Sentences with phrase «usual temperatures over»

Map of air temperature anomalies for December 2009, at the 925 millibar level (roughly 1,000 meters [3,000 feet] above the surface) for the region north of 30 degrees N, shows warmer than usual temperatures over the Arctic Ocean and cooler than normal temperatures over central Eurasia, the United States and southwestern Canada.

Not exact matches

One, again, is changing wind patterns; in July, NSIDC noted that a strong - low pressure pattern over the Amundsen Sea during June had brought lower - than - usual temperatures.

They found that the business - as - usual scenario comes with large climate changes the world over and would create entirely new patterns of temperature and precipitation for 12 to 39 percent of Earth's land area.

About taking differences (current period figures less prior period figures) of anomalies: the anomalies are the value less the monthly mean (i.e., the mean for the particular month over the years, in this case 32 full years), as is the usual practice with climate data (most notably temperature).

The exposed open water caused by the wind divergence may absorb some additional sunlight and melt more ice than usual over the next few weeks (temperature - albedo feedback)[related NASA animation], but given that the sun is well on its way to setting for the winter, I think this effect will be fairly minimal.

Raw climate model results for a business - as - usual scenario indicate that we can expect global temperatures to increase anywhere in the range of 5.8 and 10.6 degrees Fahrenheit (3.2 to 5.9 degrees Celsius) over preindustrial levels by the end of the century — a difference of about a factor of two between the most - and least - severe projections.

Seems to disprove my theory above... they are perhaps just doing the usual «here is a proxy temperature record, now please look over here at the model «projections»..

Guest Post by Willis Eschenbach Richard Muller and the good folks over at the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature (BEST) project have released their temperature analysis back to 1750, and are making their usual unsupportaTemperature (BEST) project have released their temperature analysis back to 1750, and are making their usual unsupportatemperature analysis back to 1750, and are making their usual unsupportable claims.

For example, decision makers already have a good idea what will happen if no action to reduce CO2 emissions is taken: the «business as usual» scenario shows significant increases in temperature and changes in precipitation, leading to serious impacts over the next century.

Over that time, the globally averaged temperature difference between the depth of an ice age and a warm interglacial period was 4 to 6 °C — comparable to that predicted for the coming century due to anthropogenic global warming under the fossil - fuel - intensive, business - as - usual scenario.

The positive feedback of increased soil temperature leading to increased decomposition and therefore natural carbon emissions is a fairly modest contributor to the total projected business as usual carbon emissions over the century: average IPCC AR4 model land carbon storage changes due to climate change yielded a 63 ppm CO2 increase over the counterfactual by the year 2100.
