«These assessments of ice shelves need to be done regularly» to build up a time series of data — and ultimately to be able to separate a trend signal from the noise.

Not exact matches

But strategic leaders understand how to separate the signal from the noise, and corporate executives I talk to are far more interested in the macro trends that will impact the global economy — and their companies — throughout 2018 and beyond.

Nonetheless, even if the substantial recent trend in the AO pattern is simply a product of natural multidecadal variability in North Atlantic climate, it underscores the fact that western and southern Greenland is an extremely poor place to look, from a signal vs. noise point of view, for the large - scale polar amplification signature of anthropogenic surface warming.

Although one low year is not enough to tell if the sign of the trend is changing it is may be a sign that the climate change signal is starting to emerge from the noise of natural variability.

In order to understand the potential importance of the effect, let's look at what it could do to our understanding of climate: 1) It will have zero effect on the global climate models, because a) the constraints on these models are derived from other sources b) the effect is known and there are methods for dealing the errors they introduce c) the effect they introduce is local, not global, so they can not be responsible for the signal / trend we see, but would at most introduce noise into that signal 2) It will not alter the conclusion that the climate is changing or even the degree to which it is changing because of c) above and because that conclusion is supported by multiple additional lines of evidence, all of which are consistent with the trends shown in the land stations.

Thirty years is merely where the trends due to the signal emerge with high confidence from the noise.

Nonetheless, even if the substantial recent trend in the AO pattern is simply a product of natural multidecadal variability in North Atlantic climate, it underscores the fact that western and southern Greenland is an extremely poor place to look, from a signal vs. noise point of view, for the large - scale polar amplification signature of anthropogenic surface warming.

The enduring truth is that over time, since the AGW temperature signal is a secular rising trend, eventually the signal will emerge from the noise, and it will be harder to argue with the rhetorical wording alone.

As just some guy, I believe that I can remove the noise from a signal up to one third of the length of the trend by smoothing to the mean, and only improve the clarity of the signal.

Tellingly, Jones also noted (but was not quoted by the denial movement) that the probability of the 15 - year period showing a warming trend that refuted a null hypothesis was 0.94, and further that another year would likely increase to significance the power to discern signal from noise.

Until we can separate the signal (the trend) from the noise (short term variations), we should not be fooled into thinking that noise is signal.

The trick is that past data aren't considered as «noise», or only in limited amount, but rather as a significant «signal» that can be substracted from the observed data to get a significant trend.

Hurricane landfalling frequency is much less common than basin - wide occurrence, meaning that the U.S. landfalling hurricane record, while more reliable than the basin - wide record, suffers from degraded signal - to - noise characteristics for assessing trends.

The space - time structure of natural climate variability needed to determine the optimal fingerprint pattern and the resultant signal - to - noise ratio of the detection variable is estimated from several multi-century control simulations with different CGCMs and from instrumental data over the last 136 y. Applying the combined greenhouse gas - plus - aerosol fingerprint in the same way as the greenhouse gas only fingerprint in a previous work, the recent 30 - y trends (1966 — 1995) of annual mean near surface temperature are again found to represent a significant climate change at the 97.5 % confidence level.
