Oh, one
other note: the hot tub isn't «hot»... rather it's a smaller pool with slightly

Do you really think the fact that
waters are
warmer and atmospheric moisture content is higher now due to man - made global
warming (not to mention the «blocking high» over Greenland due to Arctic climate change) may be less of an influence on Hurricane Sandy
than some
other currently unobserved changes to our climate that occurred 3000 years ago?
A thermometer on the
other side of the
water should take longer to
warm up
than one on the
other side of an empty container, because the heat is having trouble finding its way through the
water.
Others are a-biological, such as ocean degassing from the lower solubility of CO2 in
warm versus cool
water and also melting of methane clathrates (ice with trapped methane, which is more potent
than CO2 as a greenhouse gas.
In the case of a failure of the surface to
warm due to a La Nina - like process, the OLR reduction (and hence the energy gain) will be lessened by the reduction in
water vapor and
other feedback moieties, but it will still be greater
than occurs with a
warmed surface.
The
other replies suggest volcano input is comparable to the background geothermal flux, which in turn is much less
than the fluxes through the pycnocline from the
warm Atlantic
water, and to a lesser extent, the Pacific inflow.
This definitely supports the
other research we've seen on
warmer than expected
water in the fjords of Greenland, etc..
Ocean
waters around Antarctica have
warmed steadily for the past 50 years, but in addition to that, the region's shallow seas are also heating up, more quickly
than others.
For instance, perfect initialization of the state of the Atlantic ocean, a correct simulation of the next 10 years of the solar cycle, a proper inclusion of stratospheric
water vapor, etc may be important for whether the next 5 years are
warmer than the previous 5, but it has nothing to do with climate sensitivity,
water vapor feedback, or
other issues.
In the UK a lot of workplaces now have aircon and sometimes
warm air ducted heating, but in homes anything
other than hot
water radiators is unusual and a / c is rarer still.
Let the
water vapor or some
other greenhouse gas be reduced, and the
warm earth will be losing more heat
than it gains from sunlight.
Water vapor is more difficult to measure
than the
other greenhouse gases and scientists are uncertain as to the exact part that it plays in global
warming.
These glaciers act as a
water storage tower for South and East Asia, releasing melt
water in
warm months to the Indus, Ganges, Brahmaputra and
other river systems, providing fresh
water to more
than a billion people.
As written above, it is natural that lands
warm (cool) faster
than seas: but, I think, it would be much better for studying GW (there are many
other issues for lands even without GW) to point on
waters rather
than on inhabited lands (with a simple condition: all
waters; not saying that Arctic pack is decreasing, making silence on Antarctic pack because it instead doesn't fit AGW theories).
For more
than a decade, officials in Ecuador's mountainous capital have been studying the effects of global
warming on nearby melting glaciers, developing ways of dealing with potential
water shortages and even organizing conferences on climate change for leaders of
other Latin American cities.
Warm summers do allow sea ice to melt, but without the warm water, the Arctic would be more like Antarctica and never thaw, other than a few pudd
Warm summers do allow sea ice to melt, but without the
warm water, the Arctic would be more like Antarctica and never thaw, other than a few pudd
warm water, the Arctic would be more like Antarctica and never thaw,
other than a few puddles.
Carbon dioxide is the biggest long - term human - generated contributor to global
warming —
other molecules like methane and
water vapor are also greenhouse gases, but their levels are more or less constant; the amount of anthropogenic CO2 has been going up steadily for decades and is higher now
than in any point in human history.
Even with
warming of 2 °C, we can expect to see adverse effects on
water availability in critical river basins, a more
than doubling of forest fires in Amazonia by 2050, impacted coral reef recovery from bleaching events, among
other effects.
Shifts in clouds,
water vapor, and the great currents in the ocean and air, however, cause complex responses in which some regions
warm more
than the average while
others warm less
than average, or even cool.
Still
others have expanded on the degree to which CO2 is better absorbed by cold
water than warm.
WHEN the skin layer is
warmer than the
water below (and not mixed by the wind), there is no obvious mechanism (
other than very slow conduction) for AGG - enhanced DLR to penetrate the ocean.
«
Other research is beginning to show that cyclical changes in
water vapour — a much more powerful greenhouse gas
than carbon dioxide — may account for much of the 20th - century
warming.»
Water vapor, which is a greenhouse gas, albeit short lived, and a component of and response to weather conditions — but not, being so ephemeral, a driver of much longer term weather patterns (or climate)-- and due to it's heavy prevalence the greenhouse gas that is on average responsible for more re ra - radiated heat
than any
other, in fact is not
warming, but cooling.
Note: LOTI provides a more realistic representation of the global mean trends
than dTs below; it slightly underestimates
warming or cooling trends, since the much larger heat capacity of
water compared to air causes a slower and diminished reaction to changes; dTs on the
other hand overestimates trends, since it disregards most of the dampening effects of the oceans that cover about two thirds of the Earth's surface.
This is because
warm water or
other fluids occupy a greater volume
than cold ones.
A study published recently in the journal Nature Communications, found that it only took 1 C of
warming in the last 18 years to change the ecosystem in Lake Hazen on Ellesmere Island in Nunavut — which holds more
water than any
other lake in the High Arctic.
The treated fabric is much more hydrophilic
than the fabric by itself (which only absorbs about 18 % of its own weight), and yet when the temperature gets
warmer, the fabric becomes hydrophobic and releases all of the absorbed
water (as pure
water) without any
other further action.
Bionic leaves that could produce energy - dense fuels from nothing more
than sunlight,
water and atmosphere -
warming carbon dioxide, with no byproducts
other than oxygen, represent an ideal alternative to fossil fuels but also pose numerous scientific challenges.
The «note» you refer to goes: «Note: LOTI provides a more realistic representation of the global mean trends
