Not exact matches

Decoding Earth's CO2 history It is quite difficult to reconstruct temperatures 3 million years ago, of course.

For example, the reconstructed changes of past temperature, salinity, CO2 ‐ system parameters, and Ca2 + and Mg2 + themselves have large uncertainties, which calls into question the suitability of a seemingly convoluted approach such as a Pitzer model in the first place.

The most commonly used sea level rise reconstruct is Church & White and the one likely used by Victor to make his pointless claims about correlation of sea level rise to CO2 or even temperatures.

Reconstructing holocene temperatures is no longer just acedemic when we are pouring 30 + billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere a year.

The response of atmospheric CO2 and climate to the reconstructed variability in solar irradiance and radiative forcing by volcanoes over the last millennium is examined by applying a coupled physical — biogeochemical climate model that includes the Lund - Potsdam - Jena dynamic global vegetation model (LPJ - DGVM) and a simplified analogue of a coupled atmosphere — ocean general circulation model.

It would be rather nice if someone (come on Mosher, Stokes) could reconstruct the Earths temperature after the CO2 signal has been removed, using the most likely value for TCS / ECS and F Lewis and Curry identify.

The situation is not dissimilar with most paleo, reconstructed or otherwise, with a few notable exceptions in the area of the CO2 record from ice cores..

And coal can be a tool in reconstructing atmospheric CO2 at particular geological moments.

The inconvenient ice / air age adjustment that is necessary in order to align that false historic record with the recent MLO estimates is another aspect of the attempts to reconstruct past atmospheric CO2 content which warrants careful independent scrutiny, along with the dubious statistical manipulations that are carried out in order to produce the MLO estimates of recent CO2 increase.

The scenario presented here is in contrast to [CO2] records reconstructed from air bubbles trapped in ice, which indicate lower concen - trations and a gradual, linear increase of [CO2] through time.»

Thus, our approach is to examine Earth system sensitivity to CO2 change by calculating the CO2 history required to produce our reconstructed Cenozoic temperature history for alternative state - independent and state - dependent climate sensitivities.

The WLS series may then be regressed on temperature and CO2 (in the case of TRW) and the relation solved for temperature to reconstruct pre-instrumental temperatures.

According to the authors, «if you reconstruct temperatures on a global scale — and not just examine Antarctic temperatures — it becomes apparent that the CO2 change slightly preceded much of the global warming, and this means the global greenhouse effect had an important role in driving up global temperatures and bringing the planet out of the last Ice Age.»

Statistical inference is a subject close to my heart, and I am particularly interested in the methods used to reconstruct historical temperatures from various proxies, as well as CO2 content.

Comparing computer simulations with reconstructed ocean warming and sediment dissolution during the event, we could narrow our estimate of CO2 release during the event to 7,000 — 10,000 GtC.
