Topography can also influence fire behavior by determining local microclimates — for example, variations in local snowpack, temperature, and

humidity in the snake's environment,
which should help the snake to shed the retained skin.
re Gavin @ 223 I know what the mean global temperature is (actually, I don't, see below) but the question was why is this a meaningful metric for looking at changes over time, when you could get the same global mean from very different distributions of temperature (eg
increase the poles, decrease the tropics)
which would have very different interpretations of energy balance (at least if I am right that
humidity matters)?
CO2's effect of stimulating plant growth and
increasing plant tolerance of aridity contributed to revegetating large areas of land that were desert at the LGM, compounding the effects of an
increase in atmospheric
humidity, reduced land / ocean surface ocean ration, and
increased warmth, all of
which combined caused the reduction of airborne dust and atmosperic albedo.
Heat stress is projected to

increased summer temperatures and
humidity.55, 61 One study projected an
increase of between 166 and 2,217 excess deaths per year from heat wave - related mortality in Chicago alone by 2081 - 2100.62 The lower number assumes a climate scenario with significant reductions in emissions of greenhouse gases (B1), while the upper number assumes a scenario under
which emissions continue to
increase (A2).
I then play a video from Texas Tech University climate scientist Dr. Katharine Hayhoe

Here's a study
which highlights the importance of
increased tropospheric
humidity (water vapour) in amplifying a warming effect during the afforementioned Paleocene — Eocene Thermal Maximum — ttp: / / www.nature.com/nature/journal/v432/n7016/full/nature03115.
This snowpack accumulation near the poles,
which gets its water via the Arctic and Antarctic oceans, that in turn rob it from equatorial latitudes of our oceans, also results in a reduction in the earth's spin axis moment of inertia and causes the spin rate to
increase as evidenced in the recent history of the rate at
which Leap Seconds are added to our calendar (see Wysmuller's Toucan Equation for more on this evidence that during this warm time with much greater polar
humidity, earlier seasonal, later seasonal and heavier snows are beginning to move water vapor from the oceans to the poles to re-build the polar ice caps and lead us into a global cooling, while man - made CO2 continues to
increase http://www.colderside.com/faq.htm).
«[T] he CMIP5 [climate model] results instead show an
increase in temperature and a much subdued
increase in specific
humidity,
which may be due to GHG - induced warming and subsequent
increases in the water vapor holding capacity of the atmosphere, respectively.
The averages of these seasonal trends are 0.20 C / decade and 0.07 hPa / decade
which correspond to a specific
humidity increase of 0.04 g / kg per decade and a relative
humidity reduction of 0.5 % / decade.
In recent decades the ITCZ has been migrating north moving it farther away from Easter Island and as that distance
increases absolute
humidity over Easter Island will necessarily decrease
which necessarily means in
increasing temperature delta between daytime high and nighttime low.
Is this point only about the radiative characteristics of the H2O vapour, and the assumption that relative and / or specific
humidity should rise thanks to CO2 - induced
increased evaporation,
which in turn would
increase downwelling heat radiation — or just the part that slightly hotter surface (due to CO2) also emits more heat to be trapped by the vater vapour?
Measurement of CO2 concentration is always problematic; the «Standard Dry Air» SDA basis of measurement and comparison is at standard temperature and pressure
which is a non-existent parameter; and as we are seeing, CO2 is not a well - mixed gas at all and will be defined by, amongst other variables, SH, or absolute
humidity; SH can vary from 0 to 5 % by volume of atmosphere; as the SH
increases, the absolute amount of other gases, including CO2, decreases; to say therefore that atmospheric concentrations of CO2 have remained stable and not been above 280ppm over the last 650my is fanciful; even if you assume past CO2 levels have not got above 280ppm the range of variation within that limit has been greater than the current
increase;
That mechanism is missing in the GCMs,
which increase specific
humidity with surface temperature but keep cloud cover parameterized and constant.
Over the ocean, the observed surface specific
humidity increases at 5.7 % per 1ºC warming,
which is consistent with a constant relative

humidity and many other personal factors.
And yes, greenhouse warming could be due to
increased humidity,
which in turn could be due to normal variability in the ocean surface temperature.
At the high - end scenario of global warming, in
which global average temperatures
increase to 8.46 degrees Fahrenheit above 1986 - 2005 average levels by 2100, the report found that «the combination of high temperature and
humidity in some areas for parts of the year is projected to compromise normal human activities, including growing food or working outdoors.»
Dave Archer's online model has an option to hold the relative
humidity fixed as you
increase the temperature of the atmosphere,
which allows you to explore this feedback.
Increased temperature will
increase the absolute
humidity according to the Clausius - Claperyon equation; a larger amount of water vapor will decrease the density of air, all else being equal,
which will
increase convection and the relative amount of adiabatic versus radiative cooling.
According to Isaac Held, climate models predict that the relative
humidity over oceans will have to rise about 1 % (a 5 %
increase in 1 — RH) to suppress surface evaporation
which would otherwise rise at 7 % / degC and create a surface energy imbalance (because DLR
increases with warming nearly as fast as OLR).
[1] Climate change creates new risks for human exposure to vector - borne diseases such as Zika, particularly in the United States where rising heat and
humidity are
increasing the number of days annually in
which disease vectors thrive.
One study, published in today's edition of the journal Nature, found that the overall
