Are reconstructed pre-instrumental hemispheric temperatures consistent with instrumental hemispheric temperatures?
[1] Reconstructions of Northern Hemisphere near-surface temperatures from climate ‘proxy’ data such as tree rings, ice cores, and corals, suggest that late 20th century Northern Hemisphere mean warmth is anomalous in the context of the past several centuries and likely at least the past two millennia. Though substantial uncertainties in the paleoclimate reconstructions exist, these findings add...
متن کاملBorehole temperatures and tree rings: Seasonality and estimates of extratropical Northern Hemispheric warming
[1] We construct an extratropical reduced temperature–depth profile for land areas north of 20 N latitude from the global borehole temperature database compiled for climate reconstruction. The mean reduced temperature profile compares well with a time series constructed from an initial baseline temperature (0.6 ± 0.1 C) and the last 140 years of gridded annual surface air temperature data diffu...
متن کاملUnderestimation of volcanic cooling in tree-ring-based reconstructions of hemispheric temperatures
The largest eruption of a tropical volcano during the past millennium occurred in AD 1258–1259. Its estimated radiative forcing was several times larger than the 1991 Pinatubo eruption1. Radiative forcing of that magnitude is expected to result in a climate cooling of about 2 C (refs 2–5). This effect, however, is largely absent from tree-ring reconstructions of temperature6–8, and is muted in ...
متن کاملInstrumental Desires , Instrumental Rationality
The requirements of instrumental rationality are often thought to be normative conditions on choice or intention, but this is a mistake. Instrumental rationality is best understood as a requirement of coherence on an agent's non-instrumental desires and means-end beliefs. Since only a subset of an agent's means-end beliefs concern possible actions, the connection with intention is thus more obl...
متن کاملGestalt Hemispheric Differences 1 Running Header: Gestalt Hemispheric Differences Are There Hemispheric Differences in Visual Processes That Utilize Gestalt Principles?
Hemispheric differences in the visual system have been well-established, although their exact nature remains under study (Hellige 1990). Thus far, research has focused on the perception of whole objects or scenes. Van Kleeck and Kosslyn (1989) investigated the possibility of lateralization for Gestalt principles using an embedded figures task. They^ found an effect of lateralization, that parts...
