Not exact matches

However, interest in more recent international developments remained slight, as was shown by the cool reception given to several exhibitions - a small show of works by Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Sisley, d'Espagnat, Maufra and Moret, held in the Amsterdam artists» society Arti et Amicitiae early in 1900; the large retrospective of Toorop in the Buffa Gallery in February 1904; and the Van Gogh retrospective in summer 1905 organized by Theo Van Gogh's widow in the Stedelijk Museum.

«Although previous reports suggest slight recent continental warming, our spatial analysis of Antarctic meteorological data demonstrates a net cooling on the Antarctic continent between 1966 and 2000, particularly during summer and autumn.»

Contrary to the recent mythology of a global cooling scare in the 1970s, the NDU report (published in 1978) concluded that, «Collectively, the respondents tended to anticipate a slight global warming rather than a cooling».

What is happening here is that the two (Hansen and Trenberth) whom you describe as «not, in fact, fanatics blinded by dogma» were surprised by the recent «lack of warming» (i.e. slight cooling) of the atmosphere as well as the upper ocean, despite CO2 increase to record levels, as this does not provide much support for the premise that human CO2 is driving our climate.

If previous patterns are repeated, any slight recent cooling will be followed by a steep jump.

How» bout we respond with: «the same mechanism that has caused the observed recent decade of slight cooling despite unabated human CO2 emissions and concentrations reaching record levels»?

In fact, depending on the endpoints chosen, recent warming has been modest or even negative (slight cooling).

Manacker, this argument «observed recent decade of slight cooling [of surface temps] despite unabated human CO2 emissions and concentrations reaching record levels» would be relevant if it was posited that CO2 is the only influence on climate.

The most recent «lack of warming» despite CO2 levels reaching record heights appears to me to very likely be the start of a new multi-decadal cycle of slight cooling, as Girma has also suggested.

They were poor in forecasting (or «projecting») decadal warming: 0.2 C per decade (AR4) or 0.15 to 0.3 C per decade (TAR), compared to an actually observed slight cooling over the most recent decade.

Regarding clouds, recent trends suggest a slight decline in total cloud cover over several decades, due to a reduction in low clouds, which exert a net cooling influence, while high cirrus clouds, which are net warmers, have remained relatively constant.

My estimate is that between ~ 80 % to 120 % of the observed trend in recent decades is human - forced — i.e. which allows for 0.1 to 0.2 degC / dec either way for internal variability — natural forcings are a slight cooling factor on these timescales so that would imply a higher attribution to human causes.

Assessments of Antarctic temperature change have emphasized the contrast between strong warming of the Antarctic Peninsula and slight cooling of the Antarctic continental interior in recent decades.

N - G: Estimation of surface temperature changes in poorly - covered regions is enough to reverse the slight cooling in the recent decadal averages in HadCRUT4, turning it into a slowing rather than a hiatus according to your definition.
