The odd - numbered solar cycles, which for reasons unknown (to me anyway) have a stronger effect on global climate than the even ones.

Not exact matches

Dr Li said the latest research findings give a better understanding of changes in human - perceived equivalent temperature, and indicate global warming has stronger long - term impacts on human beings under both extreme and non-extreme weather conditions, suggesting that climate change adaptation can not just focus on heat wave events, but should be extended to the whole range of effects of temperature increases.

There, they define climate sensitivity as how strong an effect doubling CO2 will have on average global temperature.

There is absolutely no reason to believe that this effect will do anything but get stronger from here on as the vast «crops» of oceanic bacteria adapt to both warmer ocean waters and increased CO2 and nutrient levels and simply increasingly cool the global atmospheric climate simply by «growing faster»!

It should also be remembered that solar forcing affects the NH climate disproportionately stronger than the global climate due to high energy UV effects on the jet stream patterns.

In a sharp change from its cautious approach in the past, the National Academy of Sciences on Wednesday called for taxes on carbon emissions, a cap - and - trade program for such emissions or some other strong action to curb runaway global warming.Such actions, which would increase the cost of using coal and petroleum — at least in the immediate future — are necessary because «climate change is occurring, the Earth is warming... concentrations of carbon dioxide are increasing, and there are very clear fingerprints that link [those effects] to humans,» said Pamela A. Matson of Stanford University, who chaired one of five panels organized by the academy at the request of Congress to look at the science of climate change and how the nation should respond.

Thus it's applicable to global climate on timescales that are long compared to the time scales needed to spread the influence of a strong local effect to global dimensions.

A stronger solar effect on the climate would also imply a significantly larger solar contribution to the 20th century global warming, as demonstrated in some works (Scafetta 2009, 2013a, b, c).
