Sentences with phrase «term slr»

She also refutes the claim that any sub-sea destabilization is due to long - term SLR, not Climate Change.

Short term SLR won't change that much even by Hansen's worst - case scenario, and Hansen isn't saying that will happen, just that the existing data and paleo make it possible.

However, historic carbon emissions appear already to have put in motion long - term SLR that will endanger the continuity and legacy of hundreds more municipalities, and so long as emissions continue, the tally will continually increase.

The triggered case accordingly implies a weaker relationship between future emissions and long - term SLR.

Here we explore the challenges posed under different scenarios by long - term SLR in the United States, where highly accurate elevation and population data permit robust exposure assessments (15, 16).

Titus cites four 20th century tide gauge records for which NOAA has calculated long - term SLR rates ranging from 1.3 - 2.4 mm / year.

Not exact matches

There's a table to summarise the differences, positives and negatives, a table to input the meanings of key terms linked to them both, and an image of an SLR camera to be labelled.

Also, I note that by common usage the term «abrupt» (w.r.t. SLR) implies that «mainstream» experts would be surprised to observe such a response to AGW; nevertheless, the Earth's circulatory steams are inherently chaotic, and chaos theory clearly demonstrates that such systems can be subject to «strange attractors» that can increase the probability of occurrence of phenomenon towards the tail of a «fat - tailed» probability density function (PDF), such as that shown in Figure 3.

Therefore, retreat is the only long - term adaption strategy for SLR.

T0, 0 ranges from 0 to -10 K (or more) based on a Bayesian analysis: if it is less than about -0.4 K, that would imply that the long - term term of the semi-empirical equation is contributing to SLR for the entire reconstruction.

So for now, my conclusion is it will be very hard to still prevent 10 meters of SLR in the long term, even under strong mitigation, and there seems to be a real risk of 10 meters of SLR by 2300 and 25 meters by 3000 under BAU.

Goelzer et al (2012) is interesting too, when considering the risk of even longer - term and very large SLR: http://iopscience.iop.org/1748-9326/7/4/045401/article

David Werth # 7: For the question of long - term commitment of SLR see Foster & Rohling (2013): http://www.highstand.org/erohling/Rohling-papers/2013-Foster-PNAS-with-Supplement.pdf

Leuliette and Willis (2011) does however have the closure of the SLR in terms of steric and mass effects (fig3).

The paper suggests that long - term strategic adaptation plans for the full range of possible SLR need to be widely developed.

CEF Response: The S - Kv joint distributions are better discussed in terms of TCR or SLR and the cumulative distributions indicate the important distinctions.

Nonetheless, a recent probabilistic assessment based on IPCC projections and expert elicitations on ice sheet behavior assigns a 0.5 % chance that global SLR will exceed 6.3 m by 2200 under RCP 8.5 (46), suggesting that all but the highest committed levels discussed here could be attained in the relatively near term.

Projections of long - term committed SLR as a function of cumulative carbon emissions, with 66 % CIs, assuming (triggered case) or not assuming (baseline case) that eventual collapse of the WAIS is already inevitable.

By «committed» or «locked in» warming or sea level in a given year, we refer to the long - term effects of cumulative anthropogenic carbon emissions through that year: the sustained temperature increase or SLR that will ensue on a time scale of centuries to millennia in the absence of massive and prolonged future active carbon removal from the atmosphere.

I also like to remember acceleration in terms of inches / decade / decade, since it takes approximately 1 inch / decade / decade to reach 1 m of SLR by the end of the century.

Thus, we suggest that scientists and modelers who seek global warming signals should track how much heat the ocean is storing at any given time, termed global ocean heat content (OHC), as well as sea level rise (SLR).

Earthling - Long term observations show continuing acceleration of SLR, with shorter term (including multidecadal) variation superimposed.

Looks like there were blips in SLR but that the longer term temperature and sea level trends were already downward:

So in terms of worst plausible scenarios (per se reasonable to consider), Hansen's 21st century SLR isn't even possible in the real world.

It points out that as land ice is lost to the oceans, the earth's gravitational and rotational movements are disturbed, resulting in strong spatial patterns in SLR, which are termed «sea - level fingerprints».

«In terms of image quality the ZenFone Zoom can not only rival single - lens reflex (SLR) camera, judging from all the features it as well as outshine iPhone 6s Plus,» claims Asus Chairman, Jonney Shih.
