Sentences with phrase «warm extremes»

As it does so, you can see how it affects the measurements at the extremes - warm extreme temperatures become more common place, and cold extremes less common.

That does not mean we should do nothing, as the worst effects of warming extreme weather conditions and rises in sea levels are directly dependent on the extent of global temperature rise above 2C.

In northern North America the difference in the 20RV is positive as blocking is associated with warmer extreme cold temperatures.

Similarly, warm extreme weather phenomena have become more widespread and cold extreme phenomena have become rarer.

Indeed looking at the 3 years (2009 - 2011) only one small region of the tropical ocean in 2011 exceeds minus three standard deviations -LRB--3 sigma), whereas warm extremes (+3 standard deviations) occur with regularity in each year.

F. «The warming of the climate is consistent with observed increases in the number of daily warm extremes, reductions in the number of daily cold extremes and reductions in the number of frost days at mid-latitudes.

«That is exactly what's happening,» Schmidt said, «a lot more warm extremes and less cold extremes.»

A widespread reduction in the number of frost days in mid-latitude regions, an increase in the number of warm extremes and a reduction in the number of daily cold extremes are observed in 70 to 75 % of the land regions where data are available.

«Arguably, these cold extremes and warm extremes are the most important factors for human society.»

«It would be almost incredible, it'd take something very unusual not to have an increase in warm extremes,» he said.

Observations show widespread reductions in the number of frost days in mid-latitude regions, increases in the number of warm extremes (warmest 10 % of days or nights) and a reduction in the number of daily cold extremes (coldest 10 % of days or nights)(see Box TS.5).

If we saw the entire thing containing more and more energy, thermal energy — saw it retaining higher and higher temperatures — due to the nature of such we would not expect to see both colder and warmer extremes.

Finds that warm extremes in mean maximum and minimum temperature observed during the summer and warm seasons show a more pronounced increasing trend since the mid-1970s

I wasn't clear: ``... because the latter half of the graph has more frequent and deeper cold extrema (blue oval) than the earlier half's (red oval) warm extremes.

The phasing of warm events in the two regions is also variable, with some warm extremes in phase (1940 — 42, 1997 — 98), some with the tropics leading the CCS (1982 — 83, 1991 — 92), and the most recent warm extreme from 2014 — 16 where the CCS warming peaked about one year prior to the peak tropical El Niño warming.

An increase of daily temperature variability is observed during the period 1977 to 2000 due to an increase in warm extremes, rather than a decrease of cold extremes (Klein Tank et al., 2002; Klein Tank and Können, 2003).

Compared to previous HadEX / CMIP3 - based results, which identified human contributions to the observed warming of extreme temperatures on global and regional scales, the current results provide better agreement with observations, particularly for the intensification of warm extremes.

Spatial trend patterns differ for the warm and cold extremes, with the warm extremes showing continuous positive trends across the globe and the cold extremes exhibiting a coherent cooling pattern across the Northern Hemisphere mid-latitudes that has emerged in the recent 15 years and is not reproduced by the models.
