Sentences with phrase «uses empirical observations»

On full climate sensitivity I have stated repeatedly that the empirical evidence is not strong, but every paper that is not technically so badly wrong that the results can be dismissed and that uses some empirical observations to estimate which values are unlikely presents empirical evidence on climate sensitivity — far from proof but evidence.

S: We use empirical observation.

However, climate scientists have indeed quantified the anthropogenic contribution to global warming using empirical observations and fundamental physical equations.

From 14,722 parent - child observations, they have found strong empirical evidence that reliance on welfare in one generation is likely to cause greater welfare use in the next generation.

The seven I focus on here — the wave equation, Maxwell's four equations, the Fourier transform and Schrödinger's equation — illustrate how empirical observations have led to equations that we use both in science and in everyday life.

Determining Empirical Stellar Masses and Radii Using Transits and Gaia Parallaxes as Illustrated by Spitzer Observations of KELT - 11b

Here lies some issues too: if a couple of studies being heavily relied upon are being used that have some unknown flaws the Bayes approach may or may not be able to correct for those, whereas direct empirical observations can better correct for such issues, and there are some other frequentist approaches, though much more tedious, can better control for such errors.

We recently published a study in Scientific Reports titled Comparing the model - simulated global warming signal to observations using empirical estimates of unforced noise.

They challenge this on rather solid empirical grounds and with physical arguments and data analysis that is every bit as scientifically valid as that used to support larger estimates, often obtaining numbers that are in better agreement with observation.

As others have noted, the IPCC Team has gone absolutely feral about Salby's research and the most recent paper by Dr Roy Spencer, at the University of Alabama (On the Misdiagnosis of Surface Temperature Feedbacks from Variations in Earth's Radiant Energy Balance), for one simple reason: both are based on empirical, undoctored satellite observations, which, depending on the measure required, now extend into the past by up to 32 years, i.e. long enough to begin evaluating real climate trends; whereas much of the Team's science in AR4 (2007) is based on primitive climate models generated from primitive and potentially unreliable land measurements and proxies, which have been «filtered» to achieve certain artificial realities (There are other more scathing descriptions of this process I won't use).

«Major improvements include updated and substantially more complete input data from the ICOADS Release 2.5, revised Empirical Orthogonal Teleconnections (EOTs) and EOT acceptance criterion, updated sea surface temperature (SST) quality control procedures, revised SST anomaly (SSTA) evaluation methods, revised low - frequency data filing in data sparse regions using nearby available observations, updated bias adjustments of ship SSTs using Hadley Nighttime Marine Air Temperature version 2 (HadNMAT2), and buoy SST bias adjustments not previously made in v3b.»

There are many «follow - up» arguments, but the key argument used by the rational skeptics of the IPCC CAGW premise is simply that it has not been corroborated by empirical scientific data, derived from actual physical observations and / or reproducible experimentation.

The fact that anomalies are being used instead of actual empirical observations means that some assumptions have been made.

But again there's no need to use theory when you have empirical observations.

This article uses the terms below to describe incidents of judicial humour as revealed through our empirical research, including interviews and a court observation study.
