Sentences with phrase «seasonal climate sensitivity»

«Given the current uncertainties in both the reconstruction and model sensitivity, however, this model - data discrepancy could be attributed to either the seasonal bias in the SST reconstructions or the model bias in regional and seasonal climate sensitivity.

Knutti, R., G.A. Meehl, M.R. Allen and D.A. Stainforth, 2006: Constraining climate sensitivity from the seasonal cycle in surface temperature.

(If there were a bigger seasonal signal in the tropical oceans, I am pretty sure that our uncertainty about climate sensitivity would be a whole lot smaller.)

Since this does not include any climatic variations (not even the seasonal cycle), let alone a test period with a different CO2 level, this data test is unable to constrain the upper limit of the climate sensitivity range.

Charney sensitivity refers to the climate sensitivity when fast - reacting feedbacks (Planck response is a given — also, water vapor, clouds,... I think sea ice, seasonal snow) occur but with other things (land - based ice sheets,... vegetation -LRB-?)-RRB-

Knutti et al. (2006), using a different, perturbed physics ensemble, showed that models with a strong seasonal cycle in surface temperature tended to have larger climate sensitivity.

A recent study by C10 analysed a number of different climate variables in a set of SMEs of HadCM3 (Gordon et al. 2000, atmosphere — ocean coupled version of HadSM3) from the point of view of global - scale model errors and climate change forcings and feedbacks, and compared them with variables derived from the CMIP3 MME. Knutti et al. (2006) examined another SME based on the HadSM3 model, and found a strong relationship between the magnitude of the seasonal cycle and climate sensitivity, which was not reproduced in the CMIP3 ensemble.

Observations of recent global warming, short - term cooling after major volcanic eruptions, cooling at the Last Glacial Maximum and other periods in the historical record, and the seasonal variation in climate, all provide some information which helps to determine the value of climate sensitivity.
