The most remote parts of the planet crossed the 400 parts per million threshold this year, while world leaders pledge to try to do something to slow the quickening rise of the heat - trapping gas.

On the other hand, if the ice shell is sufficiently thick, the less intense interior heat can be transferred to warmer ice at the bottom of the shell, with additional heat generated by tidal flexing of the warmer ice which can slowly rise and flow as do glaciers do on Earth; this slow but steady motion may also disrupt the extremely cold, brittle ice at the surface to produce the chaos regions.

Interestingly, those same winds are thought to be part of the mechanism burying heat in the Pacific Ocean, leading to the slower pace of rising temperatures at the planet's surface in recent decades.

Global surface temperatures have continued to rise steadily beneath short - term natural cooling effects, and the rise in global heat content has not slowed at all.

Sparklers ignite the night sky; five explosions go off in slow - mo sequence like the frames of a thriller; a rose flares open in the heat.

If it would warm 5 degrees this century, which seem quite possible, that would be about 100 times faster than the average rate during the last deglaciation, although I suppose ocean heat content rises somewhat slower.

Ideas that commonly surface include perturbations to the earth's orbit by other planets, disruptions of ocean currents, the rise and fall of greenhouse gases, heat reflection by snow, continental drift, comet impacts, Genesis floods, volcanoes, and slow changes in the irradiance of the sun.

However, if the air continues to cool below freezing point then, although the nett flow of heat from the water is greater while the water is in the process of freezing, the air temperature does not rise and will continue to tend to fall, albeit at a slower rate.

I haven't looked at the research paper in detail, but the general slowing of sea level rise after 2004 - 2005 fits in with the sharp acceleration of heat uptake into the ocean during 2000 - 2005, and a slower rate of heat uptake thereafter.

The recent trend in sea level rise is consistent with ocean heat uptake, so we shouldn't be surprised that the recent trend in sea level rise has slowed somewhat too.

If the air temperature starts rising then the rate of heat flow from the water to the air slows down and the water consequently stops freezing, so the latent energy falls and so the temperature tends to stabilize at that point.

The IPCC projections of sea level rise are based largely on the slow, steady and inexorable thermal expansion of the oceans (as water heats, its volume increases) with some additional contributions from the melting of mountain glaciers (almost all of which are expected to be gone by mid century).

Heat melts Rock like ice and this thuderhead of magma rises high in the geo - sky to bring heat to sea level, thus balancing the core «s heat output when it's radiative rate is slowed by the R - value of the gas atmosphHeat melts Rock like ice and this thuderhead of magma rises high in the geo - sky to bring heat to sea level, thus balancing the core «s heat output when it's radiative rate is slowed by the R - value of the gas atmosphheat to sea level, thus balancing the core «s heat output when it's radiative rate is slowed by the R - value of the gas atmosphheat output when it's radiative rate is slowed by the R - value of the gas atmosphere.

People are already experiencing the impacts of climate change through slow onset changes, for example sea level rise and greater variability in the seasonality of rainfall, and through extreme weather events, particularly extremes of heat, rainfall and coastal storm surges.

Global surface temperatures have continued to rise steadily beneath short - term natural cooling effects, and the rise in global heat content has not slowed at all.

Any temperature rise that would occur due the slowing of the Northern and Southern Pacific equatorial currents («gets heated day after day by the equatorial Sun») would be countered by the increase in cloud amount, which would reduce downward shortwave radiation.

«In our mor recent global model simulations the ocean heat - uptake is slower than previously estimated, the ocean uptake of carbon is weaker, feedbacks from the land system as temperature rises are stronger, cumulative emissions of greenhouse gases over the century are higher, and offsetting cooling from aerosol emissions is lower.

But by using it as analogy for the earth climate (not my idea) it would just demonstrate temperatures DO rise when «material» is added which SLOWS heat transfer to the outside while there's no similar slow down of heat supply.

The sea level rise commitment due to thermal expansion has much longer time scales than the surface warming commitment, owing to the slow processes that mix heat into the deep ocean (Church et al., 2001).

«The overall slow decrease of upwelling SW flux from the mid-1980's until the end of the 1990's and subsequent increase from 2000 onwards appear to caused, primarily, by changes in global cloud cover (although there is a small increase of cloud optical thickness after 2000) and is confirmed by the ERBS measurements... The overall slight rise (relative heating) of global total net flux at TOA between the 1980's and 1990's is confirmed in the tropics by the ERBS measurements and exceeds the estimated climate forcing changes (greenhouse gases and aerosols) for this period.

Whether it heats up, slows down or stops entirely, there are always ways to rise above and continue to succeed.
