Sentences with phrase «swings in temperature as»

Unfortunately, there is actually quite good model agreement on the overall pattern over the East Pacific through the end of the month: the huge ridge over the Eastern Pacific is expected to persist and perhaps grow even more, continuing the extraordinarily dry pattern over California but allowing for occasionally large swings in temperature as a very cold airmass over Canada is occasionally able to spill westward in weak or even slightly retrogressive (east to west) zonal flow.

They don't work as well in cloudy climates or where there isn't a large diurnal temperature swing.
Furthermore natural global temperature swings alter the natural background greenhouse effect constantly as water vapour held in the atmosphere increases and decreases naturally with changing global temperatures.
Unfortunately, the Stadium Wave is only contributing approximately + / - 0.1 C temperature swings to the global temperature signal — this pales in comparison to the 0.8 C secular trend (so far) we are seeing, due to the CO2 acting as an clear and aggressive control knob on the climate.
If there is as much of 60 K daylight reduction - that by itself knocks average 24 hr temperature by 30 C. And would reduce the swing in high and low temperature [reducing variation by 60 K].

Obviously, since 1996, the last 18 years has witnessed its normal wide variation in temperature swings but the overall linear trends are cooling for all three datasets, NOT WARMING as predicted.
Climate change is the change in weather pattern due to natural, periodic and cyclical swings in temperatures such as the ice age which covers a much longer period of time usually for thousands of years.
I find it amusing that they're referring to a.9 degree Celsius warming as being «unprecedented» considering that by comparison, there are larger temperature swings than noted in the study by the Brown University group.

Soil temperature varies from month to month as a function of incident solar radiation, rainfall, seasonal swings in overlying air temperature, local vegetation cover, type of soil, and depth in the earth.
Now, as the global trend swings from warming to cooling these winds switched from zonal to meridional flow causing dramatic increases in variability of temperature and precipitation.
If you think about it and if they «are» right about both the causes and the effects (melting ice caps, raising sea levels — e.g. increased ocean surface worldwide, increased surface temperatures on land and at sea and erratic excesses in weather) then the results may well be an eventual drastic swing the other day as we see increases in reflection, evaporation and conversion of «greenhouse» gases back into inert forms!
Spencer has postulated elsewhere that natural factors, such as PDO swings, might be the underlying cause for changes in cloud cover, which result in changes in global temperature, IOW that clouds act as part of a natural forcing, rather than simply a feedback to anthropogenic (or other) forcing.

The key factor is something called wet - bulb temperature, which is a term of measurement as home - laboratory - kit as it sounds: the heat registered on a thermometer wrapped in a damp sock as it's swung around in the air (since the moisture evaporates from a sock more quickly in dry air, this single number reflects both heat and humidity).
This sharp, unprecedented rise in the average global temperature during the last decade of the 20th century can not be explained as a temporary swing produced by natural causes alone, and its is very likely that heat - trapping waste gases are at least partly responsible for it.
