Not exact matches

To figure out the economic cost of a decade of extreme methane release — say from 2015 to 2025 — the researchers added the extra methane and temperature increases to the climate models through to 2200 — that's how they got the $ 60 trillion cost globally from just the East Siberian Arctic Shelf.

Temperature Settings: The majority of heat guns will put out a stream of air somewhere between 200 and 1000 Fahrenheit, while other commercial models can get much hotter.

Climate models have always offered a range of possible temperature rises, but it turns out the ones that best fit what's happened so far all predict even greater warming

The flaring of M - dwarfs seems to die down over time, and new climate models suggest that even a locked planet could be habitable because its atmosphere would help even out the temperatures.

It turned out that a doubling of carbon dioxide had always gone along with a 3 °C temperature rise, give or take a degree or two — a striking confirmation of the computer models, from entirely independent evidence.

That's according to research out of Stanford University, which analyzed more than 50 climate model simulations of 21st century temperatures under elevated greenhouse gas levels.

Because the range of modeled wet bulb globe temperatures in a given time and place was narrow, even small increases quickly moved a region out of its historical range, making it easy to see the steady rise in humid warmth.

Since some of these models have been fitted to the temperature record, and the temperature record has been shown to be suspect, isn't it a case of garbage in, garbage out?

Wigley et al. (1997) pointed out that uncertainties in forcing and response made it impossible to use observed global temperature changes to constrain ECS more tightly than the range explored by climate models at the time (1.5 °C to 4.5 °C), and particularly the upper end of the range, a conclusion confirmed by subsequent studies.

First, those models were not held out as accurate forecasts of future temperature.

What I find most interesting is that the models are not normally distributed in calculated average surface temperature; there is a relatively tight cluster of models (22 data points) around 14.7 + / - 0.15 C absolute temperature and the rest spread out over 12.3 C to 14.1 C; perhaps the clustered models are based on common assumptions an / or strategies which lead to a relatively consistent calculated average surface temperature.

In my briefings to the Association of Small Island States in Bali, the 41 Island Nations of the Caribbean, Pacific, and Indian Ocean (and later circulated to all member states), I pointed out that IPCC had seriously and systematically UNDERESTIMATED the extent of climate change, showing that the sensitivity of temperature and sea level to CO2 clearly shown by the past climate record in coral reefs, ice cores, and deep sea sediments is orders of magnitude higher than IPCC's models.

Let's see... many models show that aerosols could have been artificially keeping the world's average surface temperature cooler by about 3 - 5 degrees C from 1900 - 2000 --(sulfate aerosols certainly have some certifiable cooling effects cancelling out the warming effects of CO2).

These are things I would like to understand better, but my working hypothesis is that the model simply runs out of high - level cloudiness so the iris - effect stops working at high temperatures.

[Response: For a short period, the planet is still playing «catch up» with the existing forcings, and so we are quite confident in predicting an increase in global temperature of about 0.2 to 0.3 deg C / decade out for 20 years or so, even without a model.

HOWEVER, when you apply the laws of physics to the new end state, ie globe warmed by a few degrees by GHGs, you get a situation where the new Wiens law value (higher driving temperature gives hotter energy spectrum out) and the new Stefan - Boltzmann value, (ie HIGHER energy out) disagree with the physical situation that the model REQUIRES — ie energy out = 99.98 units which is LOWER.

The main problem I have with Michaels is while he reasonably points out the limitations of climate models for forecasting the next one hundred years, he then confidently makes his own forecast of warming continuing at the same rate as for the last thirty years, leading to a 2 degree increase in global temperature.

Trude Storelvmo of Yale University and her colleagues did not use climate models to find out the answer, but they based their calculations on temperature and solar radiation records taken from more than thousands of global measurement sites over the course of 46 years.

We can not rule out the possibility that some of the low - frequency Pacific variability was a forced response to variable solar intensity and changing teleconnections to higher latitudes that are not simulated by the models, or that non-climatic processes have influenced the proxies... the paleodata - model mismatch supports the possibility that unforced, low - frequency internal climate variability (that is difficult for models to simulate) was responsible for at least some of the global temperature change of the past millennium.»

In short, whatever the initial climate sensitivity is to a doubling of CO2, I just can't buy off on this positive feedback loop idea that says that temperatures are going to spin out of control once we pass over some «tipping point» that only seems to exists in some scientist's theoretical model.

Since I'm not one of those who believes testing it is worth lifting a finger for, I'm not really the one to provide it, but I note that the world is not short of those who think otherwise, and who can be relied upon to supply all manner of metrication with their catastrophic alternative hypotheses — polar bears melting, ice - caps dying out, models that project soaring temperatures — you know the sort of thing.

Ed Hawkins, of the University of Reading, in Britain, points out that surface temperatures since 2005 are already at the low end of the range of projections derived from 20 climate models.

In their model, the researchers were able to tease out the impacts of one factor at a time, which allowed them to investigate and quantify the monsoon response to the doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide, increased temperatures and other individual changes.

When I looked at historic temperature and CO2 levels, it was impossible for me to see how they could be in any way consistent with the high climate sensitivities that were coming out of the IPCC models.

If only GHG forcing is used, without aerosols, the surface temperature in the last decade or so is about 0.3 - 0.4 C higher than observations; adding in aerosols has a cooling effect of about 0.3 - 0.4 C (and so cancelling out a portion of the GHG warming), providing a fairly good match between the climate model simulations and the observations.

Thus, they have imposed their preconceived notions of the expected temperature rise on the models to make them come out «right».

It was therefore easily rebutted when I wrote your «totally unsuitable» is contradicted by three papers: Arrhenius's 1896 paper proposing a logarithmic dependence of surface temperature on CO2, Hansen et al's 1985 paper pointing out that the time needed to warm the oceanic mixed layer would delay the impact of global warming, and Hofmann et al's 2009 paper modeling the dependence of CO2 on time as a raised exponential.

This may be something that comes out of the models if you feed them the right input, but it is poppycock if you look at the likely CO2 growth rates and the logarithmic CO2 temperature response (my previous post).

However, it would then be more appropriate to measure the ability of the model to fit the proxies in the validation period rather than its ability to back out temperature, as they apparently have done.

Reviewing the first one in 2000, myself and Chip Knappenberger discovered that the science team just happened to choose the two most extreme models (for temperature and precipitation) out of the 14 they considered.

I should also have given a more complete list of the problems with your objections: in this case your «totally unsuitable» is contradicted by three papers: Arrhenius's 1896 paper proposing a logarithmic dependence of surface temperature on CO2, Hansen et al's 1985 paper pointing out that the time needed to warm the oceanic mixed layer would delay the impact of global warming, and Hofmann et al's 2009 paper modeling the dependence of CO2 on time as a raised exponential.

This remains to be seen, of course, but it's important to point out that the trospospheric amplification prediction does not originate in the models but in the basic physics of radiative transfer in combination with the Clausius - Clapeyron relationship describing the change in atmospheric water vapor as a function of temperature.

Recall that my comment was meant to point out that one can estimate a sensitivity of temperature to CO2 without recourse to models.

As you can see, over periods of a few decades, modeled internal variability does not cause surface temperatures to change by more than 0.3 °C, and over longer periods, such as the entire 20th Century, its transient warming and cooling influences tend to average out, and internal variability does not cause long - term temperature trends.
