Unknown is what the overall effect of greenhouse gases / temperature was / is / will be on cloud cover.

Not exact matches

Overall these aerosol effects promote cooling that could offset the warming effect of long - lived greenhouse gases to some extent.

Christoph Schar of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and his colleagues investigated the effects of greenhouse gases on weather variability as well as general overall temperatures.

Ocean heat content variability is thus a critical variable for detecting the effects of the observed increase in greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere and for resolving the Earth's overall energy balance.

ii) The respective absorption bands for each trace gas will be exhausted long before the volumes of those gases in the atmosphere become big enough to make a measurable difference to the overall density of the atmosphere and the size of the greenhouse effect which is density dependent.

To me all the witnesses and senators are obviously persons of consequence but I don't think your excerpt shows that anyone should think he takes issue with this statement — «No one questions that surface temperatures have increased overall since 1880, or that humans are adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, or that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases have a warming effect on the planet.»

The latest research suggests that it amounts to about 4 percent of the «radiative forcing,» which is the fancy term scientists use to talk about the overall warming effects of greenhouse gases.

This availability of natural gas supplies does reduce the buildup of greenhouse gasses, but the effects are not very significant in terms of the overall threat of global warming.

Bated, A warming lower troposphere results from increased greenhouse gases in the troposphere, with differing effects on other regions of the overall atmosphere (cooling in the stratosphere and mesosphere for example).

Now of course I well understand the issues with ocean heat content measurements, especially prior to 2003 or so, but I think there is enough reliability to give you a good picture of the overall energy imbalance effects rippling down to the atmosphere and oceans as reflected by the 1 w / m ^ 2 TOA imbalance induced by the rising levels of greenhouse gases.

Finally, the fact that both the oceans and the atmosphere are at their all time highest temperatures over the past 10 year average from instrument record and through extrapolation to near - term paleodata, we can see a remarkable consistent effect of what increasing greenhouse gases do to overall alterations in Earth's non-tectonic energy storage.

And if the models are good enough to accurately model the effects of geoengineering, then perhaps we should trust what they tell us about addressing global climate disruption, namely that cutting greenhouse gas emissions is the best way to curtail overall climate disruption.

The $ 11,000 in greenhouse gases is a small effect overall, and the analysis of the SGIP gave CESA important information, Morris said.
