may in fact have very little effect as a control variable in pushing climate to shift state — a small change lost amidst multiple other factors of which clouds, ice, UV and orbital irregularities are the obvious candidates.

The conditions of this orbital climate forcing are similar to those of today's interglacial period1, 2, and they rendered the climate susceptible to other forcing — for example, to changes in the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide.

This is true despite the fact that causality can also operate in the opposite direction when the temperature changes first in response to some other influence such as orbital forcing.

The current understanding of those cycles is that changes in orbital parameters (the Milankovich and other cycles) caused greater amounts of summer sunlight to fall in the northern hemisphere.

The other source is the nonlinear planetary response to changing solar and orbital factors.

We know how the planets behave in relation to the sun and to each other today, but venturing millions or billions of years into the past, it can be tricky to figure out what orbital changes may have impacted the Earth's climate.

This may help explain some of the changes that are not explained by the orbital curves in the other thread, especially the initiation of warming and cooling since the GCR effects can be much more powerful (partly forcing as postulated in the paper, but also amplification of the weaker orbital forcing).
