As you can see from the linked congressional statement, Mann carefully qualified how he defined denier to something that does fit what Judith Curry denies, namely» the fact that human activity is substantially or entirely responsible for the large -
scale warming we have seen over the past century».
He notes «I use the term carefully — reserving it for those who deny the most basic findings of the scientific community, which includes the fact that human activity is substantially or entirely responsible for the large -
scale warming we have seen over the past century».
Not exact matches
I
have not examined the economic data, but it appears that M&M 2007 maybe can not win — either (i) the spatial distribution of the economic indices are equally smooth and M&M 2007's attempt to account for dependencies within each country fails to resolve the problem of dependency between the countries, or (ii) the economic indices vary abruptly from country to country and thus
have very different spatial
scales and structures to those
seen in the
warming trends.

North Carolina's
warming to virtual schools will be welcome news to investors, who
have seen online charter schools in other states
scale back their involvement with K12, Inc. as school leaders take over the management functions from the company.
Now after two days he held his head up, stuck his tail up and by Tuesday he was moving around.I kept him on Clavamox for a week just in case he was getting a cold.I was also putting fluids under his skin several times a day.One week later Friday the 31 st.he was eating up to 5cc of milk.He only weighed 2 oz.on the vets
scale and 4 oz.on my
scale.Today November 16,2008 my husband
has named him Beetle Bug and he is 6 weeks old Monday November 17,2008, and only weighs 5 oz.He walks, plays, pees and poops on his own.Why he even
has his teeth coming in.I took him to show the vet and I
saw a huge smile on his face.I just wanted to thank him for taking the time to show me how to tube feed a puppy his size as I felt more at ease now doing it.I was just afraid to try it.He told me he didn't think the puppy
would make it, and told me I was the one who saved him, not him.I believe Jesus sent me to him that day for the vet to show me how to tube feed; for if I ever was in that situation ever again.And I believe it was Jesus working through me that saved that puppy.The part of this story and hopefully it might save a puppy out there someday is Never give up.Remember Heat is the most important factor.Get your puppy
warm and it might save their life.
In essence, the authors
have revisited a question posed earlier in a paper by Willie Soon and Sallie Baliunas (2003:
see our previous discussion here), investigating whether or not evidence from past proxy records of temperature support the existence of past intervals of warmth with the widespread global
scale of 20th century
warming.
However, I
've never
seen a single media article in any U.S. press outlet that covered these issues — the large -
scale evidence for global
warming (melting glaciers,
warming poles, shrinking sea ice, ocean temperatures) to the local
scale (more intense hurricanes, more intense precipitation, more frequent droughts and heat waves) while also discussing the real causes (fossil fuels and deforestation) and the real solutions (replacement of fossil fuels with renewables, limiting deforestation, and halting the use of fossil fuels, especially coal and oil.)
The little ice age came and went, visibly but insignificant compared to the
scale of the
warming we
've seen in the last 140 years.
The response of low clouds to
warming is uncertain because the dynamics governing low clouds occur on
scales of tens of meters, whereas climate models
have horizontal grid spacings of 50 — 100 km (
see the sketch at the top).
You propose the so - called
saw tooth as
having it's cause in a massive seismic event that produced decadal
scale warming on a planetary
scale.
... «When you hear a phrase like he said, «the highest ever,» you know, «off the charts,» «record setting,» that's a good sign that on top of a whatever local weather patterns there are or regional like El Nino, global
warming, fossil fuel driven climate change is putting its finger on the
scale and juicing the atmosphere and causing the even bigger weather event than you
would have otherwise
seen.»
Since the extra heat, mainly in the the oceans is the equivalent of
warming the atmophere by 42 °C, if this heat
had been extracted from the atmosphere to
warm the oceans we
would have seen a drop in Air temperatures of a similar
scale: ≈ 40 °C or so of atmospheric cooling.
I'm very convinced that the physical process of global
warming is continuing, which appears as a statistically significant increase of the global surface and tropospheric temperature anomaly over a time
scale of about 20 years and longer and also as trends in other climate variables (e.g., global ocean heat content increase, Arctic and Antarctic ice decrease, mountain glacier decrease on average and others), and I don't
see any scientific evidence according to which this trend
has been broken, recently.
Recent work (e.g., Hurrell 1995, 1996; Thompson and Wallace 1998; Corti et al., 1999)
has suggested that the observed
warming over the last few decades may be manifest as a change in frequency of these naturally preferred patterns (Chapters 2 and 7) and there is now considerable interest in testing the ability of climate models to simulate such weather regimes (Chapter 8) and to
see whether the greenhouse gas forced runs suggest shifts in the residence time or transitions between such regimes on long time -
scales.
Over the last 1000 years, we
see that (again using a reversed
scale of C14 as a proxy) solar activity is highly correlated with long term temperature trends (I
have used the pre-Mann chart, because while it may over-emphasize the Medieval
Warm Period, I still think such a period existed).
Jelle Bijma http://www.awi.de/People/show?jbijma seems to
have a sufficiently solid scientific background, even if his research interests — Ocean
Warming and Acidification; Proxy Development and Innovation; The Earth System on Long Time
Scales — are ones we
see too much confidence about in the broader debate.
By calculating this Libration forcing on a time
scale, you will
see, that global
warming has stopped at 2000 and stays flat as Plateau for the next decades until 2043.
The past several years
have been
warmer than even the historically
warm time periods, so to test our prediction, we needed to go back to places where those old branches were originally collected, and
see if their
scale infestations
had actually gotten worse.
The reasons for that are many: the timid language of scientific probabilities, which the climatologist James Hansen once called «scientific reticence» in a paper chastising scientists for editing their own observations so conscientiously that they failed to communicate how dire the threat really was; the fact that the country is dominated by a group of technocrats who believe any problem can be solved and an opposing culture that doesn't even
see warming as a problem worth addressing; the way that climate denialism
has made scientists even more cautious in offering speculative warnings; the simple speed of change and, also, its slowness, such that we are only
seeing effects now of
warming from decades past; our uncertainty about uncertainty, which the climate writer Naomi Oreskes in particular
has suggested stops us from preparing as though anything worse than a median outcome were even possible; the way we assume climate change will hit hardest elsewhere, not everywhere; the smallness (two degrees) and largeness (1.8 trillion tons) and abstractness (400 parts per million) of the numbers; the discomfort of considering a problem that is very difficult, if not impossible, to solve; the altogether incomprehensible
scale of that problem, which amounts to the prospect of our own annihilation; simple fear.
I do think your time in doing this
would be really valuable to young people who
see global
warming as a war or global crisis on the
scale of a global depression.
If greenhouse
warming causes a substantial increase in Atlantic hurricane activity, then the century
scale increase in tropical Atlantic SSTs since the late 1800s should
have produced a long - term rise in measures of Atlantic hurricanes activity, similar to that
seen for global temperature, for example.
The current
warming trend is of particular significance because most of it is extremely likely (greater than 95 percent probability) to be the result of human activity since the mid-20th century and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia.1 Earth - orbiting satellites and other technological advances
have enabled scientists to
see the big picture, collecting many different types of information about our planet and its climate on a global
scale.
Some EMICs
have been used to investigate both the climate of the last glacial maximum (
see Section 8.5) as well as to investigate the cause of the collapse of the conveyor in global
warming experiments (Stocker and Schmittner, 1997; Rahmstorf and Ganopolski, 1999) while others
have been used to undertake a number of sensitivity studies including the role of sub-grid
scale ocean mixing in global
warming experiments (Wiebe and Weaver, 1999).
