Sentences with phrase «term weather variation»

yet you hold great store by the first period and not the later because you say 15 years is long term climatic variation and 7 years is short term weather variation!!!!

Here I have used a 13 day gaussian filter to remove the short term weather variations.

Without human intervention, all climate indices would be locked at their 1860 mean value with nothing but short term weather variations.

Not exact matches

He has not really addressed the fact that the notion of climate, as distinct from the notion of weather, is not concerned with particular features of a single trajectory or history, but with the fact that there are some general features about certain kinds of time and system averages over many trajectories - and that these average features tend to show certain kinds of regularity or slow secular variation that are not apparent in a single trajectory (the term secular here has a technical meaning, not the common one of «not religious»).

«Current long term predictions indicate that these extreme weather variations will continue and situations such as the current flood events, and disruption caused, underline how adequate maintenance and funding of the network must be a fundamental part of UK transport policy.

They have shown that there is substantial genetic variation in nature for both long - term seasonal acclimation and short - term acclimation associated with rapid extreme weather events.

In other words, the meltdown could be explained by natural variations in the weather, not long - term climate trends.

The extreme cold weather observed across Europe and the east coast of the US in recent winters could be partly down to natural, long - term variations in sea surface temperatures, according to a new study published today.

Even so, our forecasting abilities must further improve for Montanans to better prepare for short - term variation in weather patterns and expected long - term impacts associated with climate change.

[Response: Uncertainty in the observations is very different from the uncertainty due to possible weather variations that might have happened but didn't (the dominant term in the near - future model spread).

But even if it had, there are short term variations in temperature associated with El Nino and La Nina events and other «weather» which imply that CO2 is not the only factor.

Again, the problem is seizing on any short - term variations in weather as evidence of climate change.

To understand the true significance of this temperature change, we must distinguish between natural weather cycles (such as the changing seasons), transitory climate variations (such as a temporary drought), and long - term climatic change.The earth's climate varies naturally for many reasons.

http://www.woodfortrees.org/plot/gistemp/from:2013 Even if there are long - term large - scale ongoing anomalies in the ocean or soil, I think the weather variation would be larger than such a signal, and that is essentially a large random perturbation.

Phenomena such as El Niño and La Niña — which warm and cool the tropical Pacific Ocean and cause corresponding variations in global wind and weather patterns — contribute to short - term variations in global temperatures.

Over the longer term, weather becomes random simply because there are small random variations in solar input (not to mention butterflies) and what matters is the statistics of the weather — climate.

As I can't comment all, I'll focus on this one: Over the longer term, weather becomes random simply because there are small random variations in solar input (not to mention butterflies) and what matters is the statistics of the weather — climate.

The primary domain for Earth's chaotic dynamics, then, is the weather — short term variations in local or regional atmospheric behavior.

The effects on sea circulation patterns and weather are complex and difficult to tease out from natural variation, requiring long - term observation.

It can thus be inferred that the short - term, weather driven variations introduce an asymmetric shift to a later restart to freezing.

Perhaps the sub-decadal escalator steps we see like the ones http://www.woodfortrees.org/plot/hadcrut4gl/mean:101/mean:103/plot/hadcrut4gl/mean:29/mean:31/plot/hadcrut4gl/from:1979/to:1988/trend/plot/hadcrut4gl/from:1987.5/to:1995.5/trend/plot/hadcrut4gl/from:1996.5/to:2001.5/trend/plot/hadcrut4gl/from:2003/to:2008/trend/plot/hadcrut4gl/last:72/trend from ’79 to» 88, ’87 to» 95, ’96 to» 01, ’03 to ’08 and in the last six years all forming part of the longest and sharpest sustained rising global interpolated surface weather station temperature rise on record tell us not to be overly interested in a short - term variation in what is, after all, much less measured and much more difficult to measure?

Very much like global temperatures, year - to - year variation is also a very noisy system, bouncing around based upon short term weather patterns.

While weathering of rock is a long - term answer, it's probably not what causes the variations within an ice age.

Climate is defined as long - term averages and variations in weather measured over a period of several decades.

If surface temperature variation is dominated by non-forced variations in how fast heat goes into the ocean, then the observed forcing is just a minor drift term in the range of weather we experience.

As such, there are external forcing events which have short term effects, while there are internal weather variations which have long term effects.

Defining Climate Climate = long term weather patterns... — Averages and variations in temp., precip., wind, etc..

13 Natural Climate Changes Seasons: are short - term periods of climatic change caused by regular variations in daylight, temperature, and weather patterns.

Seasons: are short - term periods of climatic change caused by regular variations in daylight, temperature, and weather patterns.
