Sentences with phrase «reducing uncertainties in climate sensitivity»

The top priorities should be reducing uncertainties in climate sensitivity, getting a better understanding of the effect of climate change on atmospheric circulation (critical for understanding of regional climate change, changes in extremes) and reducing uncertainties in radiative forcing — particularly those associated with aerosols.

Not exact matches

The method proposed in my poster for reducing the uncertainty in the delay, and therefore in the climate sensitivity, was to fit F (v) to F3 (HadCRUT3) to determine the V for which F (V) is the best fit, where Hansen delay is one of those nine parameters.

In fairness, there remains considerable uncertainty in aerosol effects, but if there will be real progress in narrowing the credible range for climate sensitivity, it has to come from reducing the still too wide uncertainty in aerosol effects, not from flogging climate models which assume aerosol offsets inconsistent with the best available measured effectIn fairness, there remains considerable uncertainty in aerosol effects, but if there will be real progress in narrowing the credible range for climate sensitivity, it has to come from reducing the still too wide uncertainty in aerosol effects, not from flogging climate models which assume aerosol offsets inconsistent with the best available measured effectin aerosol effects, but if there will be real progress in narrowing the credible range for climate sensitivity, it has to come from reducing the still too wide uncertainty in aerosol effects, not from flogging climate models which assume aerosol offsets inconsistent with the best available measured effectin narrowing the credible range for climate sensitivity, it has to come from reducing the still too wide uncertainty in aerosol effects, not from flogging climate models which assume aerosol offsets inconsistent with the best available measured effectin aerosol effects, not from flogging climate models which assume aerosol offsets inconsistent with the best available measured effects.

Knowing that the spread in ECS is mostly related to uncertainties in low - cloud feedback, it seems obvious that constraining how low clouds respond to global warming can reduce the spread of climate sensitivity among models.

«Reducing the wide range of uncertainty inherent in current model predictions of global climate change will require major advances in understanding and modeling of both (1) the factors that determine atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases and aerosols, and (2) the so - called «feedbacks» that determine the sensitivity of the climate system to a prescribed increase in greenhouse gases.»

Reducing these uncertainties would go a long way toward narrowing uncertainty in climate sensitivity and constraining GCM's.

The results reduced uncertainty in proxy records and improved earlier estimates and contribute to our understanding of climate change today, especially the findings hint at a higher climate sensitivity to CO2 emissions.

Therefore, more priority should be placed on reducing the uncertainty in the Damage Function and less on trying to improve the uncertainty in the climate sensitivity.

Schwartz (2004) argues that uncertainties in aerosol forcing must be reduced at least three-fold for uncertainty in climate sensitivity to be meaningfully reduced and bounded.
