The project is meant to counter «the world's current climate of chaos and divisiveness» and bring people together with displays created by artists including Nick Cave and Ebony G. Patterson.

Since the heat storage capacity of the ocean is > 1000 times that of the atmosphere, having a solid handle on all these is crucial to accurately projecting even average mean climate across multi-decadal time.

This means that the heat content was «reset» to this earlier value, whereas the multi-decadal global climate model projects a more - or-less monotonic increase in ocean heat content.

Since the projected surface forcing changes come from a climate model (s) the underlying assumption is that the important ice - ocean feedbacks are captured in the superimposed forcing changes, so it really isn't an independent test and not meant to be a substitute for a coupled model.

The project aims to the renewal of the scientific knowledge base and provide for decision making smart means, solutions and tools needed to sustainably improve resource - efficiency and climate - neutrality of management and utilization of Finnish forests.

The disclosures reveal that 14 % percent of CDP's corporate respondents practice «offset - inclusive carbon management,» meaning that they are investing in hundreds of unique emissions reduction projects — from forestry in Belize to wind energy in India to clean cookstoves in Zambia — in addition to directly reducing their climate impact through energy efficiency, improved product design and other measures.

The results of the analysis demonstrate that relative to the reference case, projected atmospheric CO2 concentrations are estimated by 2100 to be reduced by 3.29 to 3.68 part per million by volume (ppmv), global mean temperature is estimated to be reduced by 0.0076 to 0.0184 °C, and sea - level rise is projected to be reduced by approximately 0.074 — 0.166 cm, based on a range of climate sensitivities.

In other words: Increased fertilizer use alone would likely mean that either of those projects would increase greenhouse gas emissions overall and thus make climate change even worse.

For example, the latest (fifth) assessment report from the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) projects that the global average sea level rise over the course of the 21st century would be in the range of 10 to 32 inches, with a mean value of about 19 inches.

Above: the projected emissions gap in 2030 in the UNEP report shows that countries are not planning to make the necessary GHG emissions reductions to avoid overshooting our carbon «budget», meaning that large - scale CDR would be necessary to fill the gap and prevent climate change.

It can't be said too often that climate models are merely contrivances meant to project a future warming trend indefinitely.

Through connected projects and collaborations, I examine how climate science and policy find meaning in people's everyday lives, and how this, in turn, feeds back into science and policy decision - making.

Climate change projections have vastly underestimated the role that clouds play, meaning future warming could be far worse than is currently projected, according to new research.

The fact that the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) ensemble mean accurately represents observed global OHC changes [Cheng et al., 2016] is critical for establishing the reliability of climate models for long - term climate change projections.

In this way, we can obtain the expected range of projected climate trends using the interannual statistics of the observed NAO record in combination with the model's radiatively - forced response (given by the ensemble - mean of the 40 simulations).

This approach provides a hybrid assessment of the combined influence of anthropogenic climate change [determined from the ensemble - mean of the CESM - LE or from the multi-model Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 5 (CMIP5) archive (Taylor et al. 2012)-RSB- and observed NAO variability on climate over the coming decades.

Even the project's leader didn't seem to be making consistent statements about what his research meant for the climate change debate.

According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, these stabilization targets are consistent with keeping eventual mean projected global warming to about 1.5 oC and 2.5 oC above current levels, respectively (this would be on top of temperatures rises of about 0.75 oC over the last century).

Wang, 5.0 (± 0.27), Modeling A projected September Arctic sea ice extent of 5.0 million km2 is based on a NCEP ensemble mean CFSv2 forecast initialized from the NCEP Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) that assimilates observed sea ice concentrations and other atmospheric and oceanic observations.

That means that export credit agencies must immediately stop financing all coal, oil and gas projects to avert the worst impacts of climate change.

Models can not be wrong as they only «project» and not «predict»; apparently the meanings are quite different and only morons outside of Climate Science can not understand the difference between the two.

In the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Bindoff et al. (2007) projected a mean global sea level rise somewhere in the range of 18 - 59 cm relative to mean global sea level in 1990.

UN climate talks have so far failed to agree a role for a forestry - based carbon market in a future carbon reduction treaty, meaning private sector investors have very little idea of financial returns from projects that save trees.
